Salient Characteristics for Extrication tools

The Ram is engineered with cutting‐edge features that blend robustness, efficiency, and smart connectivity to enhance extrication operations. Here are its most salient characteristics:

1. Intelligent Connectivity & Smart Dashboard.

2. Compact yet Powerful Design Designed for maneuverability in confined spaces, the Ram retracts to a length of 22.8 inches (579 mm) and extends up to 53.5 inches (1,359 mm), creating a wide rescue opening without compromising on handling. With a width of 5.5 inches (140 mm) and a height of 12.9 inches (327 mm), the tool’s balanced dimensions and a weight of only 41.9 pounds (without battery) make it highly portable and effective in tight, challenging environments.

3. Dual Piston Technology for Enhanced Force Equipped with dual piston systems, the ram delivers substantial hydraulic force to create precise and controlled extrication openings. For example, one piston provides a stroke of approximately 15.6 inches (403 mm) with a high support force (HSF) of around 28,600 lbs (127 kN), while a second piston contributes an additional stroke—culminating in an overall movement of about 30.7 inches (780 mm). This dual-action setup ensures both speed and power in critical rescue scenarios.

4. Efficient Brushless DC Motor & Turbo Mode At the heart of the Ram lies a brushless DC motor that not only guarantees efficient power use and a prolonged battery life but also operates quietly in high-demand situations.

Complemented by a turbo function—activated via an ergonomically designed star grip—the ram can deliver an extra burst of speed when rapid extrication is essential.

5. Designed for Extreme Environments Built with a watertight design, the ram is suitable for both fresh and saltwater applications. Its large waterproof battery option (typically a 9Ah battery with IP68 protection) is optimized for harsh conditions. Moreover, the smart dashboard features an indicator that confirms when a saltwater-capable battery is installed, ensuring that operators are aware of the tool’s suitability for the environment in which they’re working.

6. Ergonomic & Versatile Controls The Ram incorporates controls designed for ease of use under challenging conditions. Its star grip allows for tool actuation from virtually any position, and the inclusion of 360-degree rotating sharp claws guarantees a secure and precise grip on vehicle structures or other materials during extrication.
