Heavy-Duty Backpack for Hose and Equipment
Introducing the VFT Equipment Carry Haul Backpack, designed specifically for forest firefighters who need to transport heavy loads with ease. This robust cargo backpack is ideal for carrying hoses, motor pumps, tanks, and other essential equipment required for extinguishing wildland fires.
Key Features
Ergonomic Design: Inspired by mountain backpack load systems, the VFT backpack features a padded harness that ensures comfortable carrying of heavy items during demanding firefighting operations.
Cushioned Structure: Constructed with a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) frame, the backpack is covered with unique cushioning to protect the shoulders, back, and waist from strain.
Adjustable Size: The belt is available in up to five sizes, adaptable to suit each individual's build for a secure fit.
Removable Canvas Bag: This backpack has the capacity to hold four 25-metre hoses. The front opening allows for easy unloading of hoses one by one without removing the backpack. The canvas flap seals the top, enabling additional storage of clothing, food, beverages, helmets, and other accessories. The removable canvas bag also allows for transporting heavy loads, such as fuel tanks or motor pumps.
Safe Material Unloading: The progressive anchoring system ensures hoses can be unloaded without causing other items to shift or fall, facilitating a safe and effective operation.
Reinforced Upper Handle: The top of the structure is cushioned and reinforced to protect the nape of the neck from impact. A grab system at the bottom makes it easy to load and unload the backpack, allowing for seamless transfers between team members.
Enhanced Visibility: Equipped with super safe reflectors that provide 360-degree visibility, ensuring your position is easily seen in forested areas.
