• Robust Construction: The frame is precision TIG-welded stainless steel for exceptional longevity.
• Reinforced Lifting: Features double tubing at the head and foot ends, crucial for safety during vertical raise/lower operations.
• Enhanced Handling: The top rail is a full 1-inch (25 mm) diameter for easier grip and control during prolonged carrying.

Yes, the Ferno Titan Basket Stretcher is designed to be compatible with any Ferno backboard.

Yes, the Ferno Titan Stainless Steel Basket Stretcher comes standard with four rescue-rated restraint straps.

These straps are essential to ensure optimal patient stabilization and security during demanding technical rescue operations.

Yes, the Ferno Titan is specifically engineered for high-performance technical rescue scenarios, designed to meet and exceed the rigorous US Military specification MIL-L-37957A.Its robust construction and features ensure reliability in the most demanding environments:

• Extreme Strength: The stainless steel frame is TIG-welded and tested to handle a static load threshold of 2,500 lb (1,134 kg).
• Vertical Rescue Ready: Features double-tubing reinforcement at the head and foot ends for vertical operations, and patented StratLoad attachment points for secure lifting bridle rigging.
• Enhanced Handling: A full 1” (25 mm) diameter top rail provides easier grip and handling during prolonged carries.
• Durability and Patient Comfort: Includes UHMW-PE back support (which resists splintering) and replaceable HDPE netting for essential water and air flow, ideal for water rescue or high-angle work.
• Operational Flexibility: Available in both one-piece and two-piece configurations, with the two-piece model facilitating easier transport for helicopter rescue operations.

Yes, the Ferno Titan Stainless Steel Basket Stretcher is available in four versatile configurations, allowing rescuers to select the best option for their specific operational needs.

The configuration depends on two main design factors:

Stretcher Body Type (Storage & Transport)

• One-Piece: Provides maximum structural rigidity for routine use.
• Two-Piece: Designed to split into two sections, facilitating easier storage and carrying. This configuration is ideal for helicopter rescue and compact transport.

Profile Design (Access)

• Regular: Standard dimensions for typical rescue scenarios.
• Tapered: Features a narrower profile, significantly improving maneuverability and access in confined areas or tight passages.

The Ferno Titan utilizes patented StratLoad attachment points for integrating lifting bridles. These specialized points are engineered to ensure a secure and reliable connection, which is essential for safety during technical rescue operations, such as vertical hoisting and lowering.

The patient surface of the Ferno Titan Stretcher is specifically engineered for optimal permeability and rapid drainage, utilizing high-quality materials for performance in technical rescue:

• Replaceable Netting: Constructed from durable High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), the netting allows for essential air and water flow, preventing water pooling and aiding in quick drying.
• Back Support: The integrated back support is made of Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE), which guarantees high durability and ensures it will not splinter during rugged use.

The Ferno Titan Stainless Steel Basket Stretcher comes with a 2-year warranty against defects in material and workmanship.

Yes, the Ferno Titan Stretcher is engineered for high-demand technical rescue, featuring specific attachment points and including essential restraints upon purchase.

Included Patient Restraint

Your purchase includes four rescue-rated restraint straps necessary for immediately securing the patient during transport.

Advanced Rigging & Compatibility

The Titan is built with the patented StratLoad attachment points which ensure a secure connection for lifting bridles during vertical or horizontal maneuvers. It is also compatible with several specialized Ferno products to enhance functionality:

• Lifting Bridle: For hoisting and lowering operations, it is compatible with the Ferno 418-1 Adjustable Lifting Bridle (sold separately).
• Flotation Collar: For swiftwater and marine rescue, it supports the Ferno 471 Flotation Collar (sold separately).
• Backboard Compatibility: The stretcher is designed to accommodate any standard Ferno backboard for comprehensive patient immobilization.
