Frequently asked questions

Is the low center of gravity design highly stable?

Yes, the UMF Medical SS8345 is specifically engineered for superior stability through its low center of gravity design. This feature is achieved by several components:

  • Wide Stance: It utilizes a wide 22.5-inch (57.2 cm) wheel base diameter.
  • Robust Construction: The base is a heavy-duty four-leg design constructed from 3/8” steel.

This robust construction minimizes the risk of tipping, even when the telescopic stainless steel rod is extended. The pole supports a maximum weight capacity of 40 lb (18 kg) when adjusted to a height of 6 feet.

Does the height adjustment lock securely?

Yes, the UMF Medical SS8345 I.V. pole features a highly secure height adjustment system. This security is achieved through a dual locking mechanism:

  • Positive-locking hand wheel: This is the primary mechanism used to set and hold the desired height.
  • Friction knob: This auxiliary knob reinforces the lock, providing extra security and ensuring the telescopic stainless steel rod stays firmly in place, preventing accidental slippage during use.
What is the maximum stable weight capacity?

The UMF Medical SS8345 I.V. Pole offers a high stable load capacity, thanks to its low center of gravity design and robust four-leg base constructed from 3/8” steel. * Maximum Weight Capacity: This pole can safely support a maximum load of 40 lb (18 kg). * Condition: This capacity rating is specific to when the pole is extended to a height of 6 feet.

What is the adjustable height range?

The telescopic stainless steel rod provides a secure height adjustment range from 68 inches (172.7 cm) (compressed length) up to 96 inches (243.8 cm) (extended length). Adjustment is secured using a positive-locking hand wheel and an auxiliary friction knob.

Is the base wide enough for excellent stability?

Yes, the UMF Medical SS8345 is engineered for superior stability and features a low center of gravity design.

Key specifications ensuring its robust stability include:

  • A broad 22.5-inch (57.2 cm) wheel base diameter.
  • A heavy-duty, four-leg base constructed from durable 3/8” steel.

This robust construction minimizes the risk of tipping, even when the telescopic stainless steel rod is fully extended (up to 96 inches).

Does the pole use smooth-rolling casters?

Yes, the UMF Medical I.V. pole is equipped with quality casters designed for smooth transport and easy maneuverability in clinical settings.

Key details include:

  • Caster Type: Four 3-inch (7.6 cm) swivel casters.
  • Stability: The casters work in conjunction with the robust, low center of gravity, four-leg steel base, ensuring stability even during movement.
Is the stainless steel rod durable?

Yes, the UMF Medical SS8345 I.V. pole is engineered for high durability and stability, making it ideal for demanding clinical environments.

Key features contributing to its strength include:

  • Stainless Steel Rod: The telescopic vertical pole is made of durable stainless steel, which ensures longevity and is compatible with standard cleaning and sterilization protocols.
  • Heavy-Duty Steel Base: Stability is anchored by a low center of gravity design featuring a robust four-leg base constructed from heavy-duty 3/8” steel.
  • Secure Locking: The pole uses a positive-locking hand wheel and an auxiliary friction knob to secure the height adjustment (between 68 and 96 inches), further enhancing operational stability.
How many IV hooks are included?

The UMF Medical SS8345 I.V. pole is equipped with two stainless steel hooks. These durable hooks are located at the top of the telescopic stainless steel rod, designed for safely supporting intravenous fluid bags and solutions.

Does the base feature durable steel construction?
