HURST Jaws of Life, Inc., launched six new tools, including cutters, combination tools, and spreaders. The SP 777 Spreader is slimmer and lighter than its predecessor, the SP 510, and perfectly suited for high-strength steel. Like the SP 777, the SP 777E2 Spreader from the HURST Jaws of Life eDRAULIC line has a single integrated cylinder body design and large blade opening.
The intuitive blade design of the S 312 and S 312E2 cutters provides a powerful cut while increased cutting force and fast opening and closing action ensure a quick rescue. With a compact cylinder body design, the SC 358 and SC 358E2 bring increased pulling force to the rescue scene. All six tools feature the ergonomically designed star grip for tool actuation from almost any gripping position, and a dead man control valve reverts to the neutral position if a worker’s hand slips from the control. www.jawsoflife.com, 800-537-2659
HME Ahrens-Fox, Inc., Ahrens-Fox Stainless Steel Centrifugal Pumps are for installation in all HME Ahrens-Fox fire apparatus. They feature a corrosion-resistant stainless steel volute case to extend service life and performance while reducing the need for anode maintenance typically found in iron case volutes. The stainless steel volute case is nearly three times more resistant to damage from cavitation and six times more resistant to wear or damage from pumping abrasive materials.
The construction of the pumps incorporates helical drive train gearing for quieter operation and double taper roller bearings supporting the shafts. These design elements allow a transfer-case rating of 19,500 ft-lbs in the AF-2000SS, 2,000-gpm model. The line includes 1,000-, 1,250-, 1,500-, 1,750-, and 2,000-gpm models, designated as the AF-1000SS, AF-1250SS, AF-1500SS, AF-1750SS, and AF-2000SS, respectively. www.firetrucks.com, 616-534-1463
The Scott Sight software release includes a new standby mode that provides firefighters with the ability to enable and disable live thermal video on the in-mask display without removing the face piece. Additional enhancements in the software release include streamlined methods for powering the in-mask display and thermal imaging camera on and off.
Customers who purchased the first version of Scott Sight will have the opportunity to update their software to take advantage of the latest enhancements. www.scottsafety.com, 704-291-8300
