Fire Swatter Alaska

The Fire Swatter Alaska is a versatile firefighting tool that maximizes efficiency and minimizes physical strain during wildfire combat. Its 45º angle in work mode facilitates impactful contact with the ground, enhancing work efficiency and providing the user with increased performance and comfort.

Features

• Irregular Terrain Adaptability: The blade, composed of 5 horizontal and 6 vertical blades that rotate on a central axis, adapts well to uneven terrain. The 45º angle in work mode further aids in efficient ground impact.
• Dual Functionality: The tool serves two primary functions - suffocation (horizontal leaves) and scraping (vertical blades).
• Less Physical Wear, Greater Efficiency: The tool features a telescopic aluminum handle that can be extended to different heights, providing more significant absorption of impacts against the ground and preventing impact on hands and arms. This design increases power and performance by leveraging the inertia of the flexible bar.
• Comfortable Cover: The tool has a small cover that facilitates and speeds up its transport. It features an adaptable hanging strap, allowing you to have your hands free to work with another tool while the fire pack is transported.
• Folding Head: The head features a lock and turn system so the flapper can be folded down against the handle to reduce the tool volume when carried. The tool measures 36.2" (92 cm) and can be carried in a backpack to free up hands or is small enough to be helicopter-transported without sacrificing valuable space.
