AMKUS Rescue Systems has introduced a line of high performance, battery powered and twin-lined rescue tools. The cutters, spreaders and combi-tools are constructed from solid aluminium and are ready for service in the severe duty challenging first responders.

The new battery powered ION tool’s onboard pump system delivers amazingly fast performance under both loaded and unloaded conditions.

The tools are compact to access tight spaces and require less room on apparatus. In addition, they utilise the DEWALT FLEXVOLT platform, so the affordable batteries can be shared with other fire rescue tools like saws, lights and drills.

Like the ION tools, the new AMKUS LINE tools bring superior operator safety and performance to a family of tools long recognised as versatile and reliable. The all-metal bodies include ergonomic operator controls and the ability to reposition the tool at any time with minimal effort.

According to Kyle Smith, AMKUS president, “What really sets these tools apart, both ION and LINE, is their ability to deliver reliable performance in real world extrication scenarios. They’re powerful, quick, and versatile.”
