Evacuation Raft.
A variety of Evacuation Rafts in differing styles and sizes.
IONIC Urban Raft (red)
The IONIC Urban Flood Raft has been specifically developed for Urban Flood Evacuations where operational size is important, especially in built up locations. The Urban Raft is designed to accommodate 6 persons with a buoyancy capacity of over 1000KG thanks to its large capacity Sponson Tubes delivering maximum buoyancy and stability. It can be paddled in swift water, tethered or most commonly waded through flood water for the evacuation of casualties.
Manufactured in Orca® Hypalon the Urban Raft delivers unrivalled durability compared to PVC constructed models. It boasts an Orca® 6” Drop Thread Deck which inflates to 6psi providing a stable platform. The Deck is raised from the outer floor skin reducing the risk of getting wet inside the raft. The Deck is also overlayed with a Hypalon coating providing a safe/hard wearing non-slip platform.
The raft is fitted with internal and external lifelines, protective sponson patches and ten tethering points located around the raft, four at each side and one at either end.
The Urban Raft is designed for inflation using a compressed air cylinder fitted with the IONIC Compact Inflation Kit which is recommended for rapid inflation and quick deployment.
