JunkYard Dog Industries is proud to announce the successful completion of third party testing of the Z STRUT™ this past week. Following the same style of testing as performed on the X TEND™ model, the Z STRUT™ was able to hold 11% additional force as compared to the X TEND™. Testing was performed at a certified laboratory under strict conditions. This third party verification of the rescue strut’s performance insures that rescuers using the JYD rescue struts can depend on their safety rating.
The ZipNut® collar and inner bar was tested as well and reached 27,428 pounds of force before testing was stopped. After testing, the ZipNut® collar performed like new. Stainless Hex Bolts
JunkYard Dog Industries will continue to rate the strut at 10,000 pounds and a safe working load limit of 5,000 pounds.
These tests leave no doubt of the integrity of design and manufacturing of both the Rescue Strut products.
With the introduction of the Z STRUT ™ , the rescue strut concept will be changed. Based on the current strut system, the Z STRUT ™ brings a revolutionary concept – No More Adjustment Pin. To replace the typical adjustment pin, JunkYard Dog Industries ™ paired up with the people from ZipNut® Technologies to have exclusive use of their patented device. By placing a double ZipNut® collar where the pin should be, and replacing the inner tube with a threaded stainless steel solid bar, an extremely easy and revolutionary system was created.
The Z STRUT ™ is extended like this: Simply pull-up on the head and the threaded rod “zips” out of the square tube. When you stop pulling, it automatically locks in place. If you require incremental adjustments in height and/or tension, simply rotate the collar and the threaded rod moves accordingly. To retract the extension, just pull-up on the collar, the threaded rod is released and can be dropped back into the outer tube. (Patent Pending)
The ZipNut® makes the Z STRUT ™ even Simpler to use.
