The Pompier Ladder Escape Belt with 18" Hook Extension is designed to provide firefighters and rescue personnel with dependable positioning, stabilization, and emergency escape capabilities while operating at height. Whether working from ladders, aerial devices, rooftops, or elevated rescue locations, this belt helps keep responders securely anchored while maintaining the mobility needed to perform critical tasks.
Constructed from high-strength woven nylon webbing and lock-stitched with high-tensile nylon thread, the belt is built to withstand the demanding conditions encountered during firefighting and rescue operations. The included 18-inch hook extension strap provides additional reach and flexibility when attaching to ladders, structural members, or other anchor points. A zinc-plated steel Pompier hook with automatic one-hand twist-lock operation allows quick and secure attachment, while the wide body pad and buckle strap enhance comfort during extended use.
Designed specifically for the fire service, the belt serves as both a work positioning device and an emergency self-rescue tool. The proven design meets current NFPA requirements and is manufactured in the USA for dependable performance in the field.
