Vierfach gefaltete Medevac-Trage

How much weight can the Quad-Fold Medevac Litter support?

The Quad-Fold MedEvac Litter has a tested payload capacity of 1,200 lb (544 kg) — among the highest payload ratings of any commercial rescue litter at its weight class. At just 13.5 lb, this provides an exceptional payload-to-weight ratio that allows two responders to carry extremely heavy patients or patients with extensive equipment without structural risk.

What prevents the Quad-Fold Litter from accidentally collapsing during a carry?

NAR's patented joint configuration mechanically locks the Leg Crossbar in the open position when the litter is deployed. This prevents unintentional collapsing during dynamic carries — critical during stairwell evacuations, vehicle loading, and high-movement scenarios where litter motion could otherwise trigger an unlocked crossbar to fail.

What is the difference between the Black and Orange Quad-Fold Litter?

The Black variant (SKU 60-0051) is finished in subdued Black/Green suitable for tactical law enforcement, military MEDEVAC, and low-visibility applications. The Orange variant (SKU 60-0052) features high-visibility Orange/Black coloring designed for civilian EMS, fire departments, and mass casualty incident command environments where equipment must be quickly identified in chaotic, crowded scenes.

Can IV fluids be administered while the patient is on the Quad-Fold Litter?

Yes. The MedEvac Litter includes six IV attachment points along the frame, allowing IV bags and lines to be secured during transport. This enables continuation of IV therapy during evacuation — important for critical patients receiving fluid resuscitation or medication infusions who cannot be interrupted during movement.

What is the folded size of the Quad-Fold MedEvac Litter?

The Quad-Fold MedEvac Litter folds to H 21.5 in. × W 8.5 in. × D 7.5 in. This compact folded format makes it compatible with dedicated litter carriers like the NAR RIG Series Assault Litter Carrier, vehicle medical racks, and facility trauma caches where maximizing storage density is a priority.
