KC Supply's Grain Rescue Tube
KC Supply’s rugged aluminum grain rescue tube is designed to prevent a trapped worker from becoming another statistic. Each tube’s sections acts as a shield so that the grain (which is pressing against the victim) can be removed. Once the grain level is reduced, the victim can be extricated.
Two Models Available
Four-Section or Six-Section
