JUNK YARD DOG - SMALL ZSTRUT STYLE RESCUE STRUT SET

The Small ZSTRUT Style Rescue Strut Set revolutionizes stabilization operations by replacing traditional pin-based systems with an intuitive, quick-locking collar. This design enables rapid, precise deployment — often by a single rescuer — without the need for bulky cribbing or excessive hardware.

Operating on the “tension buttress” principle, each strut is self-contained and engineered for speed, control, and reliability. The collar mechanism allows you to pull up to extend, rotate for fine adjustment, and pull up again to retract — eliminating the need for external adjustment pins.

All essential accessories (heads, pickets, straps, pouches) are permanently attached, so responders can deploy straight from the unit without gathering separate components. With a compact, lightweight footprint, this strut set is optimal for cramped environments, tight access zones, or vehicles with restricted clearance.

Whether stabilizing small vehicles, reinforcing structure, or supporting extrication, the Small ZSTRUT set delivers a dependable, fast, and mission-focused solution in compact form.
