Rescue42 - The Ripper™ Glass Removal Tool Kits

As laminated automotive glass becomes more common, first responders need tools built to overcome today's vehicle rescue challenges. The Rescue42 The Ripper™, paired with the Milwaukee® M18™ FUEL™ 1/4" Hex Impact Driver (Model 2953-22), provides a fast, controlled, and effective method for cutting laminated side windows, helping crews gain access to patients or unlock vehicle doors in seconds.

Designed specifically for emergency services, The Ripper™ uses the power of a standard impact driver to cut laminated glass while allowing rescuers to remain within the vehicle's safe cutting zone. The integrated piercing tip penetrates only about one inch, helping reduce the risk of injuring occupants during rescue operations.

A 360° rotating cutter head allows comfortable operation from either side of the vehicle, while the integrated Resqme® rescue tool provides additional capability with a window punch and seat belt cutter. The blade can also be operated manually in emergency situations, ensuring the tool remains useful even if battery power is unavailable.

Because The Ripper™ works with popular Milwaukee®, DeWalt®, and Makita® impact drivers, there are no proprietary batteries to purchase or maintain. If your department changes cordless platforms in the future, the interchangeable interface cone system helps reduce replacement costs.
