Equipment
The ram is one of the pieces of rescue equipment that makes it possible to reach victims. This tool is
used during rescue operations to force structural elements or vehicle components apart. Through a
combination of a mechanical and a hydraulic plunger, the tool can quickly reach a large spreading
length while remaining small enough to fit into confined spaces. The first part is bridged with the
mechanical plunger. The remaining part is bridged with the hydraulic plunger, which also applies the
force. A hydraulic cylinder makes this plunger move axially. The high hydraulic pressure that is used
means these tools can apply enormous forces. The ram is produced as a hand tool that must be
operated by one person. One or more hoses connect the tool to a pump. Grip heads are installed on
both ends.
