Saber® Rescue 22253

THE RIGHT MATERIALS FOR THE RIGHT PURPOSE

Pierce selects every material with one question in mind: Will it perform the task it needs to perform? For example, we use 304L stainless steel because it’s low in carbon and its excellent atmospheric corrosion resistance makes it perfect as exterior body sheet material and ideal for welding. For a lightweight option, Pierce chooses the highest quality aluminum. It’s a heavy-duty performance rescue body that’s half the weight of a stainless steel body. With a combination of extrusions, sheet materials and formed materials,The leader in custom chassis for good reason Pierce chooses the right configuration depending on the truck model being built.

WORKMANSHIP IN EVERY DETAIL

Pierce uses a 6-step finishing paint process that provides corrosion protection and still maintains environmental safety standards. Holes are drilled BEFORE painting, and components are mounted after, so the painted surface is never compromised. Plus, the graphic capabilities at Pierce are second-to-none, even using real gold leaf to ensure your vehicle conveys the image and messages your community deserves.
 

Considerations for a Non-Walk-In:

• Require plenty of storage space for rescue tools and equipment
• Require access to items from both sides of the truck
• Require a breathing air compressor for SCBA bottle refilling operations
• Require storage space for long tools and equipment

Take control of any incident—command or vehicle crew cabs

Consider all the incredible features of a Pierce Rescue. Now, add the ability to carry additional crew members and/or establish an incident command area for controllers. We can create an area for your computer set-up, providing you with online access, vital weather related information, or critical HazMat facts. Plus, you’ll have enough space to handle paperwork, maps, etc. Again, depending on your needs, a command center can be located at the back of the cab, in the front compartment or at the back of the vehicle.
 

Your gigantic toolbox on wheels

Storage. It’s why you need a rescue in the first place. We’ll help you choose from our huge selection of compartment storage options to best optimize the space available. Select from one-way or two-way slide-out utility trays; 30-degree slide-out tilt-down trays; special storage bins and drawers; air bag and ladder storage racks; slide-out tool boards; and many other options.

Have you ever taken pride in your truck’s organization? You will with a Pierce Rescue. Our unparalleled attention to fit and finish is an art form—using world-class engineering even in the smallest details of our storage units. Unsurpassed efficiency is built into every inch of your Rescue. All the tools and specialized equipment you depend on will be where you need them, doing
what they’re supposed to, how they’re supposed to do it.

 

• Custom-engineered extrusions are the foundation of all sliding trays
• Tray bases are 3/16" aluminum for strength
• Steel rollers with ball-bearing centers assure ultra-smooth extension and retraction
• Latches are integral to the extrusion and snap into a locked position with a secure “click”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

What types of incidents do you handle?
Are you set up to manage situations when you are running directly off the truck? Do you need more than 100' of hose? Is portability an issue?

Many factors affect the use of hydraulic tools. We help you sift through your needs and prepare you for any situation.

1) Hose

2) Hose reels of different lengths to get tools out where they’re needed

      --Ceiling-mount on trucks with lap doors and/or roof hatches

      --Wall-mount applications

3) Tools: cutters, spreaders, combination, rams

4) Power supply to take tools out into the field

       --Electric motor driven

       --Engine driven

       --PTO driven

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5) Storage of the tools themselves

Pierce is focused on your health and safety, developing the industry’s most advanced and comprehensive safety program—360º Protection From Every Angle™.

• Pierce’s TAK-4® Independent Front Suspension provides the ability to handle rough roads and stop 23% quicker than an identical truck using a straight axle with 15" rotors.
• Pierce’s Side Roll Protection™ System monitors truck motion. In the event of a side roll, it cinches the occupants’ seatbelts, pulls the suspension seat to its lowest position, and inflates side airbags and air curtains. Rear air curtains are optional (standard in Saber)

Dozens of other safety features include the seat belt warning system, collision avoidance system, lateral g-roll indicator, noise insulation and soundproofing, tinted windows, Roll Stability Control (RSC) auto braking system and the new Tire Protection System—a tire monitoring system and a tire blowout wheel protection band.

Pierce Rescue chassis are researched, engineered, tested and built with industry-leading safety features and equipment, helping increase safety for emergency response professionals in virtually every situation. Pierce has you protected—from every angle.
