SNIGEL Featherweight Stretcher -09

The SNIGEL Featherweight Stretcher -09 is an ultra-light, compact emergency stretcher designed for military medics and first responders who need reliable evacuation capability in the field. At only 500 grams, it’s one of the lightest stretchers available — yet strong enough to carry a fully equipped soldier weighing up to 150 kg.

Despite its minimal size, the Featherweight Stretcher provides exceptional practicality. When folded, it takes up as little space as a magazine pouch (10 × 10 × 5 cm), making it easy to carry in or on a medic bag at all times. It unfolds quickly for immediate use in critical rescue or evacuation scenarios, ensuring rapid casualty handling in any terrain.

Compact and Field-Ready

The Featherweight Stretcher is designed to be ready when seconds matter. It’s small enough to always be carried as part of a medic’s loadout and unfolds into a full-size rescue platform in moments. The recommended storage option is the SNIGEL Trauma Pouch for optimal accessibility and protection.
