StratLoad™ Attachment Points

The patented StratLoad™ Attachment Points allow any size carabiner to be used for attaching a lifting bridle while keeping both the carabiners and lifting bridle inside the litter's top rail. This design helps protect equipment from abrasion against cliffs, structures, and other obstacles. StratLoad™ attachment points also help prevent cross-gate and side loading, directing loads along the spine of the carabiner where strength is greatest. Constructed from 1/4 in (6 mm) thick material with a full-round inside radius, the design also supports soft attachments protected by the litter's top rail. StratLoad™ attachment points are standard on all stainless steel and titanium CMC litters.
