NRS Rescue Raft Series (R120 / R130 / R140)

NRS Rescue Raft Series (R120, R130, R140): Built for Swiftwater Professionals

When facing unpredictable swiftwater scenarios, professional rescue teams need equipment designed for performance and preparedness. The NRS Rescue Raft series (available in R120, R130, and R140 models) is engineered to meet these demands, providing agile handling and ample capacity for crew and gear.

These rafts are constructed using advanced-formula PVC material with state-of-the-art seam welding, offering superior abrasion resistance and air retention for demanding use. The foundation is a high-pressure system designed for performance:

• High-Pressure Floor & Thwarts: A 4-inch (10.2 cm) thick drop-stitch floor insert and 7.75" x 10.5" (19.7 cm x 26.7 cm) drop-stitch thwarts inflate to a rigid 8-10 psi (0.55-0.69 bar), giving the boat stiff and responsive handling crucial in dynamic water.
• Multiple Air Chambers: Four outer chambers plus the floor and thwarts (total 7 chambers for R120/R130, 8 for R140) provide significant flotation.
• Safety Valves: Each inflation chamber features a high-quality Leafield C7/D7 valve and a pressure relief valve to prevent over-inflation damage.

Designed for Rescue Operations:

• Reinforcements: Frame wear patches protect the tops of the tubes, while extra material reinforces the tube bottoms. The floor insert sits in a zippered pocket made of heavy-duty PVC.
• Attachment & Handling: Numerous stainless steel D-rings and strategically placed handles offer abundant options for gear tie-down and portaging.
• Lowering Capability: Floor slots and specific D-ring placements allow webbing to be inserted for suspending and lowering the raft.
• Crew Stability: Foot cups and interior handles provide secure anchoring for crew members in rough conditions.
• High Visibility: Reflective patches, hi-vis fabric sections, and logos enhance visibility on the water.
• Removable Thwarts: The Batten Attachment Thwart system allows for easy removal or repositioning of thwarts.
