On an industrial site, the patient isn’t a 70 kg hiker with a twisted ankle. It’s a 140 kg construction worker in steel-toed boots, a tool belt, and a hard hat who collapsed twelve floors up on a partially finished high-rise. Standard basket stretchers top out around 160 kg, and that’s without factoring in the dynamic loads from a vertical lift. The AM-BS007 is engineered for exactly this scenario: 270 kg load capacity, a reinforced stainless steel frame with thicker-wall tubing, and 8-inch solid wheels that don’t care about rebar, gravel, or concrete dust.
The frame uses 304 stainless steel with an additional cross-brace at the midpoint and reinforced corner gussets at all four lift points. The wheel undercarriage is heavier gauge than our BS010 model, with larger axle bearings and a locking mechanism that can take the impact of a loaded stretcher being set down on uneven ground. We tested the frame to 350 kg static load before any permanent deformation—the 270 kg working limit gives you a generous safety margin for dynamic forces during hoist operations.
At 266 cm extended length, the BS007 is longer than standard basket stretchers to accommodate taller patients without forcing their feet against the footplate. The mesh body is the same polyethylene-coated design as our other baskets—drain holes, abrasion resistance, and strap points at six positions. The 8-inch wheels are solid rubber on steel hubs, rated for continuous rolling on rough surfaces. Folded dimensions are 226 x 66 x 29 cm, and the unit weighs 17.2 kg net.
The key difference between the BS007 and our BS010 wheeled basket is capacity and duty cycle. The BS010 is designed for venues, airports, and events where patients are typically ambulatory-sized adults and the terrain includes finished floors and pavement. The BS007 is for industrial rescue, construction site medical teams, offshore platforms, and mining operations—anywhere the patient profile skews heavier and the ground underfoot actively hates your equipment. If you’re extracting someone from a gravel pit or a steel mill floor, the BS010’s lighter-duty wheels will be a liability; the BS007’s reinforced undercarriage and larger bearings are built for that environment from the start.
I keep these in stock in Shanghai with a typical lead time of seven to ten business days for bulk orders.
