RES-Q-TUBE

The Res-Q Tube is used for grain bin rescue. Two of the greatest hazards of grain entrapment are:

1. The enveloping grain prohibits being able to pull the victim to safety without causing further injury
   
2. The pressure on the victim’s chest can eventually cause suffocation.
   

Res-Q-Tube is a four-section, metal, interlocking tube that can be placed around a victim engulfed in grain one piece at a time. The grain is then removed from inside the tube relieving the pressure on the victim’s chest and allowing the victim to breath. When the grain level is low enough the victim can be extracted.
