Little Garry is Right... TNT is JUNK!
Holmatro... ok.... HURST Number One for a reason.... dont just ask salesmen about them as technical people... call code4usa for answers... or visit code4usa.com

To talk about all things related to vehicle extrication.
Not USAR. Not Confined Space. Not SAR. Not BA. Not Swift Water. Not Trench.
Vehicle extricaiton only....

Stay safe

hey Mike
One Question for you..... what if the engineer drives like a maniack and blows stop signs and stop lights.... I agree it is your licence and you must protect that as well.... but if the officer doesnt have ultimate control of the vehicle....

My address is Bfdgoat2@verizon.net. When we picked out these tools we had 5 companies Hurst, halmatro,genesis,amkus and tnt. The tnt finnishes last but we had a deputy chief that likes the salesman and we where stuck. We wanted hurst/centaur but this guy was a prick. After it was said and done he ended up spending more for this garbage that did not work then he would have spent on hurst.
Thanks Little Gary

- Hi Pete:
Just to let you know that our TNT garbage failed again at a extrication. The cutters would not evan cut the hinges. Just thought I would let you know. I am trying to get our department to change out these tools with ones that work. Looking at Hurst, Genesis, and Halmatro again. We have had TNT repairman at our station and he keeps saying that the pressures are ok and cannot figure out why they do not work. And I keep telling them that when you are the cheapest, lightest weight tool and the weakest on the market you ussually cannot figure it out when you start with JUNK in the first place.

Welcome to the family where the language and reasoning important the Border is not in our work is to save lives regardless of color, religion or social position, much less. The important thing in our work does not need language to communicate, or borders to help.
Greetings from Mexico.
you’re new friend Filiberto.
