Description
The Stryker Evacuation (EVAC) Chair is a paramount tool for enabling the emergency evacuation of injured or disabled individuals from multilevel facilities. Capable of accommodating individuals weighing up to 500 pounds (227 kg), it allows for the safe and efficient evacuation of all individuals in case of an emergency.
Designed with a patented Stair-TREAD™ system, this chair enables a single operator to facilitate evacuation down stairs for passengers up to 200 pounds (90 kg). For heavier passengers, up to 500 pounds (227 kg), two operators can efficiently and safely maneuver the chair.
Built with an extendable handle, the operator can maintain an upright, forward-facing posture, ensuring balanced operation, unobstructed line-of-sight, and ergonomic safety. Additional foot-end lift handles also extend, allowing two people to lift an evacuee over obstacles or up stairs.

- Easy set-up: The chair can be quickly prepared for use, saving precious time in an emergency.
- Color-coded controls: This feature allows for quicker operation, crucial during emergencies.

- Positive action locking mechanism: This provides passenger security during transport.
- Dual wheel locks: These provide more secure transfers, minimizing risk of accidents.
- Oversized rear wheels with sealed bearings: These ensure smoother transports, making evacuation less distressing for the evacuee.
- Compact storage size: This allows for convenient storage in corridors and closets, conserving space.
The chair is lightweight and made of durable aluminum. It is also power washable for easy cleaning and offers restraints with Fastex® buckles for added passenger security.
