SKEDCO - Cobra Buckle, conversion kit

The challenge of finding a quick connect/quick release buckle for the Sked® has finally been solved.

Skedco now offers side Skedco/Cobra® buckles, manufactured in Austria, that are reliable and strong enough to meet the requirements for securing a patient in a Sked® stretcher without risk of breaking.

These buckles are rated for 3,000 pounds. They are durable and easy to use. When under tension, they are very difficult to release, making accidental release under tension no problem.

With these buckles, you no longer need to thread the webbing through the buckles when packaging a patient. Patient packaging is often completed in about half the time compared to using the original steel buckles.

Due to the cost of the buckles, they are offered as special orders for new Skeds® and as retrofit kits for existing Skeds®. However, with these buckles, you get everything you pay for. They significantly speed up patient packaging due to their ease of use.
