HEAVY DUTY TRIPOD

Heavy Duty Tripod – MK7

The MK7 Heavy Duty Tripod is a professional EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) tool designed to enable bomb disposal operators to safely and remotely lift suspected improvised explosive devices (IEDs) weighing up to 750 kg from confined spaces such as car boots, drainage holes, or other recessed locations.

The tripod features three-section telescopic legs that can be adjusted to the required height for flat or sloped terrain and locked securely in place. Each leg is equipped with a self-leveling foot, which can be stabilized on hard surfaces using sandbags or pegged into soft ground using the supplied pegs. This ensures maximum stability during lifting operations.

The top of the tripod is fitted with a triple block pulley system with bearings for smooth lifting. A rope with a karabiner at one end runs through the triple block to the lifting tackle, allowing the operator to raise the suspect object safely. An additional triple block with a jammer is installed at the base of one leg, ensuring that the lift is controlled from the base and preventing the tripod from tipping over.

This robust, non-magnetic tripod is an essential tool for EOD teams, providing safe and controlled remote lifting for heavy and potentially dangerous items.
