Paratech Hydrafusion Strut Kit

At the core of the AutoShore is its automatic collar rotation system, which engages seamlessly along the full length of the strut’s AcmeThread section. This hands-off, automatic shoring mechanism eliminates the need for rescuers to manually adjust the collar near unstable loads, dramatically improving safety and speeding up deployment during critical operations.

Built for heavy duty rescue environments, the AutoShore delivers a 25,000 lb / 11.300 kg working load rating backed by a 4:1 safety factor, making it ideal for heavy vehicle lift, structural collapse, industrial entrapment, and heavy equipment rescue scenarios. With fewer manual steps, reduced user error, responders can maintain control without being placed in the load path.

To ensure long term reliability and accountability, the AutoShore Collar introduces an innovative overload indicator that imprints the tube end when the strut has experienced a load above 2:1 of its maximum rated load limit. This permanent visual marker gives crews instant and lasting insight into whether the strut has been overstressed and requires inspection or replacement.
