HURST Launches the S 120 E Mini Cutter A Compact Powerhouse for Rescue Professionals
SHELBY, NC – April 1, 2025– HURST announces the launch of the S 120 E Mini Cutter, an innovative tool designed to meet the demanding needs of rescue and extrication professionals.
This compact extrication tool enables firefighters to quickly and precisely navigate tight spaces, providing a portable and efficient tool for extricating victims in confined or hard-to reach areas.
Bulkier tools can be challenging to use in tight spaces because their size and weight limit maneuverability, increasing the risk of injury, and delaying the rescue process due to difficulty accessing the victim. In such scenarios, the compact, lightweight, and highly maneuverable Mini Cutter ensures the safety of both the rescuer and victim.
The S 120 E Mini Cutter is poised to revolutionize the way first responders handle rescue operations in tight spaces. With its advanced design, the S 120 E Mini Cutter empowers first responders to navigate confined environments with unparalleled ease and precision, helping save time during high-pressure situations.
“We recognize that in rescue operations, every second counts, and that’s why we focused on creating a tool that is both compact and powerful," said Phil Griffin, Product Director of Rescue Tools. "The S 120 E Mini Cutter enables operators to cut through obstacles swiftly and efficiently, including pedals, steering wheels, and seat belts, allowing them to focus on what matters most—saving lives."
