A perfect manikin for ‘snatch rescues’ in the higher temperatures of a firehouse, aircraft fuselage or shipping container. The Firehouse Manikins demonstrate a good balance between temperature and abrasion resistance. They are designed predominantly for BA snatch rescue and fire cell training in firehouses. The Firehouse Manikins will easily withstand temperatures of around 160°C at floor level (400°C at the ceiling!) for a prolonged period—they will deteriorate if placed too close to naked flames or in excessive temperatures, just as any fire kit would!
Features & Benefits
- Anatomically correct weight distribution gives the ‘feel’ of an unconscious casualty.
- Strong enough to be buried under concrete or steel lintels—Overall, the meta-aramid/para-aramid blend is not as tough as the Polyester version used in the Duty range. However, these manikins can still be used for general training exercises.
- The neck can fit an immobilisation/extrication collar to promote proper casualty care.
- Soft body joints eliminate the risk of pinch welts and bruising, a common injury when using plastic-bodied manikins.
- The protective overalls and boots are not just accessories; they are integral to the longevity of the manikins. They greatly extend the life of the manikins and are easily replaced if damaged, ensuring your training investment lasts.
- Maintenance is a breeze. A separate hood, made of the same fire-resistant materials as the overall, completely covers the head, making fitting replacement coveralls considerably easier and allowing you to control your training equipment.

Product Details
- The main carcass is constructed of the same flame-retardant Polyester (conforms to BS EN ISO 15025:2002) used in Police ballistic/stab vests.
- The main carcass is reinforced with 38mm meta-aramid webbing. Standard Polypropylene webbing will become brittle and melt at the high temperatures this manikin is designed to withstand.
- The protective overalls and hood are constructed using a meta-aramid/para-aramid blend, which offers good protection against high temperatures. It is permanently non-flammable and is most commonly used in protective clothing to protect against heat and flames. The overalls are reinforced using meta-aramid webbing to improve the abrasion resistance and strength.
- Unlike standard manikin overalls, the Fire House overalls are fitted using ties made from the same fire-resistant materials, as the standard Velcro fastenings melt at these high temperatures.
- The ends of the overall arms, identified as a high-wear area, are reinforced with 5mm leather to provide extra protection.
