  1. Equipment selection shall allow use of chain as a vehicle purchase point along with application of Res-Q-Jack roof resting techniques as described in US PATENT #6,772,984.  Unauthorized application of techniques, teaching of techniques, illustration of techniques, or sale of equipment for techniques will be restricted to fire departments, manufacturers, dealers, distributors or any others having permission or license granted by Res-Q-Jack, Inc.

    Res-Q-Jack perforated extension tubing is galvanized in accordance with ASTM A-653 des. G-90.  Corner weld is zinc coated after scarfing operation.  Tubing is top-coated with a clear organic polymer.

    Tubing is roll formed from 12 gauge (.105 U.S.S. gauge or 2.66 mm) hot rolled steel complying with ASTM A-653 Grade 50.  Average minimum yield strength after cold forming is 60,000 psi (413,685 kN/m2).  Tubing corners are welded by high-frequency resistance welding and externally scarfed to agree with corner radii.

  3. Sidewind jack shall have an internal positive stop collar to prevent over-extension.  WLL of jack shall allow for a minimum 3 to 1 safety factor.

  4. Extension tubing sections shall freely separate to allow for user modification to fit multiple applications unless otherwise specified.
     
  5. Tablock pins shall have a minimum tensile strength of 120,000 psi with a head marking.  Alternately, connecting pins may be heat treated to a grade 8 spec. and coated olive drab green to distinguish from standard grade 2 type pins which are typically coated grey zinc w/ no markings.

  6. Stand bases shall be equipped with two cambuckle straps connected to base with a bolt plate fitting at base pivot bolt to allow for rapid initial stabilization unless otherwise specified.
