▾Who Carries It

Ambulance and fire-based EMS crews — A red, waterproof pack with Velcro fields for name band, grade or blood-group patch, and on the 33 L, retroreflective strips and a reinforced carry handle.

Helicopter and air rescue medics — Both models have a specific heli-hoisting attachment point; the 33 L adds lashing rings for vehicles or aircraft and the XL an identified hoisting handle.

Rescue teams running radios and IV lines — Two Velcro-flapped outlets pass a radio antenna, hydration tube or infusion tube, and MOLLE on the front and side pockets takes add-on pouches.

Medics who need more volume — The UPPERCUT XL adds 9 L and 3.9 in (10 cm) of height on the same footprint for 0.4 lb (0.2 kg) more empty weight, and ships with a rain cover.

The heli-hoisting attachment point, hoisting handle and lashing rings are rescue hardware on a bag, not certified life-safety equipment. Raise, lower or secure the pack only within your team's rigging protocols and rated-hardware standards.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is the difference between the UPPERCUT and the UPPERCUT XL?

Both share a 13.8 × 8.7 in (35 × 22 cm) footprint and 1680D polyamide construction. The XL is 21.7 in (55 cm) tall versus 17.7 in (45 cm), holds 42 L versus 33 L and weighs 5.7 lb (2.6 kg) versus 5.3 lb (2.4 kg). The XL has 4 interior mesh pockets, an identified hoisting handle, a removable back plate and a supplied orange/black rain cover.

Does the UPPERCUT come with medical supplies?

No. Both models ship empty. What ships is the bag with its removable cockade badge; the XL also includes a reversible orange/black rain cover and a removable back reinforcement plate. The interior layout differs by model: pockets and a retention strap on the 33 L, four mesh pockets on the XL.

Can I run a radio antenna, hydration tube or IV line out of the bag?

Yes. Both models have two outlets with Velcro flaps for a hydration bladder or water bag, a radio antenna or an infusion tube, plus a hydration-bladder provision inside. The flaps close the outlets when nothing is routed through them.

How do crews identify the bag and its carrier?

Velcro fasteners on the outside take a name band, grade or blood-group patch, and a removable cockade badge is supplied. The 33 L also has a label holder and ORAFOL microprism retroreflective strips for visibility at night and in traffic.

Can the UPPERCUT be hoisted by helicopter?

Both models have a specific heli-hoisting attachment point, and the XL adds an integrated, identified hoisting handle. This is rescue hardware on a bag, not certified life-safety equipment, so raise or lower the pack only within your team's rigging protocols and rated-hardware standards.
