Flame Fighter Assembled SCBA Bracket with NFPA Compliant Strap: The "Grab-and-Go" Solution for Crew Safety
In modern apparatus design, speed and safety are non-negotiable. Firefighters need to don their breathing apparatus while en route to the scene, but the equipment must remain securely locked during transit to prevent catastrophic projectile injuries in the event of a crash. The Flame Fighter Assembled SCBA Bracket (Model 14000) is the turnkey solution to this challenge. Unlike standard kits that require tedious assembly of clips, backplates, and straps, this unit arrives fully pre-assembled and ready for immediate installation in jump seats or cab walls.
This all-in-one system features Flame Fighter's universal bracket design, capable of securing virtually any make or model of SCBA cylinder—from 30-minute high-pressure tanks to larger 60-minute bottles. The integrated heavy-duty nylon strap is engineered to meet NFPA 1901-03 standards for equipment retention, utilizing a quick-release lanyard that can be deployed from between the legs or alongside the seat. This "positive locking" mechanism ensures the air pack stays rigid against the seat back during travel but releases instantly when the firefighter pulls the lanyard upon arrival, streamlining the transition from the truck to the fireground.
Key Benefits:
- Turnkey Installation: Arrives fully assembled with the bracket, backplate, footplate, and safety strap already connected, saving fleet mechanics hours of labor.
- En Route Donning: Designed specifically for seat mounting, allowing crew members to strap into their SCBA safely while the vehicle is in motion.
- Universal Compatibility: The Model 14000 bracket geometry accommodates all major SCBA brands (Scott, MSA, Dräger, etc.) and tank sizes.
- NFPA 1901-03 Compliant: Meets the rigorous 9G dynamic crash test standards required for equipment mounted in the driving or crew compartment.
- Rapid Release System: Features a pull-lanyard release mechanism that is easy to operate with gloved hands, ensuring no delay when exiting the apparatus.
- Rugged Construction: Built with heavy-gauge steel components and durable nylon webbing to withstand the vibration and abuse of daily emergency response.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to commonly asked questions below.
-
Is this pre-assembled bracket fully compliant with NFPA 1901 standards for in-cab mounting?
Yes, this specific Flame Fighter unit is sold as a complete, NFPA 1901 compliant assembly because it pairs the standard "Walk-Away" spring bracket with a certified positive locking strap. The safety standards require that any SCBA mounted in the driving or crew compartment of a fire truck must withstand a 9G impact without releasing the bottle. The included high-strength strap, when properly bolted to the bracket and vehicle structure, satisfies this mandate, ensuring the heavy air pack does not become a dangerous projectile during a collision.
-
What specific bottle sizes and pressures will this "One-Size-Fits-Many" bracket accommodate?
This assembled unit is designed for maximum versatility, featuring adjustable steel spring clips that can be configured to hold standard 30-minute, 45-minute, and 60-minute cylinders from all major manufacturers (Scott, MSA, Dräger, etc.). The inherent flexibility of the spring steel arms allows them to expand to fit varying diameters of both high-pressure (4500 PSI) and low-pressure (2216 PSI) bottles. However, you must verify that the installed clip size matches your specific bottle diameter (e.g., 5.25" to 7.25") to ensure secure retention.
-
Does the included strap system use a mechanical positive lock or just hook-and-loop?
The included strap system utilizes a heavy-duty mechanical release (often a seatbelt-style or cam-buckle mechanism) rather than simple Velcro, which is insufficient for crash-safety compliance. This "positive locking" device ensures that the strap remains engaged under extreme G-forces but can be released instantly by a gloved firefighter when deploying. The quick-release pull tab allows for the same rapid "don and doff" speed as standard brackets while adding the critical layer of safety required by national standards.
-
Can this bracket be mounted horizontally or vertically inside an apparatus compartment?
The bracket is primarily engineered for vertical mounting, as this orientation leverages the full strength of the footplate to support the weight of the cylinder valve assembly. While the spring clips provide excellent grip, mounting the unit horizontally places shear stress on the retention strap and may not provide the same level of stability during vehicle transit. For non-vertical applications, specific "lay-down" brackets with specialized cradles are generally recommended to prevent the bottle from sliding out due to vibration.
-
How does the PVC coating on the bracket arms protect my expensive carbon fiber cylinders?
The steel arms of the bracket are heavily coated in a non-marring, industrial-grade PVC dip. This thick, rubberized layer serves as a vital cushion between the hard metal of the bracket and the delicate epoxy resin of your SCBA cylinder. It prevents deep scratches and abrasion that could compromise the structural integrity of carbon-fiber wrapped bottles, potentially failing them during annual hydrostatic testing. Additionally, the high-friction surface of the coating helps prevent the cylinder from spinning or rattling while the truck is in motion.
