The EVAC Systems Chicago Style Search Operations RIT Bag comes pre-loaded with 200 ft of Tan 9mm RIT Response Rope, which is specifically engineered for rapid intervention team operations. This length provides optimal reach for search and rescue scenarios while maintaining manageable deployment speed. The 9mm diameter offers the ideal balance between strength and flexibility for RIT operations, and the tan color provides high visibility against dark backgrounds in fire scenes and low-light environments.

The EVAC Systems RIT Rope Bag is constructed from 1000 Denier Cordura Nylon with heat resistance up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit, making it highly durable for extreme fire ground conditions. While it's designed to withstand radiant heat and brief exposure to high temperatures, it should not be placed in direct sustained flame contact. The material excels in protecting your rope during search operations in smoky, hot environments and provides water resistance to keep your gear dry during suppression activities.

The EVAC Systems Chicago Style RIT Bag offers two pocket configurations to match your operational needs. The one-pocket style (SKUs ending in W1P200) features a large front pocket ideal for storing webbing, carabiners, or a personal escape rope. The two-pocket style (SKUs ending in W2P200) provides two smaller side pockets perfect for organizing tools like door chocks, flashlights, or marking devices separately. Both configurations maintain the same 11 x 14 x 15 inch dimensions and include the main rope compartment with quick-deployment design.

The two seat belt buckles integrated into the EVAC Systems RIT Bag's shoulder strap serve a critical safety function during rapid intervention scenarios. These quick-release buckles allow firefighters to instantly shed the bag if they become entangled or need to escape quickly through tight spaces. Unlike traditional buckles, seat belt-style closures can be released under load with one hand, even while wearing heavy gloves, making them essential for self-rescue situations during search operations.

The reflective tape on both sides of the EVAC Systems Chicago Style RIT Rope Bag is designed for long-term durability in harsh fire ground conditions. The tape is heat-resistant and securely bonded to the 1000 Denier Cordura material to withstand repeated exposure to temperatures up to 500°F, as well as abrasion from dragging and contact with rough surfaces. This ensures maximum visibility in zero-visibility environments throughout the bag's service life, critical for accountability and safety during search and rescue operations.
