Schmidt BAABS Trigger Rail Deadman System

SKU: P-DMBB

The latest innovation in deadman safety technology from Axxiom is the BAABS (Blasting Accessories and Assist Bracket System). Intended to be the safest deadman on the market, it mechanically prevents inadvertent activation.  The Schmidt BAABS deadman is such a leap forward in safety technology that Axxiom provides them as standard equipment with most new blast pot or valve retrofit purchases.*

All BAABS use the Axxiom G3 trigger deadman configurable as either electric or pneumatic.

All BAABS units are capable of being fitted with the BAABS blast light for improved vision in dim or dusty environments.  (Note:  When the light is used with the Subcompact BAABS, there is not room for the thrust brace.)

*The standard configuration provided with new equipment is the Compact size.  See Product Description tab for all size options.

Description

  • BAABS available size configurations
    • Subcompact.  Shortest version, intended for use in extremely tight spaces, blasting nooks & crannies, etc.
    • Compact.  Designed for general purpose blasting, it is capable of being used in all but the tightest of spaces. This model BAABS is now standard in all new Axxiom Schmidt blast equipment except the 0.9CF Mini Blaster and all BRS units.
    • Short Rail.  Also designed for general purpose blasting, the Short-rail BAABS is the middle-size unit.
    • Long Rail.  Ideal for large, flat wall areas and allows the operator to step back from the surface.
    • 2XL.  The longest BAABS of all!  Virtually eliminates the back-breaking task of bending over to blast tank floors.

The Blasting Accessories & Assist Bracket System – commonly referred to as BAABS – was primarily designed to reduce the physical demands associated with abrasive air blasting. It was originally conceptualized to address these widely accepted limitations by directing most of the blast nozzle thrust onto the chest or other parts of the body capable of absorbing this thrust for longer durations. Less muscle and strength demand results in significant reduction of fatigue. Clenched grips, hand cramps, and arm fatigue are drastically reduced due to the more ergonomic benefits, which enable more comfortable control of the blast nozzle.  Following are some of the features that make this system unique:

  • Redundant spring-loaded safety latch assures base stays wrapped around blast hose
  • G3 trigger guard provides additional protection
  • Modular design
  • Unrivaled comfort – ergonomic grip allows for increased control
  • Thrust pad and side grip can be quickly configured for left- or right-handed operation
  • Handles and grips can be adjusted to accommodate varying arm lengths
  • Can be easily retrofitted over most blast hoses
