24" Lifebuoy Y stand - Galvanised Pole with Stainless Steel Y Bracket to fit a 24" Lifebuoy - Lifebuoy Holder

Stainless steel Y bracket is attached to a galvanised pole designed to hold a 24-inch lifebuoy. 

The Lifebuoy 'Y' Stand is a sturdy and reliable structure designed to securely hold a lifebuoy in various outdoor settings. It consists of a sub-surface, or hard-surface galvanised post and a stainless steel 'Y' bracket — ensuring durability and resistance to harsh weather conditions. The stainless steel 'Y' bracket is securely attached to the top of the galvanized post. Stainless steel is chosen for its superior strength, resistance to corrosion, and aesthetic appeal. It ensures that the lifebuoy remains firmly in place, even during rough weather or emergency situations.

National Waterside Safety Guidlines:

Before installing life-saving equipment like lifebuoys and lifebuoy housings, it's crucial to conduct a thorough risk assessment, following the guidelines recommended by the National Water Safety Forum. At I.C. Brindle, we firmly believe that focusing on preventing water accidents is just as important as having the right rescue gear.

Should the decision be made to install lifebuoys and lifebuoy equipment, adherence to the following guidelines set forth by the National Water Safety (https://www.nationalwatersafety.org.uk/) is essential:

1. Strategic Positioning: Lifebuoys should be strategically positioned in easily accessible locations, clearly visible, and preferably in the distinct colours of red or yellow to enhance visibility.
2. Optimal Height: Ensure that lifebuoys are mounted at a maximum height of 1.7 metres above ground level for easy accessibility.
3. Regular Maintenance: Regular inspections of lifebuoys and their housings are essential. Any signs of wear, damage, or tampering should prompt immediate replacement to guarantee their effectiveness in rescue situations.
4. Considered Placement: The placement and spacing of life-saving equipment should be determined based on identified risks, Areas where people congregate or are prone to accidents should be given priority. Generally, spacing lifebuoys at intervals of 100 metres is recommended under standard conditions, ensuring that potential rescuers are not more than 50 metres away from the equipment at any given time.
