HDT ArctiX® Ahkio Sled
The HDT ArctiX® Ahkio Sled is a trusted load carrier for dismounted arctic warfighter operations, oil and gas exploration, equipment extraction and snowmobiling in the Arctic and Antarctic. The UV resistant, Ultra High Molecule Weight (UHMW) Polyethylene construction is flexible and durable in the most extreme Arctic environments. The the hinged design on the front and the back of the sled offers maximum flexibility while allowing for field repairable and field replaceable components which are not found on molded sleds.
The ArctiX Ahkio Sled features a wider base, additional lead connections and load locking straps to increase sled stability and warfighter safety while traversing diverse and technical terrain. The cargo capacity of the ArctiX Ahkio Sled allows the warfighter to manage rucksack loads by off-loading any tier two supplies into the sled, reducing shoulder-borne weight and warfighter fatigue.
