Recommended Exothermic Breaching Technical Tools |
Broco® Military and Tactical: PC/MTMOD1
The Broco® MINI-TAC was developed at the request of the U. S. Army. It is also used by the F.B.I. Hostage Rescue Team and other special units including the London Fire Brigade and Australian Navy. It is the smallest, most portable exothermic torch kit on the market today. The MINI-TAC is used in situations when the operator must make a small number of strategic cuts to enable him to complete his objective.
US C-SOG Official Breaching System |
Broco® Military and Tactical: PC/TACMOD1
The PC/TACMOD1 is the basis for the U.S. Marine Corps' Assault Breachers' Torch Kit and also is in use with Army Special Forces, the F.B.I., and other federal and local special response teams. It was created to meet the specialized requirements of the military's tactical cutting operations. This ultra-lightweight system is engineered to provide the greatest cutting capability in a man-carried torch system. Backpacked in the operational mode, the PC/TACMOD1 is just half the weight of industrial cutting sets, yet provides the capability of cutting 8 linear feet of 1" thick steel in less than 10 minutes. |
