PROTECH® Tactical introduced its the All Purpose Vest has FirstSpear® Tubes™ closures. With the integration of FirstSpear’s polymer closure system, the All Purpose Vest provides full-coverage ballistic protection with an additional closure option for comfort and ease. The three carriers featuring FirstSpear Tubes – SHIFT 360™, Fast Attack Vest and All Purpose Vest – will be available with the 6/12™ load-bearing platform and will be on display at The Safariland Group booth #12762.
“One of the most popular features of our platforms is our ‘a la carte’ set-up,” said Director of Tactical Armor Brian Santimauro. “Our line of products has a broader collection of systems than anyone else in the industry. We incorporate the latest technologies and products into one system for everything from ultimate maneuverability to high-risk, full coverage operations. Our comprehensive line of ballistic packages are some of the most sought-after in the industry because of our innovation, attention to details and technology. Working with FirstSpear reinforces our commitment to engineering the best fit, form and function.”
FirstSpear Tubes closure system modernizes the tactical carriers, enhancing the ease of donning and doffing with a quick up or down single hand function. The simple motion for attaching or detaching the system capitalizes on the user’s muscle memory, ideal for stressful or high-speed scenarios. This lightweight closure system ensures the cummerbund is always positioned in the same location, which is vital for proper ballistic coverage, and mitigates the risk of misalignment and incorrect attachment.
FirstSpear 6/12 expands the breadth of load-bearing platform options for the SHIFT 360, Fast Attack Vest and All Purpose Vest. With the laser cut slits of the 6/12 technology, operators have an additional option for a lightweight platform with the ability to integrate all pouches offered in the PROTECH Tactical line.
The Shift 360, Fast Attack Vest, and All Purpose Vest provide top-of-the-line configurations for active shooter, first responder and tactical situational needs. All three platforms are ideal for high-speed maneuverability and have been redesigned with lower profile silhouettes, increased adjustment options, and a host of ballistic accessories for numerous upgrade choices. By expanding the breadth of load-bearing and closure system offerings, PROTECH Tactical is continuing to meet the needs of today’s law enforcement teams.
