Electric Breech ACME Drop Safe
This Electric Breech Drop-Safe unit is a rugged, electrically actuated percussion breech engineered for EOD and disrupter operations that require maximum safety and reliability. Built for ACME-threaded disrupter systems, it delivers consistent firing performance while incorporating a positive drop-safe mechanism to prevent accidental discharge during transport or handling.
Key Features
-
Drop-Safe Safety Mechanism
Features a positive-action selector knob that mechanically blocks the firing pin when set to Safe. Even if the disrupter is dropped or impacted, the breech cannot fire unless intentionally set to Fire. -
Electric / Percussion Firing
Operates using a 300 V / 5 J electrical initiator (sold separately), providing fast, clean, reliable ignition without the need for shock-tube or Nonel systems. -
Full Round Compatibility
Supports the same ammunition used in standard PAN-style percussion breeches—no special or modified rounds required. -
Intuitive “Safe / Fire” Selector
Tactile detents allow the operator to feel and confirm the breech state, ideal for low-visibility or high-stress situations. -
ACME Thread Interface
Designed for disrupters that use ACME-threaded breeches, including common tactical, forensic, and robot-mounted systems. Installs easily as an upgrade or replacement.
Why This Breech Stands Out
EOD operations require equipment that performs flawlessly under pressure. This breech provides the firing consistency of electric actuation with the added assurance of a true drop-safe mechanical lockout. It eliminates accidental-discharge risks while maintaining full compatibility with existing disrupter rounds and ACME-threaded platforms.
Technical Notes
-
Requires a compatible 300 V / 5 J electrical initiator.
-
For ACME-threaded disrupter systems only.
-
Ensure the selector is fully detented in the desired position before deployment.
