Quick Overview

These guards provide critical blunt force impact protection for an operator's forearms and elbows during riot control, cell extractions, or tactical training. The rigid outer shell deflects and distributes the force of strikes and projectiles, enabling personnel to use their arms as a primary defensive shield without sustaining debilitating injury.

Field Application Steps

  1. Position the guard with the elbow cup seated directly over the point of the elbow.
  2. Secure the straps sequentially from the wrist upwards to the bicep.
  3. Adjust all three straps for a non-slip fit that prevents rotation around the arm.
  4. Perform a full range-of-motion check to ensure guards do not critically impede movement.
  5. Visually inspect the hard shell for cracks and straps for integrity before every deployment.
