Notes
Your 8 WEDGE® holster has been crafted using top quality, American made materials and should provide years of reliable service. You should apply blue Loctite to screw threads upon attachment. Your 8 WEDGE® holster can be cleaned using mild soap and water.
Kydexis a thermoforming material and may be sensitive to long durations of intensive heat. We DO NOT recommend use in high temperature, long duration training evolutions (burn buildlings, flashover simulators, etc).
Should your holster become deformed from normal use (ie. fireground operatons), please contact us. (800-255-7312, or 8wedge@rjmachine.com). You may be able to repair yourself with a heat gun, or we can repair or replace for you.
The 8 WEDGE® is a 7.5 oz machined 6061 aluminum firefighter door wedge designed to hold the gap while one firefighter resets a Halligan and continues the force. Developed by firefighters in 2013, it supports both inward- and outward-swinging forcible-entry operations.
Its distinctive figure-eight cutouts provide a convenient grip point for gloved hands and fit over a Halligan spike, allowing the wedge and bar to be carried together.
Dimensions: 1.5" × 1.5" × 5.6"
Weight: 7.5 oz
Made in the USA.
The 8 WEDGE® Laser Edition combines the original firefighter-developed forcible-entry wedge with a colored anodized finish and laser-etched designs.
Choose your wedge color and design for a distinctive, easy-to-identify tool. Laser etching marks the anodized finish, unlike our Custom Engraved version, which is rotary engraved directly into the aluminum.
The Laser Edition retains the same dimensions, weight, and forcible-entry functionality as the Standard 8 WEDGE.
Anodized Aluminum. Laser Etched. Made in the USA.
