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 compact aluminum gap-holding tool that helps one firefighter create, hold, and build on progress during forcible entry.
During conventional door forcing, one firefighter often holds the gap with an axe or tool while another works the halligan. The 8 WEDGE® helps hold that gain, allowing a firefighter to reset, reposition, and continue the force without losing progress.
Machined from durable 6061 aluminum and built for repeated fireground use, the 8 WEDGE® supports inward and outward swinging door operations and fits into a larger forcible entry tool setup.
Same tool. Same performance. Upgraded appearance.
The 8 WEDGE® Laser Edition is the same proven forcible entry tool, finished with anodized color and precision laser engraving for a clean, high-contrast mark that stands out.
The laser etches directly into the anodized surface, creating a crisp white design that won’t peel, fade, or wear off like printed markings.
Built for firefighters who want clear identification, department consistency, or a custom look—without changing the performance of the tool.
