MEET HALDAN C.O.R.E.™
Your officer is
already there.
Give them options.
The vehicle has changed.
The need to act hasn’t.
Laminated side glass presents a different challenge from tempered glass. A window punch alone may not provide an opening. And when a small fire starts, the officer on scene needs options while fire and rescue respond.
HALDAN brings a carbide striker, cracking slot, laminated-glass saw, and initial fire suppression together in one purpose-built tool. A seatbelt cutter is incorporated into the tool and is still being completed.
