20 Gauge Door Breaching Round

Iron Powder Impact for Safe, Swift Entry

The 20-Gauge Door Breaching Round is a tactical breaching cartridge designed for trained law enforcement and military teams that require rapid, non-explosive entry. 

These rounds utilize a frangible, powdered-metal projectile (commonly steel or similar metals in a binder) designed to concentrate energy on locks, deadbolts, and hinges while fragmenting on impact, thereby reducing the risk of over-penetration.

A tactical 20-gauge breaching cartridge that uses a frangible powdered-metal projectile to concentrate energy on lockwork and hinge hardware while fragmenting on impact to reduce over-penetration. Intended for trained law-enforcement and military teams and for use only with manufacturer-approved shotguns and stand-off breachers.
The key features and benefits include:
  • Frangible powdered-metal projectile that fragments on impact to defeat locks and hinges.
  • Designed for use with a stand-off breacher and shotgun.
  • Faster and quieter than many mechanical or explosive methods when used by trained teams.
  • Ideal for urban and close-quarters tactical entry.
Use breaching rounds for operations where speed and controlled entry are priorities:
  • Emergency raids and tactical deployments.
  • Hostage rescue and active threat response.
  • Search-and-seizure and narcotics operations.
  • Barricaded subject interventions.
In these situations, time is critical. So using a breaching round can save minutes or even lives compared to older, slower mechanical methods.
