Continually looking for new ways to keep law enforcement professionals at the cutting edge of safety and performance, 5.11 Tactical Series® just introduced its new ZB-7 Trauma Pad--powered by Zoombang™.
The unique ZB-7 Trauma Pad contains Zoombang*, an advanced visco-elastic polymer that instantly reacts to outside forces. This remarkable phase-change compound is used by professional athletes in the NFL, NBA, NHL and NASCAR. Knowing the applications of ZB-7 are highly useful to our industry, 5.11 Tactical has partnered with Zoombang to bring its extraordinary technology to the law enforcement and military markets. 5.11 Tactical is the exclusive source for ZB-7, powered by Zoombang. When used in conjunction with body armor, the Trauma Pad significantly reduces backface deformation and decreases overall energy transmission to the body.
The polymer in 5.11's ZB-7 Trauma Pad responds immediately in direct proportion to the force applied, offers support and cushioning at rest, is lightweight, flexes with the body and doesn't melt, freeze or deteriorate with temperature variations. The ZB-7 Trauma Pad itself offers no stand-alone ballistic protection and must always be worn with Level 2 or 3A body armor. Made in the U.S.A., the Trauma Pad is priced from $49.99 with or without adhesive backing.
When used in conjuction with body armor, 5.11 Tactical's new ZB-7 Trauma Pad significantly reduces backface deformation and decreases overall energy transmission to the body.
Available only through 5.11 Tactical, the Trauma Pad Carrier Shirt is patterned after 5.11's comfortable Loose Fit Undergear™ crew and includes front and rear mesh carriers. The lightweight, 100% polyester shirt is built from 5.11's moisture-wicking, antimicrobial and quick-drying fabric. Saddle-shoulder construction offers greater freedom of movement and an underarm mesh panel helps moisture escape and evaporate. Flat-lock seams reduce friction to help prevent chafing. The Trauma Pad Carrier Shirt is available in sizes S to 3XL in white or black with short sleeves. Pricing begins at $39.99.
