SABREX
SABREX incorporates the latest generation technologies available to explosive cutting charges.
It uses explosive energy to produce a highly stable, precise and efficient linear shape charge cutting jet that will defeat a wide range of target materials.
Description SABREX delivers benchmark reliability and performance, even when bent to fit complex target shapes or used underwater. It is the most highly developed explosive cutting tool on the market and provides the Demolitions Engineer, Breacher and EOD specialist with improved capability.
It is available as a family of six natures specifically selected to match the most commonly occurring target sizes.
SABREX embodies three novel technologies;
• the VECTORJET geometry,
• the DENSJET liner
• and the pressure and water excluding JETJACKET.
These technologies are protected by international patent filings and trademark registrations.
SABREX is manufactured by Chemring Energetics UK Ltd. under an exclusive world wide licence from Jet Physics Ltd.

PerformanceSABREX is designed to sever the thickness of steel as shown in the table below. Each nature is matched to commonly occurring target thickness (target reliably severed);
SABREX has proven performance against a wide range of target materials such as Poly Vinyl Butyral security glass, aluminium and hardwoods.
Underwater Performance All SABREX natures have been designed to have the capability of being used underwater and have been demonstrated to have no reduction in penetration against mild steel (BS EN 10025 S275JR / BS4360 Gr 43A) when fired at its minimum bend radius (Plate plane) down to a depth of 12m in freshwater at 10oC.
SABREX1150 has been demonstrated to sever a 25mm mild steel (BS EN 10025 S275JR / BS4360 Gr 43A) when fired at its minimum bend radius (horizontal plane) at a depth of 25m in freshwater at 10ºC.

Detonator /Booster Holder (DBHD, Optional extra)The Detonator / Booster Holder (DBHD) is designed to assist perpendicular and intimate positioning of the detonator against SABREX in both top-down and end-in initiation modes. It comprises a cylindrical body that can accommodate a booster ring or pellet (if used) secured by an insert that grips the detonator and locates and locks into the body with a self-cleaning, quarter turn, quick-lock thread.
The DBHD offers the following benefits:• Works with all six SABREX natures
in both top-down and end-in initiation modes.
• Securely accommodates electric and non-electric detonators, delays and detonating Cord Boosters (DCB) with diameters between 5.7mm and 8.0mm
• Securely accommodates booster pellets and rings (if used) up to 19mm diameter and 35mm long.
• Two built-in attachment features hard prongs and hinged self-adhesive wings.
• Quick-lock, quarter-turn thread for rapid deployment
• Wings are notched to facilitate bending and attachment around the profile of all SABREX variants

The APBT incorporates a unique and patented design-feature which enhances its cutting capability against traditional non-resilient and incoherent target arrays.
Application The traditional use for the Bangalore Torpedo has been to defeat entanglements made up of barbed or razor wire. This design feature has also demonstrated cutting performance against a 6mm steel target. A single APBT tube can be joined with up to seven additional tubes for tactical deployment to defeat large or extended obstacles up to 8 metres in length.
Description The APBT provides a significant improvement in performance and is easier to carry and use than other products. It has been chosen by and is in service with a number of countries around the world including the UK.

• Supplied with a carry strap for each individual tube
• The quick-turn thread allows for easy assembly of up to 8 tubes for deeper breaching.
• The specially designed aluminium tube combined with the high density DPX1 pellets provides enhanced blast and fragmentation for cutting up to 6mm steel plate and defeating razor wire and other barricades
• Supplied packaged as a set of four tubes in an end-opening wooden box providing an ALARP (As Low As Reasonably Practical) IM Signature.
• Can be initiated using a wide range of detonators.

APBT Tube & Carry Sling
OperationAn APBT tube connects to the detonator housing, nose cone and up to seven other tubes via a quick turn thread. The design of the thread has been optimised to ensure ease of assembly under conditions where the thread is contaminated with sand, soil, or mud, whilst being strong enough to allow the tactical deployment of up to eight connected tubes (without decoupling).
The detonator is fitted via a quick fit initiation gland, that will accommodate a wide range of in-service detonators such as L1A2, L2A2 and L10A1 DCB.

L1A3 Safety Fuze
Safety Fuze is used in demolition work where timed demolitions are desirable or to provide a delay for users retire to a place of safety before the main charge detonates.
