JTC Twin Ram – 3 in 1 Battering Ram, Wedge Ram, or Combo

The JTC Twin-Ram is specifically designed to defeat heavy fortified doors and concrete block walls in situations where explosives are not authorized.

The TWIN-RAM is designed with a wedge portion on one striking end of the body. This wedge is designed to be used to defeat the weakest portion of any inward opening door, the seam. The wedge should be struck into the seam between the door jam and the lock set and or sets. The operators should approach the target door and set themselves at approx. a 45 degree angle to the door. This will allow the Twin Ram to be swing with out any worries of back space and/or tight hallways.

The operator with their back closest to the hinge side of the door must grab hold of the front handle. This is to prevent any injury such as striking ones forearm against the door jam. The operators should interlock their grips on the handles provided. Meaning that operator 1 grabs hold of the front upright handle and the third upright handle while operator number 2 grabs hold of the second upright handle and the forth upright handle.

Both operators then swing the TWIN-RAM towards their intended target. The operator in the front steers/directs the strike to the target while the second operator merely provides physical force. The greatest feature of this technique is that it general takes half the amount of strikes to defeat a fortified door then using conventional techniques and rams.

Note: Warning any and all manual breaching actions place the end user at risk of serious and permanent injury. All operators of the JTC TWIN-RAM must read and understand the instructions below. The JTC TWIN-RAM when fully assembled is designed to be used by two operators for the purpose of defeating fortified doors and or objects.

The assembled TWIN-RAM should only be used by two operators who have read and understand the instructions provided. All operators must wear eye and hand protection as well as any other protective equipment they deem necessary for the operation. The operator closest to hinge side of the inward opening door should have their hand griping the front handle, and the operator nearest to the jamb side of the door should have their hand gripping the second handle.

FEATURES

• Made from 100% USA Steel by the American Worker for the American Warrior.
• The Twin-Ram breaks down from one 60 pound two-man battering ram, into two separate and fully functional 30 pound rams.
• Perfectly balanced center carry handles sit between the two operating handles on each section.
• The overall length when assembled is 54 inches, and the overall weight is just under 60lbs. The Twin-Ram is designed to effectively provide the operators with two options. The first option is to use the individual rams separately and independent of one another on simultaneous breach problems. The second option is to assemble the two units together, secure them in place with the red T-handled set screw, and utilize the tool as to two-man battering specifically designed to attack fortified objects.
• One end of the Twin-Ram has a standard 5X5″ strike plate, which is found on most basic battering rams. This design and shape is used to effectively and efficiently dismantle concrete and cinder block walls in the two-man configuration by causing mass trauma to the wall material.
• The opposite end has a specifically designed striking wedge that allows the forward (# 1) operator to direct all of the forcible manual-entry energy produced by the two Twin-Ram operators directly into the seam of the door, thus attacking the weakest link of any functioning fortified door.
• The wedge technique for the Twin-Ram Is highly effective in tight hallways as it reduces the danger of the backswing. This is because the wedge is positioned at a 45-degree angle to the seam of the inward opening door, allowing the operators to complete multiple strikes to the target area without interfering with the entry team stacked in the hallway. The direction of the Twin-Ram wedge swing, both in one and two man configurations, Is almost parallel to the hallway walls.
• The Twin-Ram can be effectively carried up or down a ladder or stairwell, or down a fast rope in two units (one man configuration), and then assembled in seconds to strike an Interior safe room door on any level of a target.
• The Twin-Ram can also be taken apart in order to strike Inward opening doors where space is limited (CQB) and/or the doors of corner rooms.
