BLACKHAWK! Dynamic Entry Mini ThunderSledge Breaching Tool DE-MTS

Overview of the BLACKHAWK! Mini ThunderSledge | DE-MTS

Compact breaching power you can carry anywhere

When a door, lock, or barrier stands between you and the objective, you need a breaching tool that hits hard and travels light. The BLACKHAWK! Dynamic Entry Mini ThunderSledge (MPN DE-MTS) is a compact sledgehammer built for forced entry, giving tactical teams and first responders concentrated striking force in a package short enough to swing in tight hallways and stairwells.

The drop-forged carbon steel head is made in the USA and paired with a Sure-Grip handle that stays planted in gloved or wet hands. The handle system is electrically nonconductive and resists up to 100,000 volts AC, adding a margin of safety when you breach near unknown electrical hazards. Built to Dynamic Entry durability standards, the Mini ThunderSledge is a dependable supplement to any breaching kit for law enforcement, tactical units, and security professionals.

Key Features

• Head Material: Drop-forged, heat-treated carbon steel, made in the USA
• Handle System: Solid fiberglass core wrapped in a polypropylene jacket for strength and shock reduction
• Electrically Nonconductive: Sure-Grip handle resists up to 100,000 volts AC
• Sure-Grip Surface: Reduces slippage during operations and resists cuts, glass shards, and most industrial chemicals
• Compact Length: Short profile for swinging in confined spaces
• Built to Standard: Meets Dynamic Entry high-durability requirements for breaching kits

Specifications

Compatibility

The Mini ThunderSledge is suited to breaching wood and metal doors, padlocks, hinges, deadbolts, and light barriers during forced entry. Its shorter length works best in confined areas such as hallways, stairwells, and interior rooms where a full-size sledge is hard to swing. For heavier structural breaching or longer reach, the full-size Dynamic Entry ThunderSledge (DE-TS) is a better match.

Intended Users

Law enforcement officers and tactical entry teams rely on the Mini ThunderSledge for rapid forced entry during warrant service and dynamic operations. Firefighters and rescue personnel use it for forcible entry and to clear obstructions during emergency response. Security professionals, correctional staff, and trained preparedness-minded civilians also keep it in their kits as a compact, high-force striking tool.
