A true breakthrough in aerosol performance. It doesn’t matter if you hold the First Defense 360º dispenser upright, upside down, or sideways. As long as you can point the nozzle at the target and press the trigger, you can deliver an effective, controlled 10-12 ft. stream with minimal chance of cross contamination or disturbance by wind or rain compared to alternate delivery systems. No additional training or education is required.

All the attributes of the original First Defense…but with twice the heat. FIRST DEFENSE® OC Formulation was created to provide the safest OC aerosol on the market. Today the original formulation is the most widely used pepper spray in law enforcement and corrections throughout the world. Now, with First Defense X2, you get all the reliability and proven effectiveness, in an even hotter formulation. Its 0.4% capsaicin concentration—double the active capsaicin level of the original First Defense—provides a familiar non-lethal deterrent you can count on in the toughest situations. Without concerns about decontamination, health, or environmental risks.

First Defense® X2: Now more effective. Still water soluble. Like the original First Defense® Oleoresin Capsicum, First Defense X2 is processed further than oil-based OC to remove natural oils, waxes and fats; yielding a formulation that is clear of color and consistent in its potency. The OC manufactured for First Defense® X2 is water-soluble, all-food grade and thoroughly tested for effectiveness and safety. At 500,000 SHU, it’s also the hottest, water-soluble OC available. Based on their extensive research, Defense Technology has determined that the hotter 0.4% capsaicinoid level is optimum for consistent effectiveness. But because First Defense’s water-soluble OC formula decontaminates more easily then oil-based solutions, it not so excessive that decontamination time or simplicity is compromised.

Non-flammable, environmentally friendly, simple to clean. First Defense OC Aerosols use only food-grade formulations and safe nitrogen propellant, making them completely non-flammable and biologically sound. They contain no HCFCs or CFCs. And because First Defense is water-soluble, it allows relatively easy clean-up and decontamination of skin and surfaces, using soap and water or just a damp cloth. Clothing and fabrics can be cleaned by machine washing or dry cleaning. Airborne OC can be cleared from buildings with simple ventilation.

COOL IT! For faster relief. Convenient COOL IT! aerosols and towelettes contain a quick-acting herbal ingredient designed to draw the oily resin of OC out of the skin.

Tested and proven—in the streets, in the lab, and in the courtroom. Defense Technology has never lost or settled a legal claim against them. Ever.

CARRIER (Ingredients): Distilled Water, Specifically Denatured, Alcohol (Ethanol), Propylene Glycol, and Water-Miscible OC.

First Defense X2 360° is available in MK- 3, and MK-4, aerosol projectors.

SAFE AND EASY TO USE: A protective, spring-loaded black plastic safety cover is attached to the upper portion of the outer casing above the actuator. The Flip Top actuator assists in directional holding, aiming, and discharging of the device during all light conditions. The cover prevents accidental discharge of the unit and conveniently moves out of the way with the approach of the thumb or finger to permit easy access to the actuator. No separate lifting motion is required to activate the device.

INDIVIDUALLY SERIALIZED: Wear and water-resistant labels affixed to all units permit easy
identification. Lot numbers for formulation are present for quality assurance tracking.
