SecureBands Tire Safety Bands:for the RV Market

Bulldog SecureBands Tire Safety Bands:
New to the RV market

Proudly made in the USA / competition product is made in the U.K. / china

New RV Run Flat Tire Insert in production: Due to the increased demand in the RV market for a tire band solution , we are now in the process of developing a new low profile run flat tire insert specifically for the large motor home 22.5" application, this will be a far superior solution than what is currently available .This is in addition to the current 22.5" SecureBand

When a tire deflates, air pressure reaches a low point providing insufficient pressure to hold the tire in the correct position on the wheel. The tire bead can move around freely and drop into the wheel well resulting in loss of traction, braking and mobility. Sudden air loss can cause you to lose control of your vehicle resulting in catastrophic consequences. Enter the Bulldog SecureBand wheel safety system!

Bulldog SecureBand is designed to simply fit over the wheel well to prevent the tire bead from moving into the well.

Bulldog SecureBand helps prevent the tire from coming off the wheel during a blowout or puncture.

Bulldog SecureBand assists the driver in maintaining control of the vehicle as a result of a flat or blowout.

Bulldog SecureBand helps maintain braking and mobility after tire deflation allowing driver to travel to a safe stop.

New Products and Services:

NEW Armored Vehicle Design and Engineering Services: for companies wishing to get into the armored vehicle manufacturing business, we now offer a complete design, engineering, and manufacturing Service, based at our manufacturing facilities. We offer a program that allows your company to send its staff to our location for hands-on training in the art of vehicle armoring. We start with a standard vehicle and take you through all the steps necessary to armor it, from cutting and fitting the opaque armor to installing the Bullet Resistant Glass. We also offer solutions for vehicle engineering, brakes, suspension upgrades, frame modifications, and ballistic designing for custom applications. We can also cut steel armor plate and other composites for most vehicles. We also provide you with a complete installation manual on the installation process as part of our armoring contract. Bulldog Direct has partnered with one of the world’s leading vehicle ballistic engineers who has retired from a special U.S. government agency responsible for the transportation of leading dignitaries.
 We can also offer onsite consultation of his services on an hourly basis. Please contact us for more information.


Ballistic Fabrics:
At last, the general public now has a reliable and knowledgeable source to purchase the same ballistic fabrics that the large bullet resistant vest / body armor manufacturers use. All of our ballistic fabrics are proudly made in the USA. Most, if not all fabric mills only sell in very large quantities, making it impossible for most individuals to make small purchases to experiment or make their own bullet resistant products. These ballistic fabrics can be used to make Bullet Resistant Vests / Body Armor, Bomb Blankets and Vehicle Floor Fragmentation Blankets.


Police Vehicle Armor Kits:
We now offer a new line of  Vehicle Armored Kits for police, law enforcement and government agencies. These kits primarily offer protection for the front doors, as for the most part the front doors are used as ballistic shields in a felony stop or shooting situation.

These door kits provide two levels of protection, the first being handgun protection up to .44 magnum [NIJ Level IIIA] and the second being [NIJ Level III]  protection for most assault rifles.

Our kits consist of light weight armor panels for the doors, Kevlar or Dyneema depending on the protection level required and bullet resistant glass for the doors. The armor panels are cut and ready to install in the lower door, with instructions and all of the adhesives necessary. The bullet resistant glass is a flat insert that is clipped in place behind the OEM side door glass making for easy installation and quick movement from vehicle to vehicle.

We also provide several options to enhance the vehicle protection. Curved bullet resistant vehicle glass for the front doors and windshield, armor panels for the rear partition.
