Law Enforcement & Corrections
Pepper spray – particularly SABRE Red1 – is the safest means of force for both officers and subjects, as opposed to empty-hand control techniques, baton, conducted energy weapons and lateral vascular neck restraint.
SABRE is the only brand with a High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) guarantee, the pepper spray industry’s #1 advantage. Our in-house HPLC lab eliminates the 30% heat failure rate experience with other brands2. HPLC guarantees the maximum strength of SABRE products, every single time.

I wanted to take this opportunity to let you know how impressed I am with your products. I have been in corrections for 26 years. And directly involved in testing, evaluating, and purchasing less lethal options for over 20 years. I have seen many O.C. products come and go. But the Security Equipment Corporation line of SABRE O.C. is here to stay.
Hit Your Target From Any Angle
Static subjects are few and far between. When force escalation triggers the use of pepper spray, subjects will frequently move, duck or attempt to block the spray.
That's why you want Crossfire Technology.

Just wanted to let you know one of our officers a few nights had the opportunity to use our new SABRE Pepper Gel. The can worked perfectly [...]. I weighed the can after the incident and there is still 3.3 ounces left to use. I just wanted to say what a great product it is, and that we will be continue to purchase this product. Nothing compares to using it in the field and it working way past our expectations.
