Pouch for Folding Shovel

The M-Tac MOLLE pouch is designed for a sapper's folding shovel. During almost the entire past century and up to the present day, the sapper shovel was one of the most important elements of a soldier's equipment. This is a universal tool that can be used to dig, chop, cut and beat. Currently, sapper shovels are in demand not only in the army, but also in the everyday life, especially among survivalists, hunters, mushroom pickers and outdoor enthusiasts. The ergonomic shape ensures that the product will take up a minimum of space on the loading system. It is fastened using the MOLLE standard, so this product can be incorporated with all loading systems in use today. The large flap is fastened with a chunky plastic clasp, which not only allows quick access, even when wearing winter or tactical gloves, but also prevents accidental dropping of the shovel. Fastening system: MOLLE Material: CORDURA Due to its unique qualities Cordura is widely used in tactical equipment of military, law enforcement and special forces. It is mainly materials with linear density of 1000d and 500d. Linear density - is the ratio of weight of the thread of matter and its length. It is measured in denier. This unit of measurement is mainly used for nylon products. Accordingly, the higher this value, the thicker and heavier the fabric. The physical and technical characteristics of CORDURA 1000D fabric are very high, breaking load is about 3000 N, breaking load is about 150 N. The abrasion resistance is over 50,000 cycles. It is used for clothes, covers, pouches. Be it a tactical backpack, pouches or jacket.Products made of CORDURA materials will undoubtedly pass the test of time and distance. CORDURA is durability, reliability and style. In terms of strength, it is beyond any competition. Camouflage "MULTICAM" was developed by the American company Crye Precision in collaboration with the U.S. Army Soldier Systems Center, commonly known as the U.S. Army Natick Labs. Creating the MULTICAM pattern took over eight years of expeditions, scientific research, data analysis, and practical field tests. It was designed to serve as a universal camouflage solution for the American army. The need for a new camouflage became evident after Operation Desert Storm in Iraq. At the time, the camouflage patterns in use, such as Woodland for forest terrain and Tri-Color Desert for desert operations, failed to provide adequate concealment for soldiers. Each operation still required specialized camouflage, complicating supply logistics and decreasing soldier safety. Even after introducing a new universal digital camouflage (Digital) during operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, the situation did not significantly improve. It became clear that a single universal pattern was necessary, one that would allow a soldier to blend into any terrain and at any distance from an observer. The goal was to create camouflage that worked equally well against various backgrounds, including vegetation, desert, rocky terrain, urban buildings, and ruins, under different lighting conditions and in any climate throughout the year. How does this camouflage work? It seemed almost impossible to achieve such a versatile pattern. However, the designers utilized the limitations of human vision and the structure of our eyes to their advantage. In theory, for camouflage to be effective at long distances, it should consist of large, blurred spots. At closer ranges, especially against backgrounds of foliage and vegetation where the human eye detects small objects more clearly, the pattern should incorporate small, rounded elements of the dominant background. The developers found that the predominant backgrounds across most regions of the globe share similar gradients of green and brown. An important revelation was that black, which is commonly used in camouflage patterns worldwide, does not actually appear in nature. By integrating their findings and conducting computer simulations that layered over a thousand images, the developers successfully created the MULTICAM pattern. Near Infrared (NIR) technology is utilized by the US Department of Defense to minimize detection by NIR electro-optical sensors. These sensors do not detect infrared radiation. NIR uniforms are made from a special fabric that helps soldiers maintain a temperature similar to that of the surrounding landscape, making them harder to spot. Additionally, NIR technology reduces light reflection, making the uniforms less visible in low-light conditions
