WHATS IN THE BOX : Mercury Rise Self Defence TPE Rubber Steel Ball Ammo .68cal X TUBE 10 BALLS

Only TPE80 Rubber Steel Ball Included.

As you can see in the video, the TPR80 rubber balls are harder than the TPE80 rubber balls. We mentioned the difference in hardness because harder rubber balls can ricochet more strongly when they hit a hard surface. This could lead to accidental injuries for shooters or others.

For safety reasons, we currently only sell TPE80 rubber balls in the USA. These balls are less prone to ricocheting and are much safer than TPR80 rubber balls. However, we do manufacture both TPR80 and TPE80 rubber balls.

Since TPE80 rubber balls can become sticky under certain working temperatures and moisture conditions. To avoid this, we recommend applying a little bit of silicone fluid (with about Kinetic/Kinematic Viscosity of 1000 Centistokes) on TPE80 rubber balls if you plan to shoot them repeatedly in a short amount of time.

Rubber steel balls used for self-defense are typically small, hard projectiles designed to provide a non-lethal means of protecting oneself. These balls are often a combination of rubber and steel, giving them a balance of weight and resilience. They are generally intended to be fired from devices like slingshots, airguns, or specialized launchers.

Here are some characteristics of rubber steel balls for self-defense:

1. Material Composition: The outer layer is  rubber or a rubber-like material, while the core contains steel or a similar dense material. This combination provides the balls with both impact resilience and a level of weight that makes them effective at delivering a painful but non-lethal impact.
2. Non-lethal Force: When fired or thrown, these balls can cause pain, bruising, or temporary disorientation to an attacker, but they are not intended to cause severe injury. They are typically designed to incapacitate or deter an attacker without causing lasting harm.
3. Versatility: They are often used with handheld slingshots or even pneumatic guns, giving users a variety of options for carrying and using them. The projectiles are compact and easy to store, which adds to their appeal for personal protection.
4. Legal Considerations: In many regions, rubber steel balls are legal for self-defense purposes, but they may be restricted in some areas. It’s important to check the local laws regarding their use and possession before carrying or using them.
5. Range and Effectiveness: The effectiveness of rubber steel balls depends on the distance and the velocity with which they are fired. At close range, they can deliver a significant amount of pain or discomfort, while at longer ranges, they may be less effective at stopping an attacker.
6. Alternative to Firearms: Rubber steel balls are often used as an alternative to firearms in situations where individuals want a non-lethal method of defense. They are particularly popular in situations where using deadly force is not desired or justified.

Overall, rubber steel balls offer a balance of portability, ease of use, and effectiveness for self-defense while minimizing the risk of fatal outcomes. However, as with any self-defense tool, understanding proper usage and local legal restrictions is key.
