Van Trepan™ is a lightweight plastic charge designed with precision to utilise either 11g or 22g of 10g/m (50 grain/ft) detonating cord. It provides a reliable means of cutting a circular hole in a vehicle's side, door, or roof, enabling inspection of the contents and insertion of a disruption charge, such as Bottler™, if necessary.

The Van Trepan™ is not just a tool for gaining entry to a sealed vehicle; it's a versatile solution that can also create access holes for equipment and weapons.

The Van Trepan™ can be held in position using a prop stick, a tool that provides stability and control during the operation; Breacher's Tape™, a high-performance adhesive tape that ensures the Van Trepan™ stays in place, HydroTape™, for sticking charges to dirty and damp/wet surfaces or a combination of these, depending on the specific requirements of your operation.
