EoTech Back the Blue HWS Rubber Patch EOT 21118 UPC 672294601204
Product Description
The official EOTECH® Back the Blue HWS Rubber Patch (SKU: EOT-21118 / MPN: 9-AC2065 / UPC: 672294601204) is a duty-grade tactical morale patch purpose-designed to honor and stand in solidarity with active law enforcement officers and first responders across the nation. Combining the unmistakable profile of EOTECH’s combat-proven Holographic Weapon Sight (HWS) with the enduring Thin Blue Line emblem, this patch delivers a bold visual statement of support on plate carriers, duty gear, range bags, and everyday apparel.
Precision-molded from heavy-duty, weather-resistant polyvinyl chloride (PVC) rubber, the EOT-21118 is built to thrive in abrasive field environments where standard embroidered patches fray, stain, and hold moisture. The non-porous polymer construction is completely impervious to rain, mud, bloodborne pathogens, sweat, and caustic gun cleaning chemicals. If the patch becomes soiled during tactical training or outdoor operations, it wipes completely clean in seconds with mild soap and water, restoring its crisp contrast and deep colors without fading or bleeding.
The patch features a multi-tiered 3D molded surface that brings the optic housing, optical window, and blue-line stripe to life with crisp dimensional depth. Fitted with a commercial-grade hook-and-loop backing reinforced by perimeter lock-stitching, the patch remains securely anchored through vehicle exits, active foot movement, and thick brush encounters. Engineered in a balanced tactical footprint, it easily stages on uniform armor panels, helmet loop sections, or range pack fields without crowding essential medical supplies or duty identifiers.
*Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:*
Fitment Matrix: Direct mounting to any standard loop-pile (Velcro® loop) field on external duty vests, plate carriers, tactical ball caps, helmet covers, range packs, and rifle bags. Field care note: PVC rubber will not absorb gun oils, bore cleaners, or environmental grime. To clean, remove the patch from the host loop panel, hand-wash with warm water and mild liquid dish soap, rinse thoroughly, and air dry before reattaching.
- Inspect the target loop-pile panel on your tactical vest, duty pack, or cap to ensure it is clean and free of lint or dirt.
- Align the EOTECH Back the Blue patch over the loop panel with the hook side facing down.
- Press firmly into the center of the patch to engage the primary hook-and-loop field.
- Run your fingers firmly along all perimeter stitched edges to ensure complete corner grip and prevent snagging during movement.
- To remove or reposition, grasp the edge of the rubber border and peel cleanly away to prevent tearing the gear's underlying fabric fibers.
