see the Maximus™ difference
Built with proprietary technologies, MAXIMUS™ has revolutionized re-loadable non-lethal defense rounds with unparalleled effectiveness and affordability. MAXIMUS™ Defense Rounds burst on impact, engulfing the target in a 4-to-6 foot cloud of painful irritant. Trusted by global security agencies, our proprietary blend of powerful irritants creates rapid inflammation in the capillaries, causing temporary blindness, nausea, coughing, and intense burning sensations, disabling the target for up to an hour.
Our advanced hybrid-shells maximize fragmentation on impact with Crush Factor™ Technology, ensuring reliable powder distribution with every shot. MAXIMUS™ outperforms standard rounds for cutting-edge personal defense.
Superior Irritant Cloud
MAXIMUS™ utilizes unique ingredients to reduce clumping of powder within the projectile, resulting in extended suspension of irritants in the air.
Exceptional Aerodynamics
Textured shells reduce drag and improve aerodynamics, allowing MAXIMUS™ to travel further and straighter than other non-lethal projectiles.
“Other brands all use the same type of non-lethal projectile – basically a paintball with a tough plastic shell. They don’t always break. That’s not something you can rely on when a life is at stake. We knew we had to do better. Every shot has to count.”
– David Clemons, CEO, HERO Defense Systems

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
MAXIMUS™ projectiles work with any device able to fire .68 caliber rounds.
We use a proprietary blend of PAVA and OC. These powerful irritants bind to the receptors that send pain and heat signals to the brain, causing targets to experience intense burning on the skin (as if exposed to scalding heat), temporary blindness, difficulty breathing, and extreme discomfort for up to an hour. There are no long term effects.
Projectiles remain potent up to 2 years from their manufacture date.
For long term storage, keep your MAXIMUS™ in a cool dry place, between 32-100° F.
Hard plastic shells used by other brands tend to bounce off the target without breaking, failing to disperse their contents. Some brands make up for their lack of quality with quantity, expecting you to fire multiple rounds until one works.
We’ve developed the latest advancement in non-lethal projectile design, using specialized materials and molds to ensure every ball bursts reliably on impact. This means you only need one shot to disperse your irritant. That’s protection you can rely on.
