Strongwell Corporation HS Armor Panels

Strongwell’s HS fiberglass armor panels, co-developed by Hardwire LLC, are designed for ballistics resistance. The panels are assembled using specially constructed glass reinforcements in a proprietary resin matrix. The panel components are then cured in a controlled cycle. When struck by a bullet or other projectile, the panels delaminate in a way that absorbs the energy and stops the projectile. Tens of thousands of these panels have been purchased by the U.S. Military to help protect our troops in Iraq. The HS Armor panels have been independently tested to UL752 Levels 1 through 3 and NIJ (National Institute of Justice) Levels 1, 2A, 2 and 3A. The 0.156′ panel meets NIJ level 1 criteria; the 0.25′ meets UL Level 1 criteria; the 0.3125′ panel meets NIJ Level 2A criteria; the 0.40′ panel meets UL Level 2 and NIJ Level 2 criteria; and the 0.50′ panel meets UL Level 3 and NIJ Level 3A criteria.
