Bullet Resistant Acrylic sheet offers a lightweight, crystal clear, non-laminated alternative for your protective barrier designs. It’s half the weight of bullet resistant glass of the same UL class rating, and meets UL 752, Level I, II, and III requirements for use in bullet-resistant applications involving small firearms.  All levels meet Building Class CC, Federal Specification L.P. 391D and ASTM D 4802.

Despite all of the improvements in security technology, bullet resistant barriers have been proven to be the only measure that deters crime before it happens. This is especially important considering there is approximately one convenience store robbery for every two convenience stores in the U.S. and that bank robberies have increased by 136 times in the past 50 years.

Level I is one of our thinnest and lightest bullet resistant products.  It protects against handguns of medium power, such as 9mm and Super 38 Automatic – any handgun with a muzzle energy of 380 to 460 foot-pounds.  It is offered with and without a super abrasion resistance coating.

 

Benefits:

  • Available with an abrasion resistant coating
  • Offers 40x more effective abrasion resistance of uncoated acrylic
  • Half the weight of bullet resistant glass
