Dyneema / Spectra Shield© is the strongest, lightest, composite ballistic
material made today! Spectra Shield isn't a woven fabric like most ballistic
materials i.e. [ Kevlar] used today! But instead, a thin,flexible ballistic
composite made from two layers of unidirectional fibers held in place by
flexible resins. These fibers are arranged so they cross each other at 0
and 90 degree angles, then, both fiber and resin layers are sealed between
two thin sheets of polyethylene film similar to sarran wrap. Spectra Shield
is ten times stronger than steel.
Dyneema / Spectra Shield composite armor panels are readily cut and fabricated
using commonly available tools [saber saw with a knife blade will easily
cut the panels.] The panels can then be glued in place, or installed with
screws, nuts and bolts, etc. Butt joints are ballistically weak, reinforce
them with a min. 4" wide strip of same level of material to cover any gaps
in the panels.
Our Dyneema / Spectra Shield panels panels were tested behind .040 aluminum
panels, go to next higher level of protection for stand alone applications.
