 BALLISTIC
PLATES (SSAB of Sweden)
SSAB is one of the biggest steel producers in
the world, developing, producing and selling high
grade steel. Every lot of ballistic steel produced
is 100% tested at Beschussamt Mellrichstadt in
Germany, receiving a quality certificate.
SSAB produces the best high resistance steel in
the world for a wide range of applications. SSAB
is committed to their customers by providing all
necessary support to find the best possible solution
for their customer’s requirements.
Estimated total weight of shell 1,690kg
Estimated total weight of glass B6 for 500kg
Windshield and Driver + Passenger windows
designed with Egress system
Estimated total weight of ballistic steel B6 900kg
Estimated weight of woven Aramida mats for 150kg
ballistic floor protection for driver and passenger*
Miscellaneous weight (connectors, mirrors, bolts,
etc…) 140kg
*The woven aramida mats as mentioned above are
capable of providing protection from an I.E.D.
equivalent to 2.5kg of TNT (Anti-Vehicle Mine).
These mats are placed in the driver and passenger
foot wells to provide complete protection to the
driver and passenger.
EGRESS SYSTEM
An Egress system was designed as a useful and
effective tool for quickly and easily escaping
from the vehicle in the case of an emergency.
The Egress system has been installed for both
the passenger and driver side windows with the
following dimensions:
816mm x 671mm / 27.5” x 33.3”
The Egress System was tested with an individual
who stands 6’2” tall and weighing 220lbs. Please
review the pictures below and you will be able
to see how easy it is for an individual to escape
from the vehicle.
We have the distinct advantage of manufacturing
our own ballistic
glass, which allows us to maintain
complete quality control over all aspects of
production.
The outer shell connection method allows for
quick and easy installation as well as removal
of the “Shell”. In the event that you do not
require, to have armor on all of your vehicles
all of the time a possible solution would be
to install the Connectors on the entire fleet,
which would then allow for easy installation
of a “cage” with a minimal amount of time and
effort on only the vehicles that immediately
require armor. With a minimal amount of training,
the estimated time for installing and or removing
the entire “Shell” is less than 90 minutes.
The only required items would be either a 5
Ton Fork Lift or Crane and a basic set of mechanics
tools.
In an attempt to maintain the utmost drivability
of the vehicle we designed a system that would
limit the amount of vibration as well as to
counter any pendulum effect that the vehicle
may encounter due to the added weight. Our engineers
placed 4 heavy-duty shock absorbers installed
between the Shell and the connectors, which
have the effect of keeping the vibration and
any pendulum effect to a minimum.
| Spares can be warehoused
by us based on your requirements.
Additional back
up spares can be supplied along with the
“ Armored Shell ”.
|
|
| For quick and easy maintenance of specific
items such as fluids, oil, etc… we designed
a system to allow for easy access to certain
parts of the vehicle, without having to
remove the “Cage”. |
| In our new design, we utilized a design
that resembles the interior lock of a Cash
In Transit Vehicle, which offers more security. |
The
structural warranty will be valid for 2
(two) years from date of delivery.
All
glass will be covered by a 2 (two) year
warranty against lamination defects.
All
warranties are valid for normal use and
operation only.
Please note the following:
Armored glass has the same physical characteristics
of regular glass, in other words a rock
could potentially crack but not break
through the windshield.
The selected “Armoring Level” means the
armoring will resist up to the caliber
as defined by NIJ Standards, any other
object/projectile that does not fit within
this category will not be guaranteed.
The warranty over the armoring is under
normal use only, over a regular truck,
and should not be used for offensive military
operations.
