AR1300 ARMA – STRIKE
Foam protection
for Body Armor Plates
ARMA – Strike is a resilient expanded polyethylene (EPE) energy absorbing foam for applications requiring impact absorption, vibration dampening, insulation, buoyancy and chemical resistance. ARMA-STRIKE is ideally suited for front, back and side body armor applications.
At 4.2lb density, ARMA-STRIKE is lighter and more durable than many other body armor foams available while delivering excellent impact protection.
- Available with or without (PSA) pressure
Sensitive Adhesive - High surface energy bonds very well with PSA
- Available sheet or diecut shapes
- Skived to any thickness from .050″ to 5.00″
- Meets Mil Spec CID-A-A-59136. No off gassing
to comply with less than 10% LEL.
Other Foams Available:
(All available with or without PSA and in sheet, roll or diecut form)
PORON® – Cellular urethane foam, various thicknesses, density/hardness and grades including Poron XRD.
VOLARA® – Cross linked polyethylene foam in various thicknesses (2lb – 4lb and 6lb densities) in white or black color
BROCK® – 5.1lb density EPP foam available in various thicknesses.
Description
is a resilient expanded polyethylene (EPE) energy absorbing material for applications requiring impact absorption, vibration dampening, insulation, buoyancy and chemical resistance. Our technology ius ideally suited for front and back body armor applications.
At 4.2lb Density, is lighter and more durable than many other body armor foams in the marketplace while delivering excellent impact protection.
is available with (or without) our pre-applied Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (PSA). The PSA feature allows increased productivity with exacting control and cost.
For additional speed enhancements, can be cut to exact dimensions and delivered to fit your design criteria
MILITARY – Meets MIL Spec CID-A-A-59136. No off-gassing to comply with less than 10% LEL.
