Solar Gard® is pleased to announce its Armorcoat® 8Mil safety and security film has met one of the most
stringent hurricane mitigation tests. These test standards, ASTM 1886/1996 Large Missile Impact Level
“C” or 4.5lb missile, ensure that Solar Gard Armorcoat 8Mil safety and security films offer the best
protection money can buy. Conducted on 3/16” tempered glass, the anchored film withstood the 2x4
impacts and then cycled at pressures equivalent to wind speeds up to 140 mph. These tests give property
owners in hurricane prone areas the peace of mind that only comes with 24x7 window reinforcements
through window film. Solar Gard Armorcoat 8Mil safety and security film is ideal for proactively
safeguarding glass in residential properties up to 30 feet in height.
“Window film is the best overall protection property owners can have and the only protection that
works year after year, round the clock. When a hurricane hits, families and business owners won’t
have to worry about securing shutters or plywood; they will know their property is protected with
Solar Gard Armorcoat.” explains Lyman McNutt of Solar X of Sarasota, Florida, a window film
dealer with 35 years experience in the business. “Many customers want verification of how
window film will work to protect their homes and families, and Solar Gard delivers this through the
large missile impact certification.”
