What Are The Functional Characteristics Of Riot Shields?

May 08, 2024

The riot shield adopts a structure with locally convex surfaces, raised platforms, and reinforced edges, which improves its resistance to impact. The shield body is made of high-strength and high-quality imported PC material, which has been processed and injected into a mold, and has excellent performance. So, do you know the functional characteristics of riot shields?

The functional characteristics of riot shields:
1. Impact strength: After hitting at a linear speed of 21m/s, the shield body does not show any breakage or cracks
2. Anti impact energy: After hitting with 500J energy, the shield body did not break or crack
3. Puncture resistance: 147 joules kinetic energy puncture, shield force point aperture<5mm
4. Impact strength: 147 Joule kinetic energy impact, shield body does not penetrate holes
5. Transmittance: > 85%
6. Protection area: 0.49 square meters (930mm x 530mm)
7. Arm strap connection strength: > 500N
8. Thickness: > 4mm

Riot shields refer to defensive equipment similar to medieval shields used by armed police and riot police, mostly made of polycarbonate material.
