Solar Gard Armorcoat 4 MIL film Safety and Solar Window Film
— Baseline Safety Glazing for Federal Buildings
Solar Gard® Armorcoat 4 MIL Clear is the entry-level safety film in the Armorcoat product line, engineered to upgrade non-safety-rated glass to meet federal safety glazing requirements. When applied to standard annealed glass, Armorcoat 4 MIL holds shattered fragments in place, preventing dangerous glass fallout during accidental impacts, severe weather, seismic events, or minor blast overpressure.
