NIJ Ballistic Tests Conducted in the USA
Our ballistic helmets are laboratory tested according to National Institute of Justice (NIJ) standards, ensuring reliability and performance that meet international requirements.
Tested to NIJ IIIA (standard 0106.01), they resist 9x19mm FMJ RN and .44 Magnum ammunition, with no penetration and very low backface deformation (BFD) compared to other competing helmets.
The high-density Kevlar shell provides an excellent balance between ballistic protection and lightness, for comfortable and durable wear.
Fragment protection is validated according to STANAG 2920 up to 1280 m/s, supplemented by resistance to impacts, immersion, and low-speed impacts conforming to EN 397.
Advanced materials based on Kevlar® aramid fibers
We select technical materials renowned for their reliability. Aramid fibers such as Kevlar® are distinguished by their ability to withstand extreme stresses while retaining their properties in the face of high temperatures.
Integrated into the design of our protections, this technology makes it possible to obtain particularly stable structures during an impact. Ballistic tests show that this type of fiber helps maintain the integrity of the helmet at the moment of impact, thus increasing the level of protection and user safety.
Our latest ballistic tests carried out on our helmet shells show one of the lowest rear deformations on the market, despite eight impacts received by the shell, thus demonstrating the robustness and quality of our materials.
Why choose our ballistic helmet over another
At Pangolin Tactical Gear, we go beyond usual standards. In addition to V50 fragmentation tests according to STANAG 2920, our helmets are also tested against live ammunition such as 9×19 mm and .44 Magnum, in compliance with NIJ IIIA requirements.
This approach ensures complete ballistic protection, designed for real-world use conditions, and not just to meet minimum normative requirements. Designed to remain lightweight, robust, and durable, our helmets are already used by professionals and government agencies worldwide.
