Military Helmet

Military helmets made with Kevlar® meet demanding requirements for protection against a wide range of threats, including bullets, shrapnel and fragmentation. State-of-the-art military helmets made with Kevlar®, like the U.S. Army Advanced Combat Helmet, absorb 20 more kinetic energy than the Personnel Armor System for Ground Troops (PASGT) military helmets they are replacing, and offer protection from submachine gun bullets. Rigorous impact testing shows military helmets made with Kevlar® have superior structural integrity to enhance survivability in ballistic and non-ballistic impact. And because military helmets made with Kevlar® are lighter, they can help improve mobility and reduce fatigue.
