spectra shield small quantity purchase help

Post by Precision »

I am building something (prototype) bullet resistant related and wanted to do a mix of honey well spectra shield and kevlar. I already own the ballistic level kevlar, but cannot find the spectra shield in less then whole roll quantities.

Anyone know of a source for this stuff in 2-4(ish) yard quantities?

I have. They have something like a 100-500 yd minimum. I am looking for like 3 yds.

Not to mention it might or might not be the real thing.

Why not contact Honeywell for samples of their product. I would think they would want to encourage development of products which rely on their company.
If time, chance and random process can produce a platypus why not an ammo tree?
