Notes

Number of shots, refers to shots taken at homogeneous material such as glazing. The data has no meaning or validity for door and frame assemblies. During testing, UL takes as many shots at a particular test sample as is determine necessary to test the specimen.

N.I.J (National Institute of Justice) data is intended for the purpose of determining a UL equivalent. Krieger Specialty Products has no official standing with N.I.J. Correlations are not always exact. Same level designation may use more than one caliber. All tests require five shots.
