Clear Lightweight Armor Shield: When Every Second Counts.

Carjackings and automobile burglaries are increasing at an alarming rate. Vehicle owners are becoming more concerned about security. Especially their own personal security when inside their vehicle. Popular steering-wheel lock devices and burglar alarms do help to deter break-ins of some unoccupied vehicles. Unfortunately, they have been so successful that new criminal tactics, such as smash-and-grab theft, are being used to gain unlawful entry - even into occupied vehicles.

Protection For Side and Rear Windows

Now, a high quality automotive glazing product is available that enhances a vehicle's most vulnerable areas for break-in: the side and rear windows. A conventional automotive window can be penetrated in as little as one second. But entry into any vehicle can be made much more difficult with the installation of a new automotive window glazing product from Pinnacle Armor:

Clear Vue®, an optically clear lightweight armor shield for vehicle side and rear windows.

Pinnacle Armor specializes in the physical hardening "Armoring" of facilities, vehicles, vessels and aircraft for ballistic, explosive blast and forced entry threats. Our established reputation in the security industry is due to superior customer service and comprehensive product offering based on our years of experience.

Pinnacle Armor has extended it's line of high technology security products to produce a clear lightweight armor shield for automotive side and rear windows that can be easily installed into any vehicle.

Protection Thru - Time

It takes much longer to break through a Clear Vue® shield than through a conventional window. The Clear Vue® shield provides precious time to the occupants affording them the opportunity to move to safety, or may make it so difficult as to discourage a vandal from breaking into a vacant car. Yet, all the standard operating functions of the original windows are maintained, and the optical clarity is unaffected.

In addition, the Clear Vue® shield from Pinnacle Armor provides the vehicle occupants with protection from flying glass caused by the impact of an airborne object or by repeated strikes against the glass from the bold and often fiercely aggressive carjackers and would- be robbers attempting to gain unlawful forced entry. Clear Vue® simply makes it more difficult to penetrate the window. It will not however, stop bullets or prohibit entry.

Protection With High Quality

Clear Vue® is a durable three-layer shield that is laminated under heat and high pressures to the inboard surface of the vehicle side or rear windows. They are to the same specifications as an OEM replacement window and meet the requirements of the applicable federal motor vehicle standard. The result is a transparent shield that won't be noticed, but will provide enhanced security when needed.

The Clear Vue® lightweight armor shield is comprised of polyvinyl butryl (PVB) sheeting and a Polyethylene Terepthalate (PET) sheet, both of which are then custom laminated to the glass throught heat and pressure for many hours. The (PET) sheet has a polysiloxane hard coat applied to the exterior which provides for superior scratch/abrasion resistance.
