BIRCO has produced vulcanized ballistic rubber panels, blocks, sheets, curtains, and lamella components for military, law enforcement and private ranges for years. We have specialized in producing components with unique custom dimensions, to specification for our customers. The density of a vulcanized compression molded rubber product is UNEQUALED. A vulcanized rubber block will weigh 70 pounds per cubic foot. Vulcanization yields a product with strength with elastomeric properties, meaning it will self-seal around ballistic entrance points. Other production methods such as using a liquid binder with crumb rubber (i.e. "grind and glue") yields a product with less desirable properties not yielding to arsenal so the product erodes and chips away with every shot fired. Most range designs using these products require over 12" thick of binder rubber to encapsulate bullets. At the end of the product's useful life the operator is faced with the cost of disposal of a bullet-impregnated piece of HAZARDOUS waste which can cost as much as $1 PER POUND to dispose of. Our product, if installed with a pass-thru system with barbs (no adhesive or foreign materials) and ballistic steel walls can be COMPLETELY RECYCLED, made into another product all at our resource recovery and manufacturing facility. We have produced components as small as 1" x 3" x 7" up to 2" x 48" x 96" sheets weighing 400 pounds. BIRCO has produced lamella strips over 100" in length and with fiber reinforcement. No project is too small or large. Let us help with your ballistic control project. Typical Product Applications: - Shoothouses/Bullet traps
- Stray bullet wall protection
- Range floors
PANELS – Standard 2" x 2' x 2' $48 ea.
2" x 2' x 3' $72 ea.
2" x 2' x 4' $96 ea. Other sizes available upon request.
Flip-Lok™ Rubber Ballistic Panels BIRCO has designed a ballistic rubber panel with a 1" x1" inset around the perimeter. The panel has a textured surface on both sides to allow the panel to be "flipped" and seat with the panels adjacent to it. This safety feature prevents gapping at the seams where rounds can escape control. This design also minimizes waste, where a section can merely flip over to fit in another area of the ballistic control system. 2" x 2' x 2' "flip lok" rubber panels with overlapping perimeter $48 ea.
SHEETS – Standard 3/8" x 4' x 8' sheets textured one side $119 ea.(60 duro / 1000 psi tensile / 212% ultimate elongation) Other sizes available by request
BLOCKS – Standard 8" x 8" x 16" rubber block $59.00 ea.
