Why SupaScreen
SECURITY
Australian Standard AS5039-2008 & AS5041-2003 – Testing
Amplimesh Supascreen is subjected to a rigorous regime of impact test, jemmy attacks and pull testing under this standard, to ensure that the inherent strength and structural integrity of the manufactured product is maintained.
Australian Standard AS5039-2008 & AS5041-2003 – Grille Shear Test
SecuraMesh Grilles are tested for material hardness under this standard, to ensure the force required to sever the mesh meets or exceeds the requirements of the standard.
Australian Standard AS5039-2008 & AS5041-2003 – Knife Shear Test
Supascreen stainless steel mesh is tested for material hardness and tensile strength by subjecting the mesh to a standardised physical cutting attack, which draws a knife over the mesh numerous times.
FIRE
Australian Standard AS1530.4-2005, Appendix B7 – Fire Attenuation Test
Supascreen stainless steel security products have been tested in general accordance with this standard and when exposed to incident radiant heat Supascreen achives a 41% reduction in the radiant heat flux between the inside and outside of the product.
Australian Standard AS1530.8.1 – 2007 – Bushfire Test
Supascreen stainless steel security products have been tested under this standard and satisfied the requirements for bushfire attack Level (BAL) 40.
CYCLONIC
Australian Standard AS1170.2-2002, Clause 5.3.2 – Cyclonic Missile Impacts
In cyclonic regions windows and doors may need to be protected from flying debris. Supascreen stainless steel security products have been tested to this standard, resisting the 4kg, 100mm x 50mm timber travelling at 15 meters oer second (m/s).
Australian Standard AS1170.2 – 1989 – Cyclonic Missile Impacts
Supascreen stainless steel security products have also been tested to and satisfied the more onerous testing reguime of this standard. The same piece of timber is impacted into the screen at the faster speed of 20m/s followed by 8mm steel balls at 30m/s followed by fatigue testing.
