After enduring the impact of a 9-pound, wooden, 2'' x 4'' test missile fired from a cannon at 33 mph, StormGlass, a new hurricane-impact-resistant glass product from Oldcastle Glass, was cracked but still intact due to its resilient interlayer, which prevented penetration. Hurricane-prone regions such as Bermuda (recently belted by Hurricane Fabian with wind forces of 120 mph) would be a good application: StormGlass is made to withstand hurricane wind forces of up to 140 mph. 866/OLDCASTLE.
