Proven Performance for the
Entire Building Envelope

Blast mitigation systems are another milestone in YKK AP’s history of innovation. As we began developing these products, we turned to our family of YKK AP ProTek™ systems because many of them already met the prescriptive standards of the UFC.


YKK AP conducted voluntary open air/arena blast tests in accordance with ASTM F-1642 at an independent test laboratory at a peak pressure and impulse level compliant with the UFC and the majority of the GSA requirements.
These open air tests enable YKK AP to validate the enhanced performance levels of several of our YKK AP ProTek™ Systems to help lower project costs while providing the same level of protection. Testing applications with an interior structural silicone seal (wet glazed) and with gaskets on both the interior and exterior (dry glazed) clearly demonstrated the ability of both approaches to help protect building occupants. A 26’-0” tall curtain wall mockup was also tested to determine the effect of a blast on the intermediate anchors and vertical splices.


Through all of the testing, the YKK AP ProTek systems consistently met or exceeded government requirements by delivering a minimum 3b level of performance.
