Ultimate Linings Key Benefits
Formulated for the military and security industry, PAXCON coatings deliver:
Blast & Spall Protection
High impact performance that absorbs and dissipates energy from blasts and projectiles (spall protection) and protects against resulting injury and damage from fragmentation.
Corrosion & Abrasion Resistance
Resistance to corrosion and abrasion, resulting in superior durability and extended service life of military assets.
Flexible, Seamless Application
Excellent bonding characteristics on various surfaces and structural materials, including wood, steel, concrete, and cinder block.
Customizable Solutions
Solutions that ensure optimum performance across a wide range of equipment and harsh environments.
Fast Cure Times
Fast, spray-on application and rapid cure times, which synch with time-sensitive military operations and maintenance schedules and reduce costly downtime.
Lightweight Protection
Light-in-weight protection that won't hinder performance of personnel or equipment.
Application Types in the Defense Industry
Our spray-on polyurea coatings are proven reliable for a wide range of military and security applications:
Body Armor & Spall Linings
Applied to materials like Dyneema® and ceramic panels, our defense-grade hybrid formulation (PX-2100) significantly enhances the effectiveness of body armor and vehicle spall linings, preventing dangerous fragmentation and spalling that can cause severe injuries.
Blast Mitigation for Structures
Walls and buildings coated with our blast-mitigation pure polyurea (PX-3350) can endure impacts from explosions significantly greater than those with standard coatings. Our Energy Resistant Coating (ERC) technology allows structures to flex and absorb explosive energies, mitigating the risk of fragmentation and providing crucial additional escape time for personnel.
Corrosion Control for Military Vehicles
A protective polyurea layer shields against harsh environmental and chemical elements, maintaining structural integrity under challenging conditions and extending operational life and reliability.

Frequently Asked Questions
Doesn't the armor panel alone stop the bullet?
No, this is a common misconception. PAXCON, when used as a spall liner, is applied over armored panels. The armored panels are responsible for stopping the bullet, while the spall liner (PAXCON PX-2100) captures and contains the bullet's fragments. Without the spall liner, these fragments would scatter and pose a significant risk of injury. The primary function of the spall liner is to prevent these sharp fragments from causing harm to military personnel.
How do polyurea coatings protect against corrosion?
Polyurea coatings by Ultimate Linings provide a robust barrier against environmental factors that cause corrosion. These coatings adhere strongly to metal surfaces, creating an impermeable layer that resists moisture, chemicals, and other corrosive agents. By preventing rust and degradation, polyurea coatings extend the lifespan of military vehicles and assets, ensuring they remain operational and reliable in harsh conditions.
Why is impact protection important for military assets?
Impact protection is crucial for maintaining the structural integrity and operational readiness of military defense assets. Polyurea coatings absorb and distribute the force from impacts, minimizing damage and reducing the need for frequent repairs. This resilience helps maintain the functionality of vehicles and equipment, ensuring they are always ready for deployment.
What makes PAXCON PX-2100 effective for spall protection?
PAXCON PX-2100 offers superior protection by capturing and containing fragments from ballistic impacts. When applied over armored panels, it prevents spall, or the ejection of fragments, which can cause secondary injuries. The high-tensile strength and elasticity of PAXCON PX-2100 ensure that it effectively holds these fragments in place, enhancing the overall safety and effectiveness of armored vehicles in combat situations.
