USA Hockey Requirement
Mandate in effect August 1, 2024 for all u18 players.
Titan Battlegear's Upper Armor provides the safest neck & wrist guard shirt in the game.
Cut-resistance exceeds level A9, the highest possible level for lab testing.
The lab test is conducted with a Tomodynamometer, or TDM, which pulls a blade in 20mm paths across the material surface under varied gram loads and measures the weight needed to cut through. The sample is cut five times with three different loads and an average is calculated, resulting in a cut score of A1-A9.
After the level A9 test, Titan's proprietary cut-resistant material was still fully intact, resulting in a level of cut protection beyond the bounds of the test.
