|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Ball-Peen Hammer | 10 | 22 | 1.0 | One technician delivered 10 impacts with a Ball-Peen Hammer, no penetration or openings were created. |
| 2 | Ball-Peen Hammer | 10 | 24 | 1.1 | A second technician delivered 10 additional impacts with a Ball-Peen Hammer, no penetration or openings were created. |
| 3 | 1 1/2″ Diameter Pipe / 12-lb Sledge | 25 | 174 | 1.2 | One technician held the pipe while one technician swung a 12-lb Sledge Hammer. The pipe was held at different angles to evaluate the resistance of the sample to both puncture and gouging. |
| 4 | Extinguisher, CO2 | NA | 60 | 1.3 | Extinguisher fully discharged for 60 seconds. This step is designed to freeze the materials, mimicking cold weather and making the components more brittle for subsequent attack. Other products in the market avoid this step. |

| 6 | Propane Flame Torch | 300 | 1.5 | ACCESSGARD-2118: The propane torch was used IAW ASTM F1233-08, Section A1.5.2. The flame was continuously applied and was held such that the blue tip of the torch flame was no further than 1-in from the surface of the sample. The flame was initially held at the location of the hole that allowed the 1/8-in contraband rod to pass through at the completion of Sequence 5. The sample material began to melt and the torch flame was used to enlarge the opening. At the conclusion of this sequence, a fine mist of water was used to extinguish the still-burning material. The Forced-Entry Shape was able to pass through the hole created during this sequence. |
