AFL-601 is a UL Classified Wind-Storm Rated Assembly passing the stringent ICC 500 test standards for both structural and debris impact criteria in accordance with FEMA Guidelines P-320 and P-361. Model AFL-601 is ideal for FEMA tornado safe rooms, storm shelters, and applications in the Hurricane-Prone Region or any location where maximum protection against wind-driven rain is necessary.
