The Head Argon2 is made from Innegra™ fibers. What’s Innegra™, you ask? Well according to the Innegra Website:
In panels made with Innegra S 2800 denier fiber and compressed with an olefin thermoplastic film, Innegra S has proven to be a suitable replacement for up to 75% of the aramid fibers with no loss in performance when tested against a 44 magnum projectile.
Oh never mind, here’s a video of fabric made of Innegra™ stopping a bullet:
If that’s what fabric can do, imagine the potential for your squash racket. If you are in a pinch and a bullet is being fired at you, you may do well to stick your Argon2 in its path. Please consult a doctor before trying this.
