The Pronal self-sealing block<\/strong> is designed to effectively protect fuel tanks integrated into aircraft wings or fuselage. In the event of ballistic impact, it reacts instantly. Thanks to its self-sealing technology, it seals any puncture caused by projectiles up to 7.62 mm<\/strong>. This prevents fuel leakage, thereby reducing the risk of fire, explosion, or loss of the aircraft.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Pronal<\/a> self-sealing block<\/strong> is designed to effectively protect fuel tanks integrated into aircraft wings or fuselage. In the event of ballistic impact, it responds immediately. Thanks to its self-sealing technology, it blocks any perforation caused by projectiles up to 7.62 mm<\/strong>. This prevents fuel leakage<\/strong>, reducing the risk of fire<\/strong>, explosion<\/strong>, or loss of the aircraft<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

A concrete response to military aviation challenges<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In operational contexts, aircraft are constantly exposed to threats<\/strong>. In particular, takeoff, approach, and ground support phases carry high risks<\/strong>. For this reason, the Pronal self-sealing block has been developed as an immediate passive protection solution<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, its lightweight<\/strong> and compact<\/strong> design allows for easy integration into unused internal areas. It complies with international military standards<\/strong> and requires no modification to the original aircraft structure<\/strong> or fuel system.<\/p>\n

An effective, field-adapted technology<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Made from nitrile \/ NPVC<\/strong>, the self-sealing block uses polymer materials that can instantly reseal<\/strong> upon perforation. Unlike other systems, the self-sealing block is installed without contact with rivets, ribs, or internal tank components. As a result, it perfectly adapts<\/strong> to existing structures, whether in wings or fuselage.<\/p>\n

Moreover, its design enables quick installation<\/strong> and simplified maintenance<\/strong>. By reducing risk without compromising aircraft performance, it is a strategic choice<\/strong> for air forces<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

A key asset in high-risk zones<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In conclusion, the Pronal self-sealing block offers enhanced safety while remaining easy to integrate<\/strong>. Thanks to its responsiveness<\/strong>, compatibility<\/strong>, and reliability<\/strong>, it is an ideal solution for protecting aircraft operating in hostile environments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
