Body Armor For Gasoline Powered Insanity

Textile Research and Development company, Supreme Corporation®, of Conover North Carolina introduced a new cut, slash and abrasion protective apparel to the motorcycle industry. The product, Tuff-n-Lite® is presently one of the strongest materials in the World. Tuff-n-Lite® is ounce for ounce 15 times stronger than steel with the comfort and flexibility of cotton.

Senior Account Executive, Walter Schulein, says “unlike commonly used aramids, Tuff-n-Lite® will not sacrifice its strength when wet or exposed to sunlight.  It is also not affected by disinfectants, laundering, perspiration or common household bleaches.” 

Their clothing line includes shirts, pants, and leather bonded Tuff-n-Lite which offers 7 times more cut resistance than standard leather and up to 10 times more abrasion resistance than carbon steel.

The Insurance Information Institute reports that 4,798 people died in motorcycle crashes in 2006. About 88,000 motorcyclists were involved in crashes in 2004.

A safety product like Tuff-n-Lite® is well past due in the motorcycle market.
