The steel variant of the Blast-Ex jet blast deflector is manufactured at the company's German facility from structural, stainless and heat-resistant steels and is hot-dip galvanized during production. It reliably deflects and slows the prop- and jet-blast of maneuvering aircraft to protect people, vehicles, facilities and nearby roads, and also mitigates Foreign Object Damage (FOD).
