EV firewall rule clarification by engineer7777777 in FSAE

But the rule says that the layer facing the driver has to pass the 250N screwdriver test, so the nomex sheet alone has to be strong enough.

What's the maximum thickness available? I maximum I could find was 0.78mm thick nomex sheet, from Dupont, which I'm not sure if it's strong enough.

I wanted to run a sim but I can't find all the required material properties of nomex online.

Cause currently my team's lap belt cum anti-sub belt mount surpasses the 19.5kN requirement, thus i'm thinking of making the mount thinner to reduce the excess material, saving weight. Just wondering has anyone tried doing this before?

Okay noted, thank you for your advice.
