Frangible bullets are ones specifically designed to break apart into many pieces when they impact something. There are two purposes to this design:
- Creation of a large, but localized wound - that is, the bullet fragments cause a much larger wound at the site of impact than a normal bullet, but do NOT have the tendency to bounce around inside the target's body.
- Avoid the "through-and-through" possibility, where the bullet travels all the way through the target, exiting and continuing on, possibly hitting another target.
Frangibles are typically used in close-quarter situations, since they have poorer ballistic characteristics than ordinary bullets (and, thus, a shorter range), and because they help avoid "collateral damage" due to #2 above. The point behind using a frangible is that the target should be dealt a severe, but localized, wound (putting it out of action) without endangering those nearby.

What does frangble mean?
"Frangible" refers to something that is easily broken or shattered. It is often used in the context of materials or objects that are delicate and can be damaged with minimal force. For example, frangible materials may be used in specific applications where safety or ease of breakage is a concern, such as in certain types of ammunition or packaging.
What is a Frangible bulb sprinkler?
A frangible bulb sprinkler is a type of fire protection sprinkler that uses a glass bulb filled with a heat-sensitive liquid to activate. When exposed to heat from a fire, the liquid expands, causing the bulb to shatter and release water from the sprinkler. This design allows for quick and localized fire suppression, as the sprinkler activates only in the area experiencing high temperatures. Frangible bulb sprinklers are commonly used in various settings, including commercial and industrial facilities.
