An extremely lightweight AND fairly thin bulletproof plate for plate carriers and body armor vests. NIJ III+ means these stop the most common "bad guy" guns out there. A single plate weighs only 0.8 kg / 1.8 lbs, which means a pair of these is about 10 lbs lighter than a pair of heavier ceramic NIJ IV plates! Weight really makes a difference when you want to stay agile and alert for extended periods. Read full description

NIJ III+ level protection

The NIJ 101.04 standard level III is tested with six hits from a 7.62 NATO rifle. In short, it offers protection from common non-AP rifle rounds.

The suffix + is used by many manufacturers to market plates that offer more protection than just the standard it exceeds. In this case, the extra protection you get is against these rounds:

  • 7.62x39 AP
  • 5.56x45 mm M193
