Ceramic Armor Plates, Class 6, XL by Global Ballistics

Ceramic armor plates, Class 6, XL — are modern body protection from the manufacturer Global Ballistics, designed in accordance with NATO standards and certified to protection level NIJ IV+. The weight of one plate is 3.7 kg, size — 270x340 mm (27×34 cm), thickness — 23 mm. The plates are designed for installation in vests and armor kits and provide the maximum level of protection while maintaining user ergonomics and mobility.

Materials and Construction

The armor plates are made of high-quality ceramic combined with an aluminum backplate, which combines the ability to effectively dissipate bullet energy and a strong backing to absorb residual energy. The design features a 3D curve for a better fit on the chest and back, which reduces gaps between the body and the protective surface and increases comfort during prolonged wear. The plates are designed for installation on both the chest and back.

Ballistic Characteristics and Certification

The plates have undergone independent laboratory tests and have a ballistic test certificate. They provide protection against powerful ammunition, including 7.62×54 API cartridges (armor-piercing incendiary bullets). The design allows for multiple hits — more than 3 shots within the permissible zones for retaining protective properties after several impacts. Certified tests and independent laboratory results guarantee compliance with stated characteristics and reliability in real-world conditions.
