Side Plates are great by Evalyn M., February 12, 2024
I have been wanting to get a set of side plates for some time and just ordered these. These were not my first choice, but the ones I got originally did not fit. I was surprised when the plates I thought were my second choice best, ended up being the ...

Product Info for AR500 Armor A2 Armor Plates

The A2 body armor is thin, low-profile, and low-weight, giving you maximum mobility without compromising stopping power. This armor is especially mobile at just 5.5 pounds and a thickness of .26''. Made with a custom steel alloy blend, this level 3 plus protection defeats all pistols and most rifles, including 5.56 M193 and M855 at speeds of up to 3,000 FPS. Guarantee yourself flexibility on the mission with next-level protection. Whether youre looking for something comfortable for long hours on duty, or something able to keep up with fast-paced action on the field, the A2 body armor has you covered. Tested to go above and beyond NIJ Level 3 standards, the shooters cut A1 plate is Level III+ rated to defeat all pistols and most rifle ammunition, including 5.56x45 M193, 5.56x45 M855/SS109 at 3,000 FPS as well as AK-47 rounds (7.62x39) and .308 (7.62x51 M80 NATO Ball) at 2,850 FPS. Also, thanks to the custom steel alloy blend, it is able to protect against several hits without shattering or breaking like ceramic or polyethylene would. It also provides the same protection on the edges as it does in the center, giving you true edge-to-edge coverage. The FragLock Coating, available in both Base Coat and Build-Up Coat versions, is a feature of AR500 Armor of the Armored Republic plates that protects both the user and the plate itself. It protects the user by helping either capture or deflect fragmentation (a bullets fragments after impact) and spalling (the armors fragments after impact). The Build-Up Coat is a thicker seal which does this better than the Base Coat, although both do it to a degree. The FragLock also protects the plate by sealing it from the elements, which could otherwise corrode the plate. With either version of the FragLock Coating, this plate has a shelf life of twenty years and requires no maintenance.image
