Light as Air by Mike, February 14, 2024
It's hard to over-state how light this plate is. Using these, you carrier and plates could weigh as much as a single typical steel or ceramic plate. They are about 1" thick though, so make sure your carrier can take them.

Lightest armor I have ever seen by Evalyn M., February 12, 2024
First the picture is not what I received. I received a plate that was similar in shape but was a bit more glossy with different angles in the corners. After confirming with the company it was authentic, I was happy to find out this was the real deal....

Product Info for AR500 Armor Level III Lightweight Polyethylene Body Armor

The P2 - Polyethylene Body Armor is made of polyethylene material and provides high-grade protection that wont fatigue you when youre active and wont endanger you when youre near water. Tested independently to NIJ Level 3 standards, the P2 plate provides level 3 protection which is capable of stopping the 7.62x51 M80 Ball at 2780 FPS. It has also been tested to stop some special threats; it will defeat 5.56x45 M193 at 3150 FPS and 7.62x39 AK-47 at 2380 FPS. Due to the way this armor functions, it is incapable of stopping MSC/EP rounds such as M855.image

Polyethylene stops threats by capturing the bullet in its material- the heat of the spinning bullet softens the polyethylene enough to melt it partially, allowing the bullet into the material, where it then is stopped by the remaining unmelted fibers within the plate. As the bullet slows down, the polyethylene then rehardens. Because of its unique way of stopping bullets, polyethylene is able to take multiple hits without shattering like ceramic plate alternatives.

The primary benefit of the P2 polyethylene armor plate, however, is its weight: Only PE hard armor can provide rifle-rated protection at under four pounds. The greater activity this allows makes polyethylene a popular choice for some military personnel.

As with our other hard armor options, the P2 armor plate is also sprayed with our FragLock solution to seal it from the elements.
