In 2022, with the continuous upgrading of the technology of portable weapons such as rifles, the choice of bulletproof vests becomes crucial.
This article will tell you what you need to pay attention to when buying rifle plate bulletproof clothing, which will save you a lot of time and energy, and tell you why our SBA bulletproof plate is the best in the industry.
Ballistic Plate and Soft Body Armor
As we all know, bulletproof clothing is a kind of bulletproof equipment used to protect the trunk.
It usually has two types: soft armor and hard armor. Hard armor includes ballistic plate (also known as plate carrier).
Most soft armor can deal with NIJ II, IIA and IIIA levels, i.e. pistol threat. We will discuss the meaning of this level later.
Although soft armor has better comfort and lighter weight, soft armor is not enough to deal with the threat of high penetration rifle.
At this time, you need to choose bulletproof plate for protection.
Ballistic plates usually have two materials, the most common of which are ceramic and polyethylene.
Ceramic plates are heavier, but have high protection.
Another important problem is that it can only protect a limited number of shots, and each hit will weaken or destroy its protection until it can no longer protect your life.
Polyethylene Bulletproof Plates can overcome these shortcomings. Polyethylene Plates will not break after bullet impact. It is more flexible and lighter than ceramic plates.
It is the preferred material for the army and law enforcement forces, but there is also a fatal problem, that is, polyethylene plates is very expensive.
The Armor Level Of The Bulletproof Plate That Can Against The Rifle
The ballistic board level is divided into seven threat levels:
● level II
● level III
● level III
● level IV
Class II and III armour are soft armour designed to block pistol bullets, class III and IV armour are hard armour designed to block rifle bullets, and class III armour is used to defend against simple blade weapons.
Threat level is the most critical indicator to measure body armor. The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) manages a certification program to tell buyers what their armor can bring.
NIJ’s system divides bulletproof vests into different threat levels, from level II to level IV. When choosing rifle bulletproof clothing, you need to choose at least level III bulletproof clothing. The three-stage bulletproof vest can prevent 7.62x51mm NATO (all metal shell) from making six spaced impacts at a speed of 2750 feet per second.
However, slower or smaller caliber bullets still have the potential to penetrate armor. It depends on the bulletproof material, so you need to choose carefully.
A reliable rifle board factory will clearly tell you the advantages and disadvantages of these products.
The higher grade IV bulletproof vest is the highest rifle board grade under the NIJ personal bulletproof vest specification. However, it is designed to prevent one hit of the 7.62mm AP bullet, which is quite different from the six hits of the tier III.
Therefore, although level IV is higher than level III, it may not have better protection performance in practical use. Class III light rifle boards are now very popular.
You can browse and find them on the SBA website. SBA provides various types of bulletproof vests, including soft boards, bulletproof vests, etc. You can find a suitable bulletproof vest at the scene.
Type Of Rifle Plate Bulletproof Vest
Each component in the composite system has a specific function. The hard ceramic layer reduces the velocity of the projectile and miniaturizes the projectile. The resulting low mass and significant speed reduction of these residual fragments are completely absorbed in the composite substrate through elastic / plastic deformation.
The cheapest and heaviest is steel, but it is also the most dangerous, because armor will deflect bullets or shrapnel in all directions upon impact, making shrapnel fly in any direction at high speed, which may have serious consequences
For hard fiber laminate systems. Fiber metal laminate (FML) combines the high bearing strength and impact resistance of metal with the excellent fatigue performance, high strength and stiffness and corrosion resistance of fiber-reinforced polymer, so as to overcome most of the shortcomings of a single monolithic material.
This material has excellent properties and is usually used in bulletproof vests of rifles.
