Description
A2 Body Armor: Maximum Mobility with Level 3+ Protection
Thin, Lightweight, and Powerful Defense
The A2 body armor from Armored Republic is thin, low-profile, and low-weight. Ergonomically curved. Sprayed with the proprietary FragLock™ coating for frag protection & preservation of the plate. Especially mobile at just 5.5 pounds with a thickness of 0.26″. Made with a custom steel alloy blend.
Multi-Hit Capability
Tested to go above and beyond NIJ level 3 standards, the curved, shooters cut A2 armor plate is level 3+ rated to defeat all pistols and most rifle ammunition, including 5.56×45 M855/SS109 at 3,000 FPS, 5.56×45 M193 at 2,900 FPS, as well as AK-47 rounds (7.62×39) and .308 (7.62×51 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.
Innovative FragLock™ Coating
The FragLock™ Coating, available in both Base Coat and Build-Up Coat versions, is a feature of Armored Republic plates that protects both the user and the plate itself. The Base Coat seals the armor plate from sweat and other contaminants that would compromise the steel core & deflects bullet fragmentation away upon impact. The Build-Up Coat captures fragmentation within the coating. With either the Build-Up or Base Coat of FragLock™, this plate has a shelf-life of twenty years and requires no maintenance.
