NIJ Certified Level IV Swimmer Plates (26125) 

~SOLD IN PAIRS~

 

These are without question the best deal available for top quality, LIGHTWEIGHT body armor plates. The materials used in the fabrication of these plates allows for projectiles to be absorbed within the plate itself, preventing dangerous spall as is common with steel plates. Don't rely on your carrier to stop high speed bullet fragmentation.

Our 10×12 inch single-curve hard armor swimmer cut plate is certified NIJ 0101.04 Level IV Stand Alone. Manufactured from high-density alumina ceramic core (Al2O3) backed with layered polymer composite fiber.

All our Hard Armor Plates are Made in the USA by LTC, Leading Technology Composites, the worlds largest and most respected body armor manufacturer.

Specific weights and sizes are listed below. All figures are nominal. Some variation based on manufacturing tolerance may apply.  

Fits all standard carriers. 10x12 medium or large carrier.

Some popular items/sizes may incur a 4-8 week lead time.

WHICH PLATE SIZE IS RIGHT FOR ME?

Personal preference is the single most important determining factor when choosing the right size armor for any individual. The wearer must feel comfortable in whatever system and size they choose in order to maximize the effectiveness of any armor system. That having been said, the prior standard for all plates was 10”x12”. Military specifications now include a full range of sizes from Small to Extra Large, however size Medium, 9.5”x12.5” is considered the ideal fit for the 95th percentile, meaning that Medium is designed to fit 95% of all military personnel. 

In order to provide a more easily discernible size chart we focus on the height of an individual as the most important factor in determining proper fitment. See the outline below for a general height / plate size reference. Keep in mind, personal build, and personal preference are the most important factors.

If you purchase a set of plates that you feel is the wrong fit, call us for guidance and to get a quick and easy exchange.
