Level III++ SAPI or Swimmer Plate (19513)
~SOLD AS SINGLE PLATE~
VERY LIMITED QUANTITIES REMAINING
Our 19513 series 9.5x12.5 inch triple-curve hard armor SAPI cut plate is a Level III++ Stand Alone armor plate manufactured from high-density alumina ceramic core (Al2O3) backed with layered polymer composite fiber. Rounds are absorbed by this plate on impact, rather than deflected or fragmented.
The Hoplite Armor 19513 Series Level III++ plates are designed to provide a more affordable option for Level III rifle rated armor with Special Threat Protection against M855, M855A1 and 7.62×39 Mild Steel Core.
The 19513 Series plates have been validated according to NIJ 0101.06 ballistic standards at Chesapeake Testing, the worlds most trusted NIJ Certified laboratory, but have not been put through the complete NIJ Certification test due to the limited number available. They are however guaranteed to perform against all stated threats with minimal backface deformation, greatly outperforming every plate in its class.
Each plate weighs only 5.25 lbs and outperforms every Level III / III+ / III++ plate option from every major manufacturer in the United States at a significantly lower cost.
All our Hard Armor Plates are Made in the USA by LTC, Leading Technology Composites, the worlds largest and most respected body armor manufacturer.
Fits all standard Medium sized carriers.
Some popular items/sizes may incur a 4-10 week lead time. This is a custom solution that requires specific materials. It is however well worth the wait.

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.
