B4C+PE Stand Alone Ballistic Plate Fit With Pouches Vests

A B₄C+PE Stand Alone Ballistic Plate is a type of body armor plate designed to provide protection against high-velocity projectiles, particularly rifle rounds. These plates are typically used in conjunction with a compatible vest or carrier to create a complete ballistic protection system.

The notation "B₄C+PE" refers to the materials used in the plate:

B₄C (boron carbide): Boron carbide is a ceramic material often used in ballistic plates due to its exceptional hardness and lightweight properties. It is one of the hardest known materials and can effectively shatter or disrupt incoming projectiles, reducing their ability to penetrate the armor.

The term "Stand Alone" means that this type of ballistic plate is designed to provide the specified level of protection without the need for additional soft body armor (like Kevlar) behind it. Stand-alone plates are typically thicker and heavier than plates designed to be used in conjunction with soft armor, as they need to provide all the necessary protection on their own.

When used in conjunction with vests, these B₄C+PE Stand Alone Ballistic Plates provide a high level of protection against rifle rounds, making them suitable for military and law enforcement applications where protection against high-velocity projectiles is essential. The specific level of protection may vary, so it's important to check the plate's rating, often conforming to standards set by organizations like the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) or other relevant international standards.
