Model 30260 Hard Armor Plate

Protection Level: Level III Stand Alone

The Model 30260 is a rugged hard armor plate engineered for stand‑alone rifle‑threat protection. Built with a multi‑curve ergonomic shape and 1.07″ thickness, this composite plate is designed to stop common rifle rounds while maintaining wearability in tactical and patrol carriers.

Key Features

 

• Stand‑alone Level III protection: tested to defeat rounds like 7.62×51 mm M80, 7.62×39 mm PS Ball (MSC), and 5.56×45 mm M193.

• Dimensionally thin: approximately 1.07″ thickness for a balance of protection and fit.

• Multi‑curve ergonomic design for improved fit and mobility.

• Composite construction (polyethylene or ceramic options) offering a lighter weight solution compared to traditional steel plates.

• Available in multiple sizes and cuts—full size and shooter’s cut—so you can select the size that aligns with your carrier and mission. Examples:

  • 6″ × 6″ full size ~0.8 lb

  • 10″ × 12″ full size ~2.7 lb

• Curved profile and configurable size let agencies tailor coverage vs mobility.
