26605 NIJ 0101.06 Certified Level IV SAPI Plate – Triple Curve, Multi-Hit, Stand-Alone Hard Armor

The 26605 Level IV SAPI Plate is a triple-curve, stand-alone, multi-hit hard armor solution designed for maximum protection, durability, and comfort. Certified under the NIJ 0101.06 Level IV Standard, these plates stop the most advanced armor-piercing rifle threats while maintaining a balanced weight-to-protection ratio.

Advanced Construction:
Built with a high-density reinforced alumina ceramic core (Al₂O₃) backed by lightweight layered polymer composite fiber, the 26605 provides superior ballistic performance. The black Cordura nylon covering enhances durability, while a foam pad on the strike face protects the plate during severe or repeated drops. While NIJ standards require plates to pass 2 drop tests, the 26605 undergoes an internal 10-drop test and X-ray inspection before environmental and ballistic testing for unmatched reliability.

Upgraded Performance:
As a newer, upgraded version of the 26148 and 26135 series, the 26605 offers a lighter backer plate, enhanced ceramic materials, and added foam protection. Unlike steel plates, these ceramic composite plates absorb projectiles within the strike face, eliminating dangerous bullet fragmentation and spall, ensuring safer real-world protection.
