They are hydro cut so no heat to fuck with the tamper.
Okay
I do know that much
I’m going to look into that. I know hydro cutting makes it safe for like he said the heat treat
Idk. I’d trust it to stop a 5.56 at anything more than cqb distance. And if im taking hits center mass at that distance I’ve got bigger issues than how many hits my plate will stop
But on their FB page they have adressed the NIJ claims several times.
That's a good point Stephen
I’m wearing ceramics right now
As a police supply store we literally couldn’t sell them to departments because of the lack of certification. We could sell to individual officer. If a officer bought them it was for a throw on carrier over their soft armor. But it wasn’t something we would take liability for.
@steve there is a video from...years ago, of some guys putting over 100 rounds of GT into the lvl 3 plate from 50ft(?) and it still didn't fail. Its reputation is well deserved.
My ceramics I’m wearing right now are about 6.3lbs each
Not bad at all
Because I wear large
Really? I thought they would be lighter?
The mediums are light
5.5lbs a plate
Same mine are seven because they're 10x12
Cause my 10x12s are 7 pounds and they are steel
Sapi?
Esapi
Ah mine are swimmer that explains it lol
Whats the thickness?
My 11x14 is 9lbs
SAPI are much lighter then ESPI lol
Late SAPI are literally 4.6lbs
Large
ESAPI are 6.3lbs large
That's still not bad
Don’t know thickness off hand
No it’s not bad
I wear it comfortably for hours and hours
I was thinking it was something like 1-1.5 inches
I’ll get calipers later on off shift
7 lbs for two plates doesn’t sound like much. But that’s a bitch of a difference in a day walk or long sprint.
I'll go check mine
6.3lbs per plate
Not both together
Its per plate
