SAPI plates HDPE (very light weight) Plate Level III (3) in conjunction with Body Armor level III-A

Description

The Small Arms Protective Insert (SAPI) is a ceramic trauma plate used by the United States Armed Forces.The Kevlar Interceptor vest itself is designed to stop projectiles up to and including 9?19mm Parabellum submachine gun rounds, in addition to fragmentation. To protect against higher-velocity rifle rounds, SAPI plates are needed.

Technical details:

  • Ballistic material: HDPE (Polyethylene?thermoplastic?made from?petroleum).
  • Protection level is III according to NIJ interim requirements.

Ballistic levels:

Bullet proof vests are designed to ?trap? and slow bullets down as they attempt to pass through the vest. Bullet Proof Vests come in two different types; hard and soft. The ?soft? armors are designed to protect against most handgun and small arms ammunition, whereas ?hard? armors are designed to stop high caliber and armor piercing rounds.

The NIJ classifies all armors in the following levels:

About HDPE:

HDPE is known for its large strength-to-density ratio.The density of HDPE can range from 0.93 to 0.97 g/cm3?or 970?kg/m3. Although the density of HDPE is only marginally higher than that of?low-density polyethylene, HDPE has little?branching, giving it stronger?intermolecular forces?and?tensile strength?than LDPE. The difference in strength exceeds the difference in density, giving HDPE a higher?specific strength. It is also harder and more opaque and can withstand somewhat higher?temperatures?(120??C/ 248??F for short periods). High-density polyethylene, unlike?polypropylene, cannot withstand normally required?autoclaving?conditions.?
