Essential protection should be reliable and affordable, which is why Armored Republic is proud to offer one of the most cost-effective plates on the market with their AR500 Armor Multi-Curve Heritage Plate. The plate material is a steel alloy blend, has Armored Republic's patented Advanced Shooters Cut shape, and is covered with an exclusive FragLock Base Coat. This steel plate lasts a lot longer than polyethylene or ceramic alternatives because of the FragLock coating's 20-year maintenance-free shelf life. The AR500 Armor Heritage Armor Plate, unlike ceramic or polyethylene alternatives, is capable of protecting against several direct hits while still being less bulky than competing materials. It also has been independently tested in accordance with NIJ 0101.06 threat levels through Oregon Ballistics (OBL), and H.P. White Laboratories. This means that its level 3 body armor protection is rated to stop 7.62Ã-51 M80 NATO Ball (.308 Winchester) at a velocity of up to 2,750 FPS, and special threat tested to stop 5.56mm M855/SS109 (Green Tip) at a velocity of 2,750 FPS.
