The Hesco Armor 200 Series of ballistic armor plates is engineered to provide maximum concealability, offering protection against firearm threats in a low-profile, low-visibility package.

Each insert comes with a polyurethane-coated Cordura® housing for protection against sweat, humidity, and exposure to the elements.

Features:

• Multi curve SAPI cut
• Special rifle threat
• Small

The 200 Series U210-SA-MC-S armor plate is neither Level III nor Level IV. Instead, it protects against what the industry terms Special Rifle Threats, such as the world’s most common intermediate rifle calibers (.223 Remington, 5.56×45mm, 7.62×39mm).

Hesco certifies that this Special Rifle Threat plate will stop the following:
All NIJ certified pistol-caliber threats (IIA, IIIA) up to .44 Magnum.
All NIJ certified shotgun threats, including 00 buckshot and 1 oz. slugs.
Specific rifle-caliber threats: 5.56×45mm NATO ball (M193, 3 hits), 7.62×39mm lead-core (M67, 3 hits), 5.56×45mm NATO steel penetrator (M855: 3 hits, M855A1: 1 hit), 7.62×39mm steel core (M43, 3 hits), 7.62x39mm armor-piercing incendiary (BZ, 1 hit)

At 3.5 lbs, the Small version of the Hesco Model U210 is the lightest, providing wearers of reduced stature with full protection against projectiles commonly fired from AR-15 and AK-47 platforms, as well as most handguns and shotguns.

This multi-curved plate features a SAPI cut, similar in appearance to military issue SAPI / ESAPI / XSAPI plates. This plate is best used as frontal armor, as it provides a balance between coverage of the upper body vitals and freedom of arm movement.
