Hardwire® Armor Systems
Hardwire® 51 Level II Ballistic Panel
The newest proprietary manufacturing technology from Hardwire® equates to the lightest armor in the world, with unprecedented stopping power. This sets a new standard in shock dissipation physics, momentum transfer efficiency, and ultimately,
ballistic properties.
Made of Dyneema® fibers and pressed under 25 million pounds of force at precise temperatures, Hardwire turns multiple layers of material into a single system. The results are millions of fibers that once acted independently, now act as one.
Features
- Lightest, thinnest Level II soft armor available
- Outperforms the hardest steels, yet light enough to float
- Record-breaking stopping power
- Made of Dyneema® fibers
- NIJ 0101.06 Level II compliant
