Level 3A Body Armor
For individuals that are seeking a high level of protection, but still want the ease of movement provided by softer materials, level 3A body armor is a perfect choice. It is light enough and thin enough that it can easily be worn underneath clothing in a covert plate carrier. L3A armor is ideal for both law enforcement officers and civilians who require more protection but do not want to be weighed down with the heavy steel of
level 3 body armor.
Our level 3A body armor inserts are constructed from the best ballistic Kevlar material available. The advantage of using Kevlar is that it has a high tensile strength-to-weight ratio, which means that it can withstand a significant amount of force without breaking. Under the National Institute of Justice rating system, our level 3A body armor is suitable for protection against handguns and other small arms, including .44 Magnum and .357 SIG. Our inserts can even withstand a hit from a Smith & Wesson .50 cal!
Quality Protection You Can Trust
You can always feel confident that you are purchasing a superior product when you buy from Body Armor Megastore. Our level 3A body armor inserts, as with our many of our other products, have been independently tested and certified by H.P. White Laboratory for effectiveness. Using state-of-the-art equipment, they determined that our L3A armor inserts meet the rigorous NIJ standards. They conducted an additional test in which they submerged the inserts, and they were still proven to be effective against multiple types of small arms fire. Not only that, but they are capable of receiving numerous blows and remaining intact.
With each plate weighing only 1.2 pounds, these Kevlar inserts can be used by just about anyone seeking protection. The lightweight, durable material is soft and won’t impede your movement by weighing you down. It can be worn by amateurs at the shooting range who are not used to carrying excessive weight. The inserts are durable enough to stand up to just about everything except for high-powered rifles.
Level 3A body armor is ideal for law enforcement officials. Since police officers and others put their lives on the line every day, it makes sense to be ready for a situation that unexpectedly turns hostile. Studies show that anywhere from hundreds to thousands of officers’ lives are saved every year by wearing proper protection. It is typically recommended that the armor you wear should be equivalent to the duty load that you’re carrying. That’s because there are situations where someone might grab your weapon and attempt to harm you with it, so it’s best to be prepared with the right level of protection.
As with all body armor plates, it is essential to make sure that you also
buy a tactical vest or
plate carrier. Our vests are available in sizes medium to extra-large to ensure that everyone can get a vest with a proper fit. If the plate carrier is too large or too small, it will not provide adequate protection.
