The T4100 Level IV Side Armor Plate delivers premium rifle-rated side protection in a compact, lightweight design. Proudly Made in the USA, the T4100 is available in both 6″ × 6″ and 6″ × 8″ sizes, making it an ideal solution for enhancing protection without sacrificing mobility.
Engineered with an advanced segmented hexagonal alumina ceramic strike face bonded to a UHMWPE (Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) composite backer, the T4100 side plate is designed to provide dependable Level IV ballistic protection while maintaining a lightweight profile. The precision-engineered hexagonal ceramic array helps localize impact damage and minimize crack propagation, enhancing multi-hit capability compared to traditional monolithic ceramic designs.
As a stand-alone armor plate, the T4100 provides Level IV protection without requiring additional soft armor. Its ergonomic single-curve profile contours naturally to the body, offering increased comfort and improved fit in compatible side plate pouches.
The T4100 Side Plate has been independently tested to NIJ Standard 0101.06 and is engineered to meet the ballistic performance requirements of the Level IV standard, providing confidence in demanding operational environments.
Designed to complement front and rear rifle plates, the T4100 Level IV Side Armor Plate provides critical side torso protection against high-powered rifle threats. Its lightweight construction, advanced segmented ceramic technology, and ergonomic single-curve profile make it an excellent choice for law enforcement, military personnel, security professionals, and responsible civilians seeking reliable American-made side armor.
