Reduce weight while maintaining the most vital protection
Our Adaptive Plate Insert, formerly known as the Trauma Plate Insert, dramatically increases versatility by allowing you to easily create an in-conjunction armor system, reduce armor size, or add soft or hard trauma plates for heart and vital organ coverage.
One example of a lightweight, smaller armor rig would be to run Hybrid IIIA 10”x12” body armor in your Veritas plate carrier and use the Adaptive Plate Insert with AR500 Armor® III+ lightweight 6”x8” armor as a trauma plate/speed plate to maintain coverage of your heart.
The Adaptive Plate Insert is compatible with both front & rear pockets, and accommodates 6” x 6”, 6” x 8”, and 8” x 10” ceramic, steel, or polyethylene armor, trauma plates, or speed plates. Simply attach the insert to the attachment panel on the inner pocket of your Veritas™ or Testudo™ (Gen 2) plate carrier for your custom configured armor setup.
Our Adaptive Plate Insert will place your body armor at the top of the plate carrier for the ideal right height and does have room for adjustment to ensure a perfect fit. Inner plate retention straps and guides ensure a secure armor fit with all compatibles sizes.

AR500 Armor Blunt Force Trauma Pad
When a bullet strikes body armor, the energy from the impact is transferred to the armor. What happens to the armor depends on the type and material. Soft armor flexes and “catches” the bullet, whereas hard armor can either shatter the bullet (steel), dissipate the force by breaking apart (ceramic) or capture the bullet by melting around it (polyethylene).
All AR500 Armor® in standalone configurations perform very well in tests against back face deformation (BFD) and energy transfer and are designed with BFD in mind.
Helps dissipate energy transfer
Each trauma pad is specially engineered to mitigate blunt force trauma in case your armor takes a round and reduces the amount of back face deformation that could occur, which can mitigate the risk of injury after impact.
Designed to be worn in conjunction with and behind your body armor, our Trauma Pads reduce the amount of energy transfer to your body, reducing felt energy through your armor. Our patented Advanced Shooters Cut (ASC) matches perfectly to our Level IIIA, III, III+, and III+ Lightweight body armor improving ergonomics with your rifle.
Compatible with AR500 Armor® body armor and most other armor systems and plate carriers.

AR500 Armor Dump Pouch
If you’re on the range and needing a pouch to hold spent mags, the AR500 Armor® Dump Pouch is a compact pouch with a big appetite
Not too big. Not too small. Just right.
Some dump pouches are very compact but have almost no form or shape to them, making it difficult to access the pouch quickly. Other pouches are very large and take up way too many PALS or belt real-estate.Our dump pouch combines the best of both worlds, with a rigid opening to aid access and a Velcro® closure to aid retention yet small enough to be almost unnoticeable until you need it. The genuine 500D Cordura® pouch sports a generous 7” diameter and 9” deep pouch that has plenty of room for magazines, equipment, or small gear. It comes with a MALICE CLIP® to attach to your MOLLE-compatible platform, and weighs only 3 ounces.

AR500 Armor Hard Backpack Armor
AR500 Armor’s carrier loadouts were all designed to offer front-and-back rifle stopping power as well as a place to put magazines and medical kits- a true combat-ready package. But since not everyone can manage carrying this with them all the time, we’re also proud to offer that same higher-level rifle protection in a package you can incorporate into your everyday accessories. So if you’re looking for rifle coverage you can conceal and take more places, this is where to look.
The Hard Backpack Armor (see specifications below) is the brother product to the soft backpack armor, making a trade of having a higher weight but being able to provide more protection: Independently tested to NIJ 0101.06 standards, the Level III version of this plate is rated to stop 7.62x51 M80 Ball (.308 win) at up to 2,780 fps, as well as all lesser threats, while the Level III+ version is rated to stop .223/.308 WIN rounds, 5.56 M855 penetrators, and 7.62x39/7.62x51/5.56 M193s all at velocities of up to 3,000 feet per second. As for weight, the Level III weighs 8.5 pounds while the Level III+ Lightweight weighs 9 - making both about the weight of two textbooks.
Designed to fit directly in the main compartment of most backpacks, this plate can fit well without a dedicated department, but also is well accommodated by laptop pocket (in most cases alongside your laptop) or hydration pouch pocket. As such, it is ready to be brought with you to your next outing without the need for any other accessories - just your preferred backpack or travel bag will do.
If you’re looking for another level of protection and won’t mind a bigger load, the Hard Backpack Armor will be right up your alley.

AR500 Armor Hard Side Plate
AR500 Armor® Side Body Armor is designed to be worn in side plate pouches that attach to a plate carrier system. Our 6"x8" side plates fit most side plate pockets and MOLLE pouches on the market. All AR500 Armor® Body Armor is 100% made in the USA and manufactured from our rugged and reliable ballistic core designed specifically for Armor applications.
Side protection for when it counts
Specifically designed to increase coverage on the peripherals of your plate carrier. AR500 Armor® Level III Side Armor Plates offer rifle-rated protection on the side of your plate carrier. Compatible with most plate carriers that include cummerbund mounted side plate pouches. Comes standard in the flat base coat configuration, with multi-curve and our proprietary FragLock build-up spall and frag mitigation coat available at a slight additional cost.
Level III is rated to defeat 7.62x51 M80 NATO Ball (.308 Winchester) at a velocity of up to 2,780 feet per second, and Level III+ and III+ Lightweight are rated for 5.56mm M193 ammo at 3,100 fps. Side plates are most applicable when increased armor coverage is desired from an entry or defensive standpoint. Non-squared-off shooting positions, traveling in vehicles, and situations, where fragmentation is a realistic threat, are scenarios where heavily running side body armor makes sense.
Also good for trauma plates/speed plates
When used with our Adaptive Plate Insert in conjunction with soft armor, our 6"x8" plates can be used as a rifle-rated trauma/speed plate, offering enhanced protection for your heart.

AR500 Armor Level III Body Armor
Essential protection ought to be affordable and reliable, which is why AR500 Armor is proud to offer one of the most cost-effective plates on the market with our Steel Level III (specifications below): An AR500 Steel plate, cut in our patented Advanced Shooters Cut shape and design, and covered with an exclusive FragLock™ Coat, in Base and Build-Up forms.
Our Level III Steel, 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 it is rated to stop 7.62x51 M80 NATO Ball (.308 Winchester) at a velocity of up to 2,780 FPS, and special threat tested to stop 5.56mm M855/SS109 (Green Tip) at a velocity of 2,780 FPS.
A benefit not elsewhere found in the industry, the Advanced Shooters Cut shape affords you additional room for your rifle stock, improving comfort and shooting ergonomics; this is available in right and left-handed configurations. It is also compatible with all standard plate carriers that accept SAPI or traditional Shooters Cut body armor, given there is an appropriately sized chest plate pocket.
Finally, the FragLock™ Coat is a unique feature that guarantees two benefits: First, it gives a twenty-year maintenance-free shelf life - making this steel plate far outlast ceramic or polyethylene alternatives. Second, the coating mitigates the dangers of spalling (when pieces of steel fragment off) and fragmentation (when the bullet’s remains fragment off), protecting the wearer from both the direct ballistic impact and the aftermath of the impact. The Build-Up Coat features stronger protection with the tradeoff of greater weight and size, while the Base Coat is lighter and thinner with less protection.

$43.80
AR500 Armor Quick Detach IFAK (QD IFAK)
Your search for a quick detach IFAK pouch has come to an end, and the AR500 Armor® QDIFAK is the answer.
Spacious, tear-away feature
Medical pouches typically fall into general-purpose, tear-away, or expandable pouch designs. The AR500 Armor® Quick Detachment and Deployable (QD) IFAK combine the best of all worlds with multi-stage deployment and a tear-away feature, mounting to your plate carrier, cummerbund, or any webbed surface and allowing full access to your medical kit immediately.
The exterior boasts front and side webbing for easy mounting and immediate access to your tourniquet and features a standard Velcro® patch panel. The mounting panel includes a Trauma Shear retention strap and mounting guides.
Once deployed from the closed position, the pouch folds out into a “middle stage” allowing rapid access to your trauma components. The further expansion releases your tear-away medical platform to full length creating an organized and retained display of your IFAK components. The entire platform can be quickly detached in either compact or expanded form for use anywhere your situation requires.
Durable elastic is spaced and sized according to a wide array of common medical and trauma supplies for easy customization and layout. Sections can be organized for medical situations such as Bleeding, Breathing, and Burns. Constructed from genuine 1000D Cordura Nylon, and reinforced with heavy-duty Bar-Tack stitching on all webbing. Includes two MALICE CLIPS® for attaching to your MOLLE-compatible platform.
If you don't have a medical kit to put in the QDIFAK pouch, we offer an IFAK refill kit that contains equipment necessary to provide treatment for a gunshot, knife/stabbing, or other bleeding injuries.
Malice Clips:
Two long (large) malice clips
IFAK Refill contents:

AR500 Armor Single Padded Side Plate Pouch
A real-life shooting isn’t always going to be a day at the range, where you face your target straight on. Armor systems acknowledge this by having a backplate and, based on our military’s experience in the Global War on Terror, side plates.
A two-way range is 360 degrees
Riding around in vehicles leaves your sides exposed to IED or shots attacking the side of the vehicle. The Padded Multi Side Plate Pouch addresses this by allowing up to 6”x8” side plates to attach to MOLLE-compatible or Velcro®-based plate carrier cummerbunds.
Slender in profile, our side plate pouch also features meshed padding for comfort and increased ventilation. Our wrap-around design holds 6”x6” or 6”x8” steel, ceramic, or polyethylene armor.
The side plate pouch works with most all existing and new cummerbund designs and attaches to MOLLE-compatible and Velcro® cummerbunds. Comes with a pair of color-matched MALICE CLIPS®.

AR500 Armor Soft Body Armor
from $83.02
$84.54
Our Rimelig option is made of p-Aramid Fibers and is available at both Level II and Level IIIA protection levels, which both provide multi-hit protection. The Rimelig is the most budget option of the three, making it a solid entry-level soft armor option, while still staying true to the goal of soft armor: Reliable lightweight protection, at just 0.45” thick and weighing 1.24 pounds.
The next level up is the Slim, which is made of two separate Aramid laminates joined together for greater strength. The symmetrical design of our Slim armor gives it a bidirectional capability, meaning it's perfect for use in a backpack, where you might use it on your back, or in front of you as a shield (slim armor panels will still have a "strike face" label, though it will be equally effective from either side, making it perfect for use in armored backpacks or bags). It provides Level IIIA protection and is only 0.36” and 1.25 pounds in our 10x12 ASC model.
Finally, for our most advanced option, the Hybrid is constructed from industry-leading materials from Honeywell Spectra Shield®, Honeywell Gold Shield®, and other ballistic fabric from respected manufacturers. The exceptional quality of these materials makes for an especially capable panel. The result is an ultra-thin and ultra-light piece of soft armor at 0.25” thick, 1.04 pounds.

AR500 Armor Soft Body Armor
For lightweight protection that’s easy to carry, AR500 Armor’s soft armor (specifications below) options give you the most value for the least sacrifice in affordability and stopping power.
Multiple soft armor types are available to choose from, each of which uses a different soft armor material with different weights and protection levels. However, there are similarities across each option: Every panel is either rated at Level II and Level IIIA (two handgun threat levels from the NIJ recommendations). Every soft armor panel is cut, sewn, and assembled in-house. And, like ceramic and polyethylene hard armor, these panels all have a 5-year shelf life.
Our Rimelig option is made of p-Aramid Fibers and is available at both Level II and Level IIIA protection levels, which both provide multi-hit protection. The Rimelig is the most budget option of the three, making it a solid entry-level soft armor option, while still staying true to the goal of soft armor: Reliable lightweight protection, at just 0.45” thick and weighing 1.24 pounds.

AR500 Armor Testudo™ Gen 2 Plate Carrier
In 36 BC, the historian Plutarch gave the first description of the Roman Army’s formidable Testudo formation. It consisted of a group of soldiers tightly packed, with shields held in front and above, so that nothing could penetrate the advancing unit. The Testudo Gen 2 carrier (specifications below) takes that vision and applies it to personal body armor: Having formidable protection by maximizing coverage.
The Testudo is made mostly of 500D Nylon, with bar tacks reinforcing all stress points and PALS webbing covering the outside for attaching your MOLLE-compatible pouches, holsters, and accessories. The generous padding also prevents chafing, making for an armor setup that’s easy to wear for long periods of time. The adjustable shoulder straps, made of nylon, also help you fit the carrier as the low offset makes the rear plate pocket ride at the proper height.
One of the biggest advantages of the Testudo is its cummerbund: A sash around the lower half of the carrier that both gives you side-plate pockets for extra armor and gives you full adjustability to tighten the carrier to a perfect fit. This adjustability makes the Testudo more than a “one-size-fits-all” solution since the size itself can be changed to best suit you.
If you’re looking for a carrier to accommodate your best armor and best gear, while keeping you comfortable the entire time, the Testudo Gen 2 is right for you. Get it by itself or in one of our bundles today.

We have gone above and beyond to bring you steel body armor of a HIGHER CALIBER.
This can be seen with our bend process, our fragmentation coating and our finishing details. This was the material that we started from and have the most experience with. We’ve seen it, done it, we’ve improved it.
Steel Body Armor provides great protection that can stop multiple projectile hits. We have been working with different levels of abrasion resistant (AR) ballistic steel for years and have not found a better product than our AR550 Steel Body Armor Plates. This armor is rated at a level III+ as it can defeat special threats like M855 rounds.
All of our steel plates come in one ergonomic curve option. We have worked with LE and first responders to design a curve that you can be comfortable wearing. We provide this at no additional cost. What is unique about the way that we bend our steel is important too. We have designed a press that creates a multi curve bend in ONE step. Why is this important? When you do multiple bends to achieve a multi curve, it puts extra strain on the plate which can weaken it. We have replicated the same curves that you have seen in multi curve ceramic armor for years.
Our aggressive Shooters Cut body armor plates shaves off weight while still providing enough coverage to protect your vital organs. Use our CaliberX™ Soft Armor Backers for even more protection and comfort.
Our standard AR550 plate comes coated to protect the plate from rust and the elements. One concern with Steel Armor is fragmentation containment. Some of that fragmentation is contained in the armor’s plate carrier, but there still is a risk of lethal shrapnel. We HIGHLY recommend our Caliber Anti-Spall add on. We have teamed up with our friends at Bullet Liner® to formulate an anti-spall coating specifically for our armor application. This addition to your steel plate gives you peace of mind when wearing steel armor.

SPARTAN ARMOR SYSTEMS® AR550 BODY ARMOR SHOOTERS CUT SET OF TWO
Product Overview
Spartan Armor Systems® has literally taken Level III-rated body armor to the next level by adding a 10% increase in ballistic core hardness to their AR550 line of armor. Because of this enhancement, our AR550 level III+ body armor offers operators advanced rifle-rated threat protection and has been special threat validated in an independent NIJ credentialed laboratory. Manufactured and tested within the highest quality standards, utilizing laboratory-certified steel, our single curve, full coat AR550 plates have received NIJ Certification under NIJ 0101.06 level III specifications. For added peace of mind, every plate of armor sold by Spartan Armor Systems® is serialized allowing it to be easily tracked back to the original plate of steel it was cut from should there be any question as to its ballistic properties.
Protective Value Added
We understand the NIJ rating system can be confusing. Simply put, our AR550 body armor is certified as NIJ (National Institute of Justice) level III rated but has undergone special threat testing to achieve a level III+ rating, click here to learn more. AR550 Single Curve, Full Coat body armor plates are labeled as level III on the back of the plate as the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) does not currently have a level III+ rating. “Level III+” indicates that special threat testing was created within the body armor industry to fill the void between NIJ 0101.06 level III and NIJ level IV, specifically to account for high-velocity penetrator rounds such as M855 (aka green tips). While AR550 single curve full coat plates are certified as NIJ level III, rest assured they are made from AR550 ballistic grade steel and have been special threat tested to attain the level III+ qualification. Quite simply, the NIJ requires that we label Spartan Armor Systems® AR550 Single Curve Full Coat Plates as “Level III” even though they are capable of providing the operator with a higher degree of ballistic protection.
Battle Hardened
Our AR550 armor hits the “sweet spot” in the Brinell Hardness (BHN) range. With a core hardness of approximately 545-560 BHN, we have found that the ballistically rated variant of AR550 that we use when manufacturing our AR550 armor is perfect for defeating higher velocity threats, while not exposing the armor plate to extreme stress due to forming.
Our AR550 Level III+ armor has our GEN2 lower cut radius, it’s much harder than AR500, but not so hard that it risks incurring severe stress while undergoing the formation process.
Laser Cut to Protect Ballistic Integrity
All steel core body armor is cut and shaped after the ballistic properties have been formulated within the steel. While other steel body armor manufacturers commonly use plasma torch cutting that applies excessive heat (25,000 ˚C / 45,000 ˚F) to a wide portion of the steel plate, Spartan Armor Systems® only utilizes laser cutting in order to protect the ballistic integrity of each steel core body armor plate we manufacture. Plasma cutting also requires grinding to clean up the edges after the fact, resulting in increased heat and possible fatigue.At Spartan Armor Systems®, we maintain the highest production integrity and quality standards every step of the way for our customers because we know what is at stake.
Additional Protection: Full Coat or Base Coat Options
We strongly recommend choosing our full coat option when you buy steel core body armor. Our proprietary plate coating, Encapsaloc™, is a potentially life-saving feature that captures spalling as a result of ballistic impacts on the strike face of the steel core armor plate. Do not settle for steel armor that is merely coated with generic truck bed liner spray coatings that have not been tested for ballistic efficacy. The strike face of our Spartan Armor Systems® AR550 Body Armor plates proudly bears the mark of our Spartan logo.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The base coat option only provides protection against corrosion and offers little to no fragmentation/spall mitigation. Should you choose to select base coat plates, please consider adding our Spall Containment Sleeve (sold separately) as a means of fragmentation mitigation.
Blazing The Trail of Innovation
Our AR550 Spartan Body Armor now offers operators the option of coming with the Advanced Triple Curve (ATC) feature. This is an industry FIRST! Spartan Armor Systems®™ is proud to be the LEADER in the industry when it comes to offering our customers triple-curved AR550 body armor. With higher velocity rifle threats commonly present throughout the United States, we’ve developed this AR550 armor to specifically defeat some common threats such as 5.56 x 45 XM193, 5.56 x 45 M855 /SS109, and 7.62 x 51 (.308 Winchester) at a rated velocity of 3,100 fps or less. Additionally, we’ve successfully defeated these threat profiles from Close Quarters Battle (CQB) distances…repeatedly!

All purchases of our Spartan Armor products have current lab certificates available on request, ensuring you have peace of mind when it comes to receiving the highest quality and integrity with your Spartan Armor Systems® body armor. For added peace of mind, every plate of armor sold by Spartan Armor Systems® is serialized allowing it to be easily tracked back to the original plate of steel it was cut from should there be any question as to its ballistic properties. Don’t settle for sub-standard, ineffective, low-quality steel armor - your life may depend on it. Read our "FAQ" to learn more about the extensive testing and quality assurance all Spartan™ Omega™ AR500 Body Armor is subjected to and to learn about the quality of steel we use to construct our body armor!

While other steel body armor manufacturers commonly use plasma torch cutting that applies excessive heat (25,000 ˚C / 45,000 ˚F) to a wide portion of the steel plate, Spartan Armor Systems® only utilizes laser cutting to protect the ballistic integrity throughout the entirety of each steel core body armor plate we manufacture.

Exceptional Comfort & Engineering
You have the choice of getting our Spartan™ Omega™ AR500 Body Armor formed on a continual radius die (single curve) or with our proprietary and patented Advanced Triple Curve™ (ATC) formation. It is important to note that our single curve plate is the equivalent of what our competitors deem “multi-curve” and our ATC design is a true multi-curve plate with unique curvature at the top, bottom, and sides of the plate. At Spartan Armor Systems® we have machined custom tooling to craft our plates with a sleek curvature that conforms and wraps to your torso for enhanced ergonomics. Spartan Armor Systems®™ is proud to be the FIRST in the industry to commercially offer the triple-curved Spartan™ Omega™ AR500 Body Armor. Spartan Armor Systems®’ ATC body armor allows the operator to shoulder their weapon with the most freedom and limited discomfort. The ATC design provides a snug, comfortable fit and “hugs” the operator’s body, resulting in a significant increase in comfort and operational maneuverability. Our custom-configured CNC equipment and advanced understanding of what makes Steel Core Armor most effective has allowed us to create dies that form our body armor without any “crease” bends. Crease-bends, “work hardens” the plate, which causes a significant amount of stress to the portion of the plate being placed under load during the manufacturing process. We HIGHLY suggest when doing your research, that you ask any manufacturer under consideration if they crease bend their body armor. This process results in increased potential for plate fatigue and failure, which is why Spartan Armor Systems®™ has gone the extra mile to create this unique die process.

Product Overview
Sleek, lightweight, and ready to move, the Swimmers Cut Spartan™ Omega™ AR500 Body Armor affords operators with increased mobility, a decrease in overall weight. The “Swimmers Cut” gets its name from the improved range of motion in the shoulders due to the angle of cut in the top corners of the plate.

Swimmers Cut Spartan™ Omega™ AR500 Body Armor is constructed from lab certified AR500 ballistic grade steel, (¼” thickness) and these body armor plates provide the operator with Level III protection in accordance with NIJ0101.06 standards. For added peace of mind, every plate of armor sold by Spartan Armor Systems® is serialized allowing it to be easily tracked back to the original plate of steel it was cut from should there be any question as to its ballistic properties.
