Level IV Body Armor Plate – Lightweight 5.6 lb 10×12 Rifle Protection
Maximum rifle protection doesn’t have to mean maximum weight.
The Legacy Safety & Security Level IV Body Armor Plate combines an alumina ceramic (Al₂O₃) strike face with polyethylene (PE) composite backing to deliver serious rifle-rated protection in a lightweight 10×12 armor plate.
At approximately 5.6 lbs for a 10×12 plate, Legacy gives law enforcement officers, security professionals, military personnel, first responders, and responsible civilians a lighter alternative to many traditional Level IV armor plates.
Serious Level IV Protection. Less Weight to Carry.
When you’re wearing armor for hours, every pound matters.
Traditional Level IV plates can add significant weight to a tactical loadout. Legacy’s lightweight ceramic and polyethylene construction helps reduce that burden while maintaining the high level of ballistic protection expected from Level IV body armor.
A front-and-back 10×12 setup weighs approximately 11.2 lbs in armor plates, helping improve mobility and reduce fatigue compared with heavier Level IV systems.
Alumina Ceramic + PE Composite Construction
The Legacy Level IV plate combines two proven armor materials:
Alumina Ceramic (Al₂O₃) provides the hard strike face designed to disrupt and defeat high-energy rifle projectiles.
Polyethylene (PE) composite backing works behind the ceramic strike face to absorb energy and capture projectile and ceramic fragments.
The result is a strong, lightweight composite armor system designed for serious rifle-threat protection.
