HESCO’s flagship 4800-800 body armor plates are a world apart from their competitors. That’s because they have been designed and created for maximum possible protection in some of the hottest combat zones in the world. The plates in this series offer enhanced protection and vastly superior performance compared to all the other personal protection plates available today. 

These plates have been built for one purpose only—to protect the operators in some of the world’s most heavily contested battle spaces. Since combat zones are very fluid, the HESCO 4800 series ensures that it doesn’t offer protection at the expense of mobility. This means that your HESCO plates would provide you with the ultimate combination with regard to extensive protection and a high degree of maneuverability and freedom of movement. 

All of HESCO’s 4800 series plates are precision-engineered from next-generation materials. At the same time, they utilize the latest armor plate manufacturing technologies. This is precisely why these body protection plates are light enough to be worn for long periods without causing fatigue and exhaustion. 

Add to that the fact that every HESCO 800 series armor plate comes equipped with a water-resistant coating wrap that’s rugged enough to withstand the rigors of combat. This external coating ensures that your plates can survive even when immersed in water without losing their protection capability or even retaining water weight. The end result: absolutely unmatched performance on and off the field! 

The 800 Series NIJ Level 4 Plates: The Most Effective Body Protection Solution!

HESCO’s 4800 series is both lightweight and reliable and offers the operative NIJ level 5 protection, which means that you will be suitably well protected against some of the most potent military rifles in the world. Your HESCO body armor plate system will protect you against rifle cartridges such as the 7.62×51 NATO (.308 Winchester) along with its parent caliber, the hard-hitting 30-06 AP (armor piercing) projectiles. Both of the above are a lot more powerful than the 5.56 NATO Green Tips currently used by NATO armies. 

The 800 Series has been built with Honeywell’s cutting-edge next-gen composite fabric, SPECTRA. This state-of-the-art material is directly responsible for its NIJ level IV protection capability. SPECTRA is much lighter than steel while being many times stronger. This means it is almost half as light as steel and other heavy metals while being considerably more resilient. 

The 4800-800 series of front and back plates are compatible with BI 4100 and BI 4101 Level IV side plates. Taken together, this setup offers overall protection against threats to the more vulnerable sections of the human body.
