HESCO’s 4400 body plates are a cost-effective and proven design. They offer lifesaving protection for high-risk operators in heavily contested environments. These cutting-edge personal protection plates are ideal for individuals who are the first to respond in dangerous active shooter situations.

The HESCO 4400 series has been equipped with a tough and weather-resistant Cordura nylon wrap to ensure that you and your body armor are well protected from the elements. All 4400 personal body plates are water-resistant and built to last. These plates also offer exceptional resistance from wear and tear and can survive harsh daily usage. They are precision-engineered to be highly cost-effective – albeit without compromising HESCO’s world-renowned quality and reliability. 

The state-of-the-art 4400MC plates provide maximum level IV protection and are designed to halt powerful military rounds in their tracks.

You can wear these plates with full confidence – well aware that you are adequately protected against some of the most powerful rounds in the world!  

It is also possible to add the flexible and versatile BI 4101 and BI 4100 Side Plates for further level IV protection. With the full complement of all four of these plates, you will be able to protect all of your body’s vital areas from the front, back, and sides.
