Soft armour
XTEK utilises the latest technology and advanced engineering to provide flexible and lightweight Soft armour Solutions with several Soft Armour Panels being NIJ Certified. Soft armour is commonly used for protection by the Police and emergency services. HighCom Armor has a broad range of soft armour products available. |
Hard armour plates
XTEK’s Small Arms Protective Insert Plates are up to 30% lighter than other products and have buoyancy potential. XTEK has developed two UHWMPE only SAPI plates addressing the MSC, tested in accordance with NIJ0101.06 (sans section 6). XTEK is developing hybrid material SAPI plates for other threat and threshold requirement levels. |
Combat ballistic helmet
XTEK’s ballistic helmet shells can stop AK-47 MSC bullets and fragments. The challenge is to ensure uniform ballistic properties in the deep draw geometry of the helmet from every angle. Deep drawing ballistic materials is no simple feat, but XTEK has developed the technology to produce ballistically uniform helmets without slits or overlaps to meet MSC threat level. |
Platform armour
XTEK’s advanced materials can be used for ground / air vehicles; shields and building protection. |
