Product type
Ballistic steel plates are specially engineered materials designed to withstand high-velocity impacts from projectiles. These plates are typically made from high-carbon steel or alloyed steel, which enhances their hardness and durability. The unique properties of ballistic steel make it suitable for applications requiring protection against ballistic threats, such as military vehicles, protective gear, and security installations.
| Material | High-carbon steel or alloyed steel |
| Thickness range | 3 mm to 50 mm |
| Hardness | Typically between 400 and 600 BHN |
| Standards | Complies with military specifications (MIL-A-46100) and other relevant standards |
| Weight | Varies based on thickness and size, typically 5 to 30 kg per plate |
When selecting ballistic steel plates, buyers should consider the specific threat level they need to protect against, which can dictate the required hardness and thickness. It is also important to specify any relevant military or industry standards for compliance. Additionally, buyers should clarify the desired dimensions and quantities, as custom sizes may be available upon request.
