PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Introducing the RTS Ceramic NIJ 0101.06 Level IV Rifle Protection 6x8 Side Plate Insert, a crucial component of comprehensive Ballistic Protection. In high-threat environments, Side Armor is not just an option but a necessity. It provides critical coverage to the body's sides, which are vulnerable and often less protected compared to the front and back. Our side plate insert, measuring 6x8, is designed to deliver the same high level of protection as our renowned 10x12 plates, complying with the rigorous standards of NIJ 0101.06 Level IV.

Crafted from advanced Ceramic materials, this insert is capable of stopping Armor-Piercing Rifle rounds, offering an essential shield in life-threatening situations. Lightweight yet robust, it seamlessly integrates into existing RTS Tactical Plate Carriers, ensuring that your mobility and combat effectiveness are not compromised. By choosing the RTS Ceramic NIJ 0101.06 Level IV Side Plate Insert, you're equipping yourself with a vital layer of defense, enhancing your overall safety and readiness in any tactical scenario.

Customer Reviews

Overall rating: 4.7 / 5 from 35 reviews.

I ordered a set a couple years ago and everything but them came in. I asked for them and they seemed to not know what I was talking about. After finding the card that said they were on back order. I contacted customer service and the new manager over there got it resolved within a day. And I got them shortly after. I love the gear and happy they still sent them after all this time! I’ll be happy to shop here again
