Note that the Defender Vest has no strike plate pockets, however the Defender Plus has this feature.

Technically the most accurate terminology for a Bulletproof Vest is a Bullet-Resistant Vest or Anti-Ballistic Vest. No vest is 100% completely bulletproof - shoot enough rounds at any vest and it will break down and penetrations of the bulletproof panel will happen. Per independent lab tests and those that you can see on our videos, our vests do stand up against repeated handgun rounds - in one example, over 70 rounds fired with no penetrations. Other terms for a bulletproof vest include body armor, body armor vest, tactical vest, tactical body armor, and ballistic body armor. The most common vernacular, however is bulletproof vest or bullet proof vest in the civilian world, or body armor or tactical vest in law enforcement and security.

You might also be aware of the term kevlar vest, however, that refers to a specific type of anti-ballistic material under its own patent, whereas BulletBlocker vests, backpacks and travel accessories make use of UHMWPE UD (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) Laminations. There are also stab vests and we are pending independent testing and rating before we promote our products as stab resistant.

BulletBlocker UHMWPE UD (Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) Laminations are a Spectra Type, unique lightweight composite material providing superior anti-ballistic protection, for both personnel and vehicle protection. UD stands for "unidirectional": In UHMWPE UD Laminations, all the fibers are laid parallel, in the same plane, rather than being woven together. UHMWPE UD Laminations are made of several layers of UHMWPE fibers, with the direction of fibers in each layer at 90 degree to the direction of the fibers in the adjacent layers. The unidirectional configuration of the fibers in UHMWPE UD Laminations allows the energy transferred from the impact of a bullet or other ballistic threat to be distributed along the fibers much faster and more efficiently than in conventional woven aramid type fabrics. This is because the absorption power of the yarn in woven fabrics is lost at the crossover points, as these points reflect rather than absorb the shockwaves of the impact. In UHMWPE UD Laminations, much more of the material is engaged in stopping the bullet, making it more effective against ballistics. Dyneema® UD and Spectra are typical UHMWPE UD laminate materials. The polyethylene base material makes this one of the most moisture resistant anti-ballistic materials available.

Caution! Do not trust a used bullet proof vest as sold in other stores and web sites to protect your life. Used Body Armor may have been exposed to trauma, excessive sunlight, moisture or chemicals. Anti-Ballistic Textiles need to be cared for properly. There is no way to test for effectiveness or exposure to chemicals, moisture, sunlight or abuse. All BulletBlocker products are made from new materials. Please don't risk your life because of price.
