PGD DELTA Soft Armor NIJ IIIA – Medium (ESAPI cut)

The PGD DELTA soft armor NIJ IIIA in Medium size is an ultra-thin and lightweight ballistic insert in ESAPI cut. This panel is specifically designed to fit seamlessly into most common third-party plate carriers that utilize Medium ESAPI pockets. Production takes place in Denmark in an ISO9001:2015 certified factory, using only high-quality materials such as Teijin Aramid. Thanks to its ergonomic and flexible construction, the soft armor fits closely to your body, resulting in high wearing comfort and maximum freedom of movement during intensive activities.

Ballistic protection and stab resistance

This panel provides reliable protection according to the NIJ level IIIA standard against various handgun threats, including .44 Magnum and 9mm FMJ. In addition to ballistic protection, the PGD DELTA version is also tested for stab resistance according to NIJ 0115.00 S1, offering resistance to stabs with an energy of up to 36 joules. For situations with a risk of fragments or shrapnel, the panel is tested according to STANAG 2920, with a V50 value of 592 m/s.

Versatile use in carriers and backpacks

With a thickness of only 6.7 mm, this is one of the thinnest soft armor solutions on the market. The insert features a TPU cover that is ultrasonically sealed, making the panel completely water and sweat resistant. This makes it extremely suitable for daily professional use in challenging climates. In addition to its use in tactical vests, this Medium ESAPI version is also perfect for use as a ballistic insert in bags and backpacks with a laptop compartment or special insert sleeve due to its flat shape.
