Ballistic protection with integrated trauma control LFT SB1 plus Today’s military and police forces are requiring increased protection levels against a wider spectrum of threats, while demanding that their ballistic vests are as lightweight and comfortable as possible. In addition, reduced Back Face Deformation (BFD) is now a key priority for the latest-generation high-performing soft ballistic vests. In the past, BFD reduction was achieved by flexible ballistic panel systems containing special anti-trauma materials. However, such systems usually increase the weight and stiffness of a ballistic vest, making it much less comfortable to wear. To meet the increased demands of the market, Teijin Aramid developed Twaron LFT SB1 plus, an integrated solution that combines high ballistic performance with comfort, flexibility, and substantially reduced BFD. Key benefits of using Twaron LFT SB1 plus • educes BFD by 30% while offering R the same high ballistic performance as conventional systems • esults in a lighter weight ballistic vest R • akes the vest soft, flexible and easy M to wear • uitable for hybrid solutions S

Twaron LFT SB1 plus – reduces BFD by 30% Twaron LFT SB1 plus is the next generation of soft ballistic protective materials with integrated trauma control. LFT SB1 plus consists of four layers of Twaron, arranged in 0°, 90°, +45° and -45° orientations, and laminated together with a small amount of resin. Meeting ballistic standards Twaron LFT SB1 plus meets all the requirements of the NIJ 0101.04, NIJ 0101.06 and HOSDB standards. All ballistic panels tested had similar weight and included PE foam. Twaron LFT SB1 plus reduces Back Face Deformation (BFD) by up to 30% compared to standard solutions...
