The MT-PRO™ ballistic panel from the American brand Engarde provides us with superior protection against bullets, needles, and stabbingsthis combination makes it perfect for use in private security or in the police field. Funda Engarde Deluxe included.

Specifically, the ballistic panels meet the NIJ .04 Level IIIA standards of ballistic protection and also has protection against needles passing the VPAM KDIW 2004 test (5 J) and knife protection passing the HOSDB test P1 Knife (15 J <20mm).

The panels are made with Dyneema®, a high molecular weight fiber 15 times stronger than steel, and with TitanSkin™ technology that offers knife protection.

The Engarde MT PRO IIIA vest offers us all this in just 8 mm and with a weight of 1.8kg (size M).

If you have doubts between the MT PRO vest and the FLEX PRO, the clearest difference between the two is rigidity, the FLEX PRO as its name indicates is more flexible and therefore more comfortable to wear, especially for women. Regarding protection, the main difference is that the MT PRO includes needle protection, while the FLEX PRO does not include it, apart from this they have some other differences related to ballistic protection tests and anti-fragmentation, but they do not make a significant difference.

Includes a transport bag. It has 7-year warranty by the manufacturer.

Sizes:

1.- Measure A: measure right at the navel.

2.- The sizing with Full-Wrap the panels touch on the sides without one being placed on top of the other, with Over Lap the panels on the sides have an overlap of about 5cm (2"). The model with Overlap is recommended for those who are looking for the maximum protection, as a negative point they will have less freedom of movement.

3.- Measurement B is calculated from the navel to the sternum, check that it corresponds to the vest size that was appropriate for you based on the measurements from step 2. 

In the event that it does not apply, you can choose between one size up or one size down. To select one size or another you have to consider if you want the vest with Full Wrap (no overlap) or Overlap (with overlap).
