The New Ceramic Plate, the Colossus

The Colossus is the pinnacle of cutting-edge R&D in ceramic armor technology. Designed from scratch, this plate aims to be the toughest contender in the Level 4 Body Armor category, all while keeping its weight below the norm. How? By leveraging the most advanced materials on the planet and stripping down the construction to the bare essentials, the Colossus is all about pure, unadulterated strength without an ounce of excess.

1 Inch Thick Plate with Edge to Edge Protection

The Colossus™ is a future-ready armor plate, robust enough to thwart today’s modern AP (Armor Piercing) threats — and ready for the AP threats of tomorrow. Engineered to endure the brutal demands of warfare against top-tier adversaries, it provides protection that surpasses your standard Level IV or RF3 plates. And it does all this while tipping the scales at just over six pounds, significantly lighter than your average Level IV or RF3 plate.

Features:
SiC-TiB2 Composite Strike-Face: This next-gen ceramic material is specifically crafted to counter tungsten-cored small arms threats.

Next-Gen UHMWPE Backer: Enhances the overall durability and performance of the plate.

NIJ Level IV Rated: Capable of stopping 7.62mm AP rounds, including M993 and other similar threats.

Premium-Grade Thermoplastic Foam: Located on the strike-face for drop protection and on the body side for trauma reduction, serving as an integrated trauma pad.

Multi-Curve Geometry: Designed for comfort and a form-fitting experience.

Full-Sized Strike Face: Measures 10 x 12 inches with full edge-to-edge ceramic coverage. Custom sizes available to meet specific user needs.

Environmental Resistance: Performs consistently in diverse conditions, resisting moisture, heat, and cold.

With proper care and maintenance, the Colossus offers a service life of several years, making it a smart, long-term investment. The Adept Armor Colossus Ceramic Plate is the high-performance body armor solution you need, providing top-tier protection, durability, and comfort for high-risk environments.
