At WEIDUN TECHNOLOGY, we are passionate about protecting and saving lives. We've partnered with the best brands under a strict set of guidelines and offer the high quality body armor and safety equipment available on the market.
Whether you are a professional already familiar with body armor, or a normal civilian just looking to protect yourself, our gear and equipment will provide you with the protection and security you can trust.
What is Body Armour?
Sometimes called a body armour vest, stab vest or ballistic vest, they are essentially protective items of clothing that are designed to defend against very specific threats. The two main categories are soft armour and hard armour. For civilians and private security in the UK, soft armour is by far the most common.
Metal plate style Chinese body armour vests that you can get on Amazon and Ebay could theoretically be called hard armour but they are not rated and certified so we do not really include them in discussions about real vests. If you are looking to buy body armour, we would recommend avoiding these.
After the Soft/Hard category, armour is generally divided into Ballistic Vest and Stab Vests. This refers to the threat that they were designed to protect against and are normally certified to resist. At Interconnective, we only sell certified body armour, normally under the UK or US standard. When you buy body armour, this is the first thing you should look for.
What is Soft Armour?
Soft armour generally consists of a cover or carrier which holds two armour panels, one on the front of the body and one on the back. The panels are generally made from a combination of materials that will include things like Aramid Fibre or Dyneema. They will be flexible and move with the body, how much so being determined by how thick the panels are. Some manufacturers like VestGuard use soft-steel sheets in their stab vests in order to keep the price down. We would still consider this a Soft Armour albeit not as flexible as Aramid or Dyneema blends.
What is Hard Armour?
This is actually more of an enhancement than a stand-alone body armour system. Hard Armour will generally refer to plates that are installed on a Soft Armour vest, usually in plate pockets on the front and back. They are normally made from some form of ceramic and are used to upgrade existing armour to be able to protect against rifle fire. Some people wear hard armours instead of soft armours, like discussed above, but this is not recommended for a number of reasons. Hard armour does not have the coverage of Soft Armour and if it does, it will greatly restrict your ability to move around as it is one, solid, inflexible piece. Hard Armour plates are also extremely heavy for their size which weighs the user down can cause discomfort.
What is the difference between Covert and Overt armour?
Covert and Overt are two broad categories that most body armour can be divided into. Overt vests are the ones that most users will be familiar with. They come in a wide range of types including tabard, zip-front, tactical etc. When you hear about police armour or Community Support armour, what it is referring to is the style of the Overt Cover. The style will include colours, badging, special accessories and things added to the armour to make it more suitable for a specific purpose. Covert body armour is specially designed to be worn under the clothing. The cover will not be made from a rough material like Cordura and will instead use polycotton or fine nylon. The straps will also tend to be much thinner to avoid detection and it will not include things like zips, pockets, badges and docks. They most popular colours for covert armour tend to be white or black. You will also notice that covert armour rarely varies in style.
Do I need a body armour vest?
At Interconnective, we work mainly with the security industry and we often hear that a company doesn't need body armour because they don't take contracts where it will be needed. We inevitably hear back from the same companies months later, looking to buy body armour. A sad reality of modern life is that crime is sky-rocketing and it is not contained within traditional hotspots. Westminister and Chelsea are consistently in the Top 5 areas for crime in London and it does not appear this trend is changing. The decision to whether you need to buy body armour is entirely yours. You need to make an assessment based on whether you believe there is a possibility that you may encounter a threat during the course of your work or out in your daily life. We have many clients who wear covert armour when working in dangerous areas as a precaution. Most of them have thankfully never had to use it.
I want to buy body armour, which one is the best?
Like with most professional equipment, there is not a single best body armour vest. A piece of body armour is designed to protect against a specific threat. Each type of armour will have its own strengths and its own weaknesses. There is always a trade-off between protection, weight and manoeuvrability. Each type of armour will have its own benefits and drawbacks. It is important to know what qualities are most important to you.
How do I choose the best body armour for me?
Before you buy body amour, you must first ask, what are you trying to protect against? If you are worried about knife, spike or needle attacks, you can go for a stab vest. If you are looking at anything to do with guns, you will need a Ballistic Vest. It is important to note that Ballistic Vests will often also include protection from knives. The way to judge which armour will work is through certification. The main certifications you will find in the body armour UK market are the Home Office Standards and to a lesser extent, the US NIJ (National Institute of Justice Standard). Ensuring that the armour you are buying has been properly tested is essential to judging its protective capabilities.
How do I choose the right size for a body armour vest?
It is extremely important that you make sure that you choose the right size when buying a vest. Ill-fitting armour can reduce its effectiveness. While most decent armour has adjustable straps on the shoulders and sides, this can only help you within the correct range. All manufacturers worth their salt will have a size chart for you to follow. On our website, you can find this in the downloads section. Consult it carefully and make sure you follow the instructions. This is particularly important if you ask for a custom vest as these you may not be able to return if it fits poorly.
What materials are used in body armour?
Depending if it is for stab or ballistic protection, there are a number of materials used. For ballistic protection, Aramid Fibre is by far the most commonly used material. There is more variation in stab vests. Arabid Fibre is used far less frequently due to cost with materials such as Dyneema, Nylon, Steel Cord and other high-tensile materials. Soft-Steel is a lower cost material that some companies use which unlike steel plates, bend with the body. They are still less flexible that fibre/material based armours. Recently, Carbon Fibre has been gaining in popularity. It is more of an armour shell than traditional stab vests but has impressive blunt force trauma resistance.
What accessories are available for body armour?
There are a wide range of extras that you can have attached when you buy body armour vests. Plate pockets can be attached at the front and back of the vest for ceramic hard armour inserts. Velcro patches on the front and back of the armour for badges are common and sometimes even come as standard. Equipment docks like the system can be sewn on. Even if you choose a non-high vis cover for your armour, many companies can sew on reflective strips to help you avoid accidents in low-light conditions.
