CoorsTek Ceramic Body Armor Components Cerashield™

NEXT-GENERATION CERAMIC TORSO PLATES

For over three decades, CoorsTek has worked with top armor integrators to develop the next-generation of advanced ceramic body armor components.

Superior Protection Using Next-Generation Ceramic Torso Plates

CoorsTek offers lightweight, superior-quality torso plates in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, thicknesses, and materials including:

• CeraShield™ High-Density Aluminum Oxides
• Traditional monolithic plate material
• Standard sizes and shapes including all SAPI sizes.
• Custom thicknesses available from 1 mm and up
• CeraShield™ Silicon Carbides
• Superior hardness for advanced threats
• Lower weight with higher performance benefits
• CeraShield™ Boron Carbides
• Exceedingly hard for extreme energy dissipation
• Lowest density for ultra-lightweight designs

We operate multiple high-capacity, secure facilities with the ability to produce a high-volume of components while maintaining excellent quality standards.

Representative examples of our standard plates are illustrated above. Most sizes and shapes use our CeraShield™ materials. Custom shapes, sizes, and thicknesses are readily manufactured to customer specification.

BORON CARBIDE ARMOR

CoorsTek offers lightweight, superior-quality torso plates in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and thicknesses. Our CeraShield™ reaction-bonded boron carbide has low density for ultra-lightweight designs.
Representative examples include SAPI shape, double-curve, triple-curve, multi-curve, and side plates. Standard shapes and sizes are readily offered. Custom shapes, sizes, and thicknesses are readily manufactured to customer specification.

CoorsTek provides some of the lightest armor components by developing specialty materials and processes for superior ballistic performance with minimal weight. Our lightweight technical ceramic tiles employ tight-tolerance manufacturing standards, high-purity formulations, and controlled microstructures to ensure durable performance, and consistently reliable defense to unexpected threats.

Performance & Assembly Advantages

CoorsTek CeraShield™ ceramics offer many advantages over conventional materials. Our specially formulated ceramic armor materials provide:

• Low weight
• High hardness
• Controlled, uniform microstructures
• Compatibility for use in finished armor systems with proven ballistic performance for national and international design standards

CoorsTek offers advanced ceramic tiles of a large range of shapes and sizes in addition to customized assemblies. Our engineers utilize modular assemblies to maximize protection while allowing for quick replacement and minimal weight.

CoorsTek supplies custom ceramic armor components for use in vehicle protection systems. Our lightweight materials help to increase efficiency while meeting or exceeding the performance of traditional steel-based systems.
