Ceralite Advanced Ceramics For Lightweight Armor

Armor USA has  one  of the  most  advanced  manufacturing  facilities  for  silicon  carbide  (SiC)and boron  carbide(B4C)ceramics.We  are  also  developing  transparent  ceramics  based   on  YAG   and Spinel AIMgO4.

Ceralite“-SiCand Ceralite-B4C is the most advanced material in lightweight body armor and add-on armor,saving  30-50%weight  to  ballistic  steel  in  Stanag  4569  Level  II-IV.We  have  capacity  of manufacturing  80 tons  of SiC,sintered or reaction bonded,and  10  tons  of B4C  on monthly basis, with standard or tailored shapes and sizes,flat,single or multi curved.We can green machining holes and irregular shape per customer needs.

CeraliteT“-YAG transparent ceramics can reduce 40-60%in weight comparing to GCP ballistic glass, with improved light transmission,NVG capabilities,and increased multi-shot capability.
