The armor carriers a 5-year shelf life, and the model designation of 2019 will help you identify which model you have, and when you should replace your backpack.
The Trauma Pad Option:
Soft body armor is designed to 'catch' the bullet, spreading its energy over an increasingly larger portion of the ballistic vest as the projectile tries to pass through. But the vests (and user) still absorb the bullet's kinetic energy, which can injure the user via bluntforce trauma. Even with a hard armor plate, there will be transmitted impact energy.
AR500 ArmorA(R) Trauma Pads are designed to decrease the blunt force energy felt upon impact when worn behind body armor. Our trauma pads feature non-Newtonian layers which instantly harden upon impact, creating a larger rigid surface area decreasing energy transfer and increasing absorption throughout the trauma pad.
When you choose to add a trauma pad, we will hand sew the trauma pad properly in place within The Phoenix Armored Backpack, no work installation is required.
