NIJ III++ level protection
The NIJ 101.06 standard level III is tested with six hits from a 7.62 NATO rifle. In short, it offers protection from common non-AP rifle rounds.
- 6 hits 7.62x51 NATO, M80 (NIJ level 3 0101.06)
- 6 hits 7.62x39 MSC
- 6 hits 5.56x45 SS109/M855
The suffix ++ is used by many manufacturers to market plates that offer more protection than just the standard it exceeds.
The ballistic plate also stops 5.56x45 mm (M855 / SS109) which cannot penetrate ceramic plates, making them better than Steel and 100% PE Ballistic plates, which can be penetrated by M855/SS109.

Made by Protection Group Danmark
The Danish PGD is a fairly recent name in ballistic protection but one we believe will be around for a long time. PGD makes vests and plates as well as helmets for demanding use. The strong point of PGD is their transparency about testing methods and certificates, this is something we appreciate a lot. Protective equipment is something you must be able to trust.
