Trauma Plate

English to Portuguese Tech/Engineering Military / Defense
This professional Trauma Plate is made out of a special material that is both light and strong.

Even though your vest stops the bullet, the Trauma Plate enhances the performance of your ballistic vest by dispersing the energy of an impact over a larger area, reducing blunt trauma injuries. Vests are NIJ certified without a Trauma Plate but we strongly recommend to use one. It's also very useful to shot back.

chapa de blindagem

Sugestao. Sei que não é exatamente a tradução, mas.....

Veja o artigo da Wikipedia, explicando com maiores detalhes.

Ceramic plates (also known as trauma plates) are commonly used as inserts in soft body armor. Most ceramic plates used in the body armor industry can protect against a NIJ level III and IV with a IIIA vest supporting. Ceramic plates are a form of composite armor. Insert plates may also be manufactured from steel or PE.

These plates are often worn by personnel needing protection from rifle fire. In Iraq, the soft armor vest with the ceramic plate helps protect troops from small arms fire up to and including 7.62×63 mm steel rifle bullets.
