Custom Sizing & Applications:

Not all armor needs fit standard 10"x12" dimensions. Whether you need plates for a specialized carrier, unique body dimensions, or a specific application that requires non-standard sizing, GTS can custom-manufacture ceramic armor plates to your exact specifications. This custom capability ensures you get proper fit and coverage regardless of your unique requirements.

Custom sizing is particularly valuable for specialized carriers like Crye Precision systems, international armor platforms, or custom-built carriers that don't conform to standard SAPI dimensions. It's also essential for individuals whose body dimensions fall outside the standard sizing ranges, ensuring proper coverage of vital organs without gaps or excessive overlap.

Mosaic Ceramic Performance:

The mosaic ceramic configuration is the best performing ceramic armor design for multi-hit scenarios. When a projectile impacts the plate, the damage is contained within the affected ceramic tile and immediately surrounding area, while the rest of the plate maintains its full protective capability. This allows the armor to withstand multiple impacts in different locations without catastrophic failure.

The 99%+ pure alumina ceramic provides superior hardness and fracture resistance compared to lower-purity alternatives used by many competitors. The crack arresting layers made from aramid and carbon fiber materials help control ceramic fragmentation during impacts, reducing ceramic dust and maintaining structural integrity. The UHMWPE backing plate provides additional strength and helps manage backface deformation to protect against blunt force trauma.

All components are bonded using proprietary ARMORFILM™ adhesives that are 100% sourced and manufactured in the USA, ensuring consistent bonding performance and long-term durability.

Custom Ordering Process:

To order custom-sized plates, you'll need to provide the exact dimensions required for your application. This typically includes length, width, and any specific cut requirements (such as corner angles or edge profiles). If you're fitting a specific carrier, providing the carrier model and size helps ensure proper fit.

GTS works with you to confirm the specifications before manufacturing begins. Because these plates are custom-built to your specifications, lead times may vary based on production schedule and the complexity of your requirements. Custom plates are built to order and cannot be returned due to sizing issues, so it's critical to verify dimensions before ordering.

Important Notes:

  • These ceramic armor plates provide standalone protection at their respective RF2 or RF3 levels
  • Plates are custom-built to order with lead times that may vary based on production schedule
  • Due to the custom nature of these plates, sizing must be verified before ordering - no returns for sizing issues
  • Variations in sizes are acceptable and expected in custom work
  • Contact GTS with your specific sizing requirements before ordering
