⚔️ Ajax IIIA Stab Side Plates – Compact Defense Where You Need It Most
The Ajax IIIA Stab Side Plates undeniably bring full-spectrum protection to your loadout. Engineered from laminated UHMWPE polyethylene, these plates defend against both ballistic and edged weapon threats in a compact, easy-to-wear format. Designed to slot into your carrier’s cummerbund, Ajax side plates safeguard your flanks without adding unnecessary bulk.

🛡️ Ballistic + Stab Protection
Tested to NIJ Level IIIA standards, Ajax side plates stop multiple hits from .44 Magnum rounds at up to 1464 fps as well as other common pistol calibers. Beyond firearms, they’re also stab resistant, making them invaluable for close-quarters encounters where edged threats are just as likely as gunfire.

Armor only works if you actually wear it, and Ajax side plates are undeniably designed with that principle in mind. At under half a pound each, they’re among the lightest side plates available. The single-curve ergonomic design ensures a stable, comfortable fit, allowing you to move freely while also staying protected.
