Bulletproof Steel Sheet and Ballistic Armor Plate
Ballistic plate and hard armor inserts for armored vehicles protective structures and body armor carriers
Bulletproof steel sheet is the ballistic branch of the steel plate range and covers both the rolled plate that goes into armored structures and the finished hard panels that go into a carrier. On the plate side it holds Armoxs 500 Bulletproof Steel Plate, Armor 500 550 Steel Plate, NP550 PRO500 Bulletproof Steel Plate, Rolled Homogeneous Armour Steel Plate and the general armor and ballistic steel plate line. On the wearable side it holds bulletproof plate, ballistic plate, body armor plate, armor plate and bulletproof vests, which are rigid panels of ceramic steel or polyethylene inserted into a tactical vest or carrier. Buyers come here because ballistic plate is not a stock item at a general steel trader and because the same project usually needs the structural plate and the personal panels released against one threat specification.

What This Range Is For
Ballistic Plate Not Held by General Steel Traders
Armor grades are a separate purchase from structural plate and most suppliers quote only one of them. Holding the armor plate line alongside the rest of the plate range keeps the protection package on the same order as the structure.
Threat Level Stated Loosely on the Enquiry
Protection levels such as NIJ III and NIJ IV and the choice between ceramic steel and polyethylene decide what can be supplied. Fixing the threat and the level at the enquiry stage stops a panel arriving that was never meant for rifle velocity.
Armor Grades Named Differently by Each Buyer
Armox 500 Armor 500 550 NP550 PRO500 and rolled homogeneous armour all appear on different drawings for a similar duty. Listing them as separate items lets you order against the designation your specification already carries.
Cutting Armor Plate in a General Workshop
Hard armor plate is difficult to cut and drill with ordinary shop equipment. Supplying panels cut to the ordered size moves that work off the fabricator and onto the supplier.
Documentation Missing on a Protection Order
Armored work is inspected and the buyer has to prove what steel went into the panel. A mill test certificate against the ordered grade closes that gap.
Who Buys It
Buyers Who Order From This Range
- Vehicle armoring workshops building riot vehicles money transport vehicles and armored personnel carriers
- Security fitters installing armor doors armor walls ballistic windows and bank counters
- Body armor and carrier manufacturers sourcing hard panels for tactical vests
- Defense and law enforcement procurement teams buying against a stated protection level
- Safe and strongroom builders specifying plate for confidential safes and secure enclosures
- Shipyards and specialist builders fitting protection to combat vehicles landing craft and submarines
Core Advantages
Why Source This Range From Tianyu Metal
Plate and Finished Panels From One Range
Rolled armor plate for structures and hard inserts for carriers sit in the same category so a project team does not split the protection package across two industries.
Several Armor Designations Held Together
Armoxs 500 Armor 500 550 NP550 PRO500 and rolled homogeneous armour are listed individually so you can order the designation written on your specification.
Panels Released to Your Cut Size
Plate is supplied cut to the ordered dimensions so an armor door blank or a wall panel arrives at size instead of being cut on a saw that is not built for it.
Material Choice Matched to the Threat
Hard armor panels are made as ceramic steel or polyethylene and the choice follows the threat from pistol up to high velocity rifle rather than being fixed in advance.
Mill Test Certificate for the Armor Grade
The ordered grade is documented on a mill test certificate so the protection order can be signed off by the inspector who asked for it.
Export Packing for Protective Equipment
Material ships to Southeast Asia South America and Africa with packing arranged for the panel sizes on the order.
Application Scenarios
Where This Range Ends Up
Armored Vehicle Body and Floor Plate
Riot vehicles money transport vehicles armored personnel carriers and combat vehicles where the hull and floor take ballistic plate.
Armor Doors Walls and Ballistic Windows
Fixed protection in buildings including armor doors armor walls ballistic window frames and bank counters.
Body Armor Carriers and Tactical Vests
Rigid front back and side panels inserted into a carrier to stop bullets and shrapnel at the stated protection level.
Safes and Secure Storage
Confidential safes and secure cabinets where the plate has to resist attack as well as ballistic threat.
Shields Helmets and Personal Equipment
Armor shields armor vests and ballistic helmets built around plate and panel stock from this range.
Marine and Special Vehicle Protection
Landing craft submarines and other special builds where ballistic and explosion proof projects call for armor plate.
Buying Guide
What To State When You Order
State the threat and the protection level you are working to such as NIJ III or NIJ IV before asking for a price
Name the armor designation from your specification whether Armox 500 Armor 500 550 NP550 PRO500 or rolled homogeneous armour
Give thickness first then the finished panel width and length because armor plate is bought as a cut panel not as a full plate
Say whether you need steel ceramic or polyethylene when the item is a hard insert for a carrier
State any hole pattern or edge treatment on the drawing since hard plate is difficult to work after delivery
Confirm the mill test certificate and the packing method for the panel sizes on your order

Bulletproof Steel Sheet FAQ
What is the difference between armor plate and a bulletproof vest?
Armor plate is a rigid panel often ceramic steel or polyethylene that is inserted into a tactical vest or carrier. A bulletproof vest is the complete garment and is mainly a cover plus a bulletproof layer where the cover is often polyester or nylon.
What protection levels do these panels work to?
Hard armor panels are specified against levels such as NIJ III and NIJ IV. The level and the material choice depend on the threat which runs from pistol up to high velocity rifle so tell us the threat you are defending against.
Which armor steel grades do you supply?
The range includes Armoxs 500 Bulletproof Steel Plate Armor 500 550 Steel Plate NP550 PRO500 Bulletproof Steel Plate Rolled Homogeneous Armour Steel Plate and general armor and ballistic steel plate.
Where is bulletproof steel plate normally used?
It is generally used in ballistic and explosion proof projects such as armor doors armor walls ballistic windows ballistic helmets armor plates armor vests armor shields bank counters confidential safes riot vehicles money transport vehicles armored personnel carriers combat vehicles submarines and landing craft.
What is inside a bulletproof layer?
The bulletproof layer is built from materials such as metal ceramic sheets including boron carbide silicon carbide and aluminum oxide together with Kevlar and ultra high molecular weight fibers.
Can you cut armor plate to our panel drawing?
Yes. Plate is released at the ordered size so you receive panels rather than full plates. Send the panel drawing with thickness and any hole pattern and Request A Quote against it.
