Armoxs 500 Quenched and Tempered Bulletproof Steel Plate

A 500 class ballistic plate supplied cut to panel size for vehicle and building armoring

Armoxs 500 bulletproof steel plate is a quenched and tempered ballistic plate in the 500 hardness class, also sold as armor steel sheet or ballistic steel plate. Vehicle armoring workshops and security fabricators specify it when a drawing calls out a 500 class plate and the buyer needs that call-out filled from stock rather than from a long import route. Fixing holes and cut to size work are done on a laser machine or a water jet before shipment, which removes the problem of a hardened panel that a general fabrication shop cannot drill. Thickness is supplied from 2mm to 100mm against customized panel sizes.

Why It Is Specified

Key Benefits of Armoxs 500 Bulletproof Steel Plate

Fills a 500 Class Call-Out From Stock

Drawings that name a 500 class ballistic plate can be quoted directly against this item. Buyers stop waiting on a single import source to reopen.

Stated Strength of 1250 MPa Yield and 1600 MPa Tensile

Yield strength is stated at 1250 MPa and tensile strength at 1600 MPa. That property set is described as giving greater multi hit capacity than other steel.

Hardness in the 500-600 HB Band

Ballistic steel is quoted at 500-600 HB where structural steel may reach only half of that. That difference is why the panel section can stay thin enough to fit inside a door or body panel.

Cutting Problem Handled Before Delivery

As ballistic capability rises the ease of folding welding and cutting falls. All fixing holes and profiles are cut here on laser or water jet so the panel arrives ready to install.

Quoted Against Published Protection Levels

The plate is offered against FB4+ FB5 FB6 FB7 NIJ IIIA NIJ III NIJ IV STANAG 4569 Level 1 and Level 2 and GA-3 to GA-6. Your order references the same level as the project specification.

Panel Sizes Rather Than Full Plates

Size is customized against your drawing. A vehicle kit can be ordered as a set of numbered panels instead of plates you have to nest and cut.

Problems It Solves

What This Material Removes From Your Process

A Single Source for a 500 Class Plate

Projects written around one branded 500 class plate stall when that source is slow or unavailable. An equivalent 500 class quenched and tempered plate keeps the fabrication schedule moving.

Hardened Panels That Resist Shop Tooling

Drilling and shearing a plate in the 500-600 HB band destroys ordinary tooling. Holes and profiles are cut on laser or water jet here so no hard machining lands on your shop floor.

Thickness Chosen Without Reference to the Level

Ballistic performance at a given thickness follows hardness, so thickness cannot be picked in isolation. Quoting against the named protection level ties the two decisions together.

Offcuts From Nesting Vehicle Kits

Cutting a vehicle kit from full plates leaves scrap you pay for and store. Cut to size panel supply against your drawing removes that waste from the order.

Application Scenarios

Where It Is Used

Armored Cars and Personnel Carriers

Body panels floors and door skins on armored personnel carriers combat vehicles and money transport vehicles.

Armor Doors and Ballistic Windows

Door leaves wall linings and ballistic window frames in buildings built to a protection specification.

Bank Counters and Confidential Safes

Counter fronts and safe bodies where a thin hard panel has to fit inside existing cabinet work.

Marine Craft and Helicopters

Submarines landing craft anti-smuggling boats and helicopters fitted with protection panels in the structure.

Armor Plate Shields and Vests

Armor plate armor shields ballistic helmets and vest plates cut from thin gauge material.

Comparison

Armoxs 500 Bulletproof Steel Plate Against the Alternatives

Structural steel plateStructural steel hardness may be only half of the 500-600 HB band quoted here so it cannot be substituted at the same thickness.
Higher hardness ballistic plateMoving up in hardness improves performance at the same thickness but costs more and folds welds and cuts less easily.
Imported branded 500 class plateThe 500 class quenched and tempered specification is filled from stock with panels profiled before shipment instead of plate delivered for you to cut.
Layered mild steel panelsA single quenched and tempered panel avoids the weight and fixing complexity of building up protection from mild steel layers.
Use Guide

Specifying Handling and Welding Notes

  • Issue the panel drawing with hole centers so profiling is completed before dispatch
  • Plan fixings as bolted connections and keep welding away from the protected face where possible
  • Select thickness and protection level together rather than one after the other
  • Expect reduced folding welding and cutting ease compared with structural plate
  • Number the panels on the drawing so the kit can be marked and checked on arrival
  • Ask for the test report with the shipment for the project record
Questions Buyers Ask

Armoxs 500 Bulletproof Steel Plate FAQ

What hardness is Armoxs 500 plate supplied at?

The ballistic steel is quoted at 500-600 HB. Structural steel may reach only half of that, which is why structural plate is not a substitute at the same thickness.

What thickness can you supply?

Plate is supplied from 2mm to 100mm and armor steel sheet from 2.3mm to 100mm, with size customized to your panel drawing.

Which protection levels does it cover?

It is quoted against FB4+, FB5, FB6, FB7, NIJ IIIA, NIJ III, NIJ IV, STANAG 4569 Level 1 and Level 2, and GA-3 to GA-6. Send the level in your specification and we will confirm thickness.

Can the plate be welded and folded?

Ease of folding, welding and cutting decreases as ballistic capability increases. Hole cutting and sizing are therefore done here on a laser machine or a water jet.

What strength values are stated?

The stated yield strength is 1250 MPa and the stated tensile strength is 1600 MPa.

Will you cut a full vehicle panel set?

Yes. Send the drawing and the panels are profiled and hole cut on laser or water jet, then marked to the drawing numbers before packing.

Is a test report included?

Yes. A test report is issued for the Armoxs 500 bulletproof steel plate supplied with the order.
