Frequently Asked Questions

What threats does the Hesco 3810 stop?

The 3810 is NIJ certified Level III with additional Level III+ coverage. It stops 7.62x39 MSC, 5.56x45 M855, and other rifle threats specified in the NIJ standard.

Do I need a backing plate with the 3810?

No. The 3810 is a stand-alone plate that provides full protection without requiring additional backing materials.

What's the difference between shooter cut and SAPI cut?

Shooter cut has more aggressive side cuts that allow better weapon manipulation and shoulder mobility. SAPI cut provides more coverage area but can restrict movement.

How does the multi-curve design improve comfort?

Multi-curve plates bend in two directions to match your torso shape. This distributes weight more evenly and reduces pressure points during extended wear.

What maintenance does the polyurethane coating require?

The water-resistant coating can be cleaned with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasives that could damage the protective finish.
