WHY CARBON / ARAMID?

Carbon fibre is extremely strong and light – Aramid is fabric-like and has tremendous resistance to puncture and tearing, which is why it’s used for ballistic vests etc. Carbon & Aramid together produce an awsome combination of strength and flexibility providing an anti-penetration barrier in a very thin cross-section. An extra layer of Aramid is placed underneath the composite (in the KC series), which is then mounted over the absorbant rubber foam carrier. This provides unbeatable protection in a section just over &#189″ thick!
