K12® - Armor Plate  [Armor Material]

Armor materials are designed to resist penetration by bullets and other ballistic projectiles. The metallurgical structure of these products is designed to break or flatten and capture the projectile. While useful in stationary situations, the much greater efficiency of these materials compared to ordinary steels, etc., makes them especially useful in mobile equipment and other situations in which size and weight are at a premium. Allegheny Ludlum K12® Dual Hardness Armor Plate material has an extensive history of successful use in armored cars and similar equipment.
