HIGH-LEVEL THREAT PROTECTION FOR EVERY DEFENSE SYSTEM

BODY ARMOR

Ceramic armor can be manufactured with a high-level of design flexibility, allowing for complex geometries such as double curved torso plates, making it an ideal material for body armor.

VEHICLE ARMOR

The high-hardness and lightweight of ceramic armor dissipates the kinetic energy of high-velocity projectiles, providing advanced protection without restricting vehicle mobility.

AIRCRAFT ARMOR

Ceramic armor provides multi-hit ballistic protection at an extremely lightweight making it ideal for aerospace armor applications where minimizing aircraft weight is crucial.

ADVANTAGES OF

MAX PROTECTION + MINIMUM WEIGHT

BOROSHOCK™ 100% BORON CARBIDE CERAMIC ARMOR

BoroShock™ is SINTX’s ceramic armor material made from 100% boron carbide (B₄C). Boron carbide is one of the hardest materials known, rated third to diamond and offers the best combination of advanced ballistic protection and extreme lightweight, making it ideal for aircraft armor.

BoroShock™ can also also be formed into double curved torso plates, making it especially suitable for body armor. Due to it’s lightweight, it offers advanced protection from high-level ballistic threats without restricting performance or Mobility.

HIGH PERFORMANCE + COST EFFECTIVE

DURASHOCK™ CERAMIC ARMOR HYBRID

DuraShock™ is SINTX’s ceramic hybrid armor material made from 40% Boron Carbide and 60% Silicon Carbide. This ceramic armor hybrid combines the weight savings of boron carbide with the cost-effective advantages of silicon carbide.

DuraShock™ provides a suitable armor solution for ground vehicle and body armor applications where multi-hit performance against ballistic threats is required and where cost is an important factor.

A cost-effective alternative to pure boron carbide
Boron carbide/silicon carbide ceramic hybrid
Consistently outperforms similar ceramic armor hybrids
Threat protection up to level IV and beyond
