Frequently Asked Questions About the 3612LV Series Armor

What does “ICW” mean?
“ICW” stands for In Conjunction With. This means the 3612LV plates are designed to work in conjunction with certified Level IIIA soft armor, which must be worn underneath for full Level III+ ballistic protection.

How does the 3612LV differ from the 3612 and 3612C Series?
The 3612LV Series offers the thinnest and lightest profile in the 3612 lineup. Unlike the 3612 and 3612C standalone plates, the LV is designed for ICW use, delivering rifle protection with reduced bulk and improved mobility.

Who is this armor best suited for?
The 3612LV is ideal for law enforcement, security professionals, and prepared civilians who prioritize agility and concealment without compromising rifle-rated protection.

Will these plates fit in standard plate carriers?
Yes. The 3612LV Series is compatible with most standard 10x12" and SAPI-sized plate carriers. Check your carrier’s specifications for the best fit.

How should I maintain my armor plates?
Avoid direct sunlight, moisture, or impact when not in use. Clean with a damp cloth and store in a cool, dry location. Do not submerge or expose to chemicals.
