U-WIN BASE Ballistic Side Cummerbund Inserts, UHMWPE, Size 1
The U-WIN BASE Size 1 ballistic insert set is designed for installation into the side cummerbunds of a plate carrier, expanding the wearer’s overall protective coverage. By reinforcing the side sections of the carrier, the inserts provide additional protection for vulnerable areas of the torso that may remain less protected during tactical, operational, or field use.
The shape and dimensions of the inserts are specifically tailored for Size 1 U-WIN BASE cummerbunds, ensuring a precise fit, secure positioning, and consistent comfort during prolonged movement and active operations.
The protective core is made from Chinese-manufactured Ultra-High-Molecular-Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE), a modern ballistic material known for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio, durability, and resistance to mechanical stress. Each insert contains 55 layers of ballistic fabric designed to absorb and disperse impact energy efficiently.
To protect the ballistic material from moisture, dust, and environmental exposure, each insert is sealed inside a waterproof protective cover. This construction helps maintain consistent performance and durability even during prolonged use in demanding weather and field conditions.
Ballistic Protection
The total protective coverage of the set is 9 dm². According to testing results, the inserts provide performance equivalent to Protection Class 2 under DSTU 8782:2018 penetration-resistance requirements.
The inserts are capable of stopping:
- 5.9 g Makarov pistol rounds;
- 8 g Luger pistol rounds;
- 5.5 g TT 7.62×25 mm rounds;
when fired from a distance of 5 meters.
Due to the absence of impact-absorbing padding, the backface deformation value may exceed 25 mm.
Fragmentation Resistance
The inserts have also been tested in accordance with the NATO STANAG 2920 standard. A confirmed V50 rating of 723 m/s demonstrates effective protection against high-velocity fragments and secondary projectile threats.
Ergonomics and Mobility
Each insert measures 15 × 30 cm, providing effective side-torso coverage without significantly increasing the bulk of the plate carrier. With a total set weight of only 532 g, the additional protection has minimal impact on mobility, endurance, and overall wearing comfort.
