U-WIN BASE Plate Carrier is a lightweight and durable base platform designed for building a customized personal protection system. It is engineered for professional use in tactical and combat environments, combining minimal weight, high strength, and well-balanced functionality.
The carrier is compatible with standard 250×300 mm armor plates (up to 25 mm thick) as well as “Temp” plates 250×312 mm (up to 35 mm thick), making it a versatile solution for most commonly used ballistic plates.
Key Features
-
Comfort & Ventilation
The set includes two solid shock-absorbing pads with ventilation holes:
• 15 mm — for standard plates
• 8 mm — for “Temp” plates
These pads provide impact absorption, comfort, and efficient airflow during prolonged wear.
-
Ergonomic Design
V-shaped shoulder strap layout keeps the shoulder area clear and allows proper weapon shouldering.
-
Quick-Release System
Shoulder straps are equipped with ROC 2M quick-release buckles, while the cummerbund uses SPIDER 2M quick releases with insulated pull tabs, easy to operate even in low-light conditions.
-
Modular Shoulder Pads
Removable padded shoulder covers with shock-absorbing material ensure comfortable fit. They feature a MOLLE interface and dedicated slots for attaching shoulder protection modules. Can be replaced with ballistic shoulder pads if required.
-
Wide Adjustment Range
Shoulder straps are adjustable for different body heights. The cummerbund is adjustable via shock-cord lacing at the rear panel, allowing unrestricted movement and breathing.
-
Ballistic Compatibility
Size 1 cummerbund supports 150×300 mm ballistic inserts and can be equipped with U-WIN Protect ballistic packages.

Secure Plate Retention
Each plate is secured with internal Velcro retention straps and closed with external 50 mm wide Velcro flaps.

Emergency Drag Handle
Reinforced drag handle with Velcro fixation is designed for casualty evacuation under fire.

Full MOLLE Compatibility
