Special Threats Test Results on Select Ballistic Models
All PACA ballistic models are pre-tested to comply with NIJ Standards for Levels IIA – IV and are required to
meet even higher internal requirements for V0 & V50 Testing and Full-Spectrum Projectile Rating for Special
Threats. Since our baseline ballistic limits are set far beyond NIJ requirements, our test results consistently
show a higher level of performance.
Level IIIA
Although vest models
can only be NIJ Certified
to the specific threats
listed in the NIJ Standard,
PACA tests some of their
models against the most
popular “special threats”
bullets. All special threats
testing are performed
at independent test labs
including, H.P. White,
Chesapeake Testing
or United States Test
Laboratories, all of which
are NIJ certified testing
facilities. Although there
is no claim of special
threats NIJ Certification,
these vests models
are tested to the exact
testing conditions and
protocol required for
actual certification. By
monitoring confiscated
weapons, these additional
special threat tests can
help an agency determine
if a particular model meets
the requirements for
their specific geographic
location and actual street
threat.

SPECIAL THREATS TESTING
The NIJ has set forth specific bullets and test velocities in the NIJ 0101.06 Standard. Currently NIJ does not
provide for testing and Certification to bullets outside of those listed in the standard. The continuing evolution
of bullet technology has resulted in a number of bullets that are more difficult to defeat than those listed in the
NIJ Standard. Some of these bullets have come to be known as “special threats.”

A ballistic panel is shot with a series of

P ACA’s protocol requires V50 to be
an average of 200 ft/s above NIJ referenced
velocities or standard factory rounds.

THORSHIELD
tm
While body armor saves lives and less-lethal
devices such as electric stun guns prevent some
fatal encounters, officers remain exposed if
their body armor does not include ThorShield™.
ThorShield™ is a highly conductive, specialized
layer of fabric that is sewn to the inside of a
carrier which ensures the electric current
discharged from an electroshock weapon flows
through the lining rather than the body.
Durable, lightweight and exceptionally flexible,
ThorShield™ is exclusively available in PACA body
armor products.

PROTECTION
Stay cool, dry and more comfortable with
our new Perform-X concealable vest. The
carrier’s inner-lining wicks away moisture
and provides a cool, comfortable fit. When
combined with Dri-Lex® inner carrier lining,
the Perform-X is one of the most comfortable concealable vests available today.
FEATURES
FEMALE
Perform-X concealable carriers feature
an innovative technology called Dri-Lex®
Diffusion, an active moisture management
system. Specially engineered to move
moisture away from the skin through a
4-step process, Dri-Lex® is used within the
carrier’s inner lining to help the wearer
stay dry and comfortable. Unlike other
commercially available moisture wicking
materials, Dri-Lex ® will not wash away
since the technology is bound to the fabric
surface and does not migrate into the
environment.

Developed with leading-edge Kevlar® Correctional technology, our concealable body armor is specifically designed to help
protect corrections officers against spikes, shanks and other potentially lethal hand-made weapons typically found in
corrections facilities. In response to the ever-volatile conditions and unique threats Corrections professionals
face, our body armor systems provide the superior puncture and slash resistant protection corrections
officers need. Tested and certified by NIJ for superior stab resistance, our body armor systems
provide exceptional torso, bicep, neck and groin protection against ice picks and other
sharp edged, hand-made, pointed weapons. PACA offers high performance stab
packages in (Spike Levels 1, 2, or 3) with optional Edged Weapon Level
3 protection, as well as, optional ballistic protection in select
body armor systems.

Resistance
The NIJ rates body armor on resistance
to hand-delivered stab threats – the
NIJ 0115.00 Standard. Maximum penetration of 0.28” / 7mm is allowed as
serious injury is extremely unlikely with
such a shallow wound. Also an “Overtest” is applied, to push the breaking
point of the armor, where 0.79” / 20mm
of penetration is allowed. Ice-pick or
improvised “Spike” weapons testing is
regularly conducted by PACA through its
independent laboratories.

A
ccording to research conducted
by The Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI), the risk of
fatal injuries for officers who do not
routinely wear body armor is 14 times
greater than for those who do. As a
company dedicated to serving the law
enforcement and corrections community,
a startling statistic such as this is
the driving force behind our primary
commitment, to provide the safest, most
comfortable body armor in the world.
To date, the lives of over 3,000 law
enforcement officers have been saved by
the use of bullet-resistant body armor.
Officers trust PACA’s line of concealable
and corrections body armor because they
know they don’t have to compromise
comfort for performance. As street
threats increase in number and capacity,
our experts in the Point Blank Enterprises’
Technology and Testing Center are
continuously testing and evaluating new
advancements in ballistic technology
to produce vests which not only offer
superior protection but optimum comfort
for daily wear. PACA is proud to stand
at the forefront of this endeavor and
will work diligently to communicate the
importance of body armor, so that officers
will always stay protected.
PACA’s stringent manufacturing standards are one
of the highest in the industry. Our body armor
systems are specially designed to defeat specific
threats and to suit personal needs for comfort
and fit. All of our ballistic, spike and multithreat models are tested by National Institute of
Justice (NIJ) approved independent laboratories and
comply with NIJ Certification Standards.
Remember, body armor is designed to be worn. F.B.I.
statistics indicate that almost half of the officers
slain each year might have survived had they been
wearing lightweight, concealable, protective soft
body armor. Your body armor cannot protect you
against every threat you face. Some specially
designed Armor Piercing and Ultra-High-Velocity
handgun ammunition may or may not be defeated
by your soft body armor. For protection against
rifle or long gun ammunition, hard armor plates
must be worn in front of your soft armor panels.
Always refer to the label on your ballistic panel to
determine the protection level of your soft armor
vest. There should be no expectation of bullet
resistance in areas not covered by the ballistic
element. Remember, your vest is not bullet proof,
but bullet resistant. However, it can help reduce
the risk of fatal injury only if you wear it.
