Priced per panel
(Steel Plates and Carrier are Sold Separately)

Spall Catcher™ 
Engineered for enhanced safety, the Spall Catcher is designed to work in tandem with steel armor plates to capture and contain bullet fragments or spall upon impact.

The Spall Catcher delivers advanced protection from secondary projectiles that can result when a bullet strikes steel. 

Spall Catcher consists of DuPont™ CoreMatrix™, a high-performance ballistic material engineered to deliver exceptional resistance against fragmentation threats and to minimize backface trauma. This unique monolithic fabric is created using advanced needle-felting processes, which incorporate Z-directional fibers throughout the material, resulting in an exceptionally robust structure. 

Easy to integrate, simply place the Spall Catcher in front of your steel plate inside the carrier. Lightweight, flexible, and low-profile, it provides an added layer of confidence without compromising mobility. For additional versatility, it can also function as a trauma pad.

It may also be used as a trauma pad.

  • While steel armor plates are highly effective at stopping incoming rounds, they introduce a critical risk often overlooked: spall. When a bullet impacts a steel plate, fragments from the bullet’s jacket or core can break off and deflect as secondary projectiles.
  • Even though the plate stops the round, these fragments can be redirected toward vulnerable areas of the wearer, such as the face, neck, or arms—potentially causing severe injuries.
  • The Spall Catcher™ is specifically engineered to mitigate this hazard. Capturing and containing spall before it leaves the surface of the plate provides an additional layer of protection that helps prevent life-altering wounds.
  • For anyone relying on steel armor in demanding environments, the Spall Catcher™ is not just an accessory—it’s an essential safeguard.

Insert the OmniPROTEX® Spall Catcher™ panel in front of your steel plate inside your carrier for enhanced safety.
