Product Overview
Lightweight UHMWPE UD Fabric (50–130gsm) is a unidirectional composite material made from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fibers arranged in a 0°/90° cross-ply structure.
It is engineered for applications requiring minimal weight and maximum flexibility, while maintaining reliable ballistic performance in soft armor and helmet systems.

Why Choose Lightweight UHMWPE UD Fabric?
Compared with standard 160–300gsm UD materials, the 50–130gsm series offers:
Lower overall system weight
Improved wearer comfort
Better flexibility for curved structures (helmets/body armor)
Easier integration into composite lamination systems
It is especially suitable for helmet manufacturers and concealed armor producers.
Ballistic Performance Reference
Lightweight UD fabric can be configured for:
NIJ IIIA 9mm protection systems
NIJ IIIA .44 Magnum systems
Multi-layer composite armor designs
⚠️ Final ballistic performance depends on full laminate system including resin, film, structure and test conditions.
