What Are Safeguard Clothing And How Are They Made?

By Frank Patterson


We commonly refer to them as bullet proof attire. They are mostly used by officers of the law when they find themselves in a cross fire or any other dangerous situation.We all know what safeguard clothing is. However, civilians are also allowed to have them. This is because you are never totally assured of your safety because of the existence of police officers.

If you have always wondered how bullet proof vests are made, the article explains a little bit about what happens on the basis of manufacture and material used to produce. The most important materials are those that make it impenetrable even by bullets. The most commonly used materials are Kevlar and Dyneema. Manufactures are able to form light but strong fiber from these material but it is of course after they undergo a process to soften them up to suit the quality required.

The yarn is a strong and continuous fiber that is used in forming material. The fiber is then woven together into cords and into yarns. These are usually in different usually in many different colors. The main colors are jungle green, black, navy blue and even white. The clients can choose the color of their liking, and for police and other units, they choose those that go with their uniform.

They then proceed to weave the cord and the yarn together in order be able to come up with a uniform fabric. This fabric appears to be a large piece of material. It actually appears like the fabric that is used by tailors in making clothes. These materials are then taken to the factory to begin the process of making the vests after the overall checking their qualities.

Even though it looks good enough for a tailor to use, it is not to be cut with scissors. In these factories there are machines made especially for the purpose of creating cutting up this material. The front and the back of the vest may be of different sizes but the machines are designed to be able to cut the appropriate sizes and for different sizes of the vest.

The cut-up materials are then assembled together and placed on top of each other. Not all vests are of the same thickness. The number of pieces on each vest determines how thick the vest is going to be. The thickness also depends on the client. For a civilian, it will not be as thick as that of a soldier as there are so many threats on the battle field.

The next step is to put the material under covers. The covers help to prevent them being affected by factors such as humidity and water. The cover is like an umbrella that protects you from the sun or the rain. The cover actually highly contributes to giving the best its bullet proof characteristics.

The flying cover carrier has pockets in which ballistic panels are introduced. The pockets in each carrier can actually be increased in order to carry more ballistics. The pockets also help to hold in place the ballistics on the body of the person wearing it. This is the simplest way bullet proof vest making can be explained.
