Your face is one of the most important parts of your body to protect in a combat situation, so having face armor to protect yourself is a must. A full-face bulletproof mask can make a difference in close-quarters combat. The NIJ Level IIIA full-face masks from Atomic Defense protect against close-quarters weaponry like handguns, shotguns and knives.

Description

INDUSTRY LEADING FEATURES:

These are padded masks that cover the entire face, and slightly wrap around the side. They include five-point adjustable straps for the optimal fit.

BALLISTIC RESISTANCE:

NIJ level IIIA+ resists .44 Magnum, 9 mm, 45 ACP, 12-gauge buckshot and more.

TESTING PROCEDURE:

We fire multiple rounds into each mask from various guns using various types of ammunition. Details below.

Features

  • Easily stops 9mm, 45 ACP, .44 Mag, .22, .380, .38, 10mm, 12 gauge, 12 gauge buckshot and so much more! + See the chart below on our website.
  • PEAD (Polyethylene) fabric to yield the most comfortable shaping. Complete facial protection to keep rounds from penetrating your face. 
  • Upgraded Everlasting-elastic straps. Prevents loose feeling after thousands of uses.
  • Padding over the entire forehead, temples, cheekbones and cheeks. This keeps your face away from bullet impacts.
  • Newest version, direct from us in California! Designed for special forces around the world so you can rest easy. 
  • Don’t buy a bulletproof mask before reading this: Other retailers’ masks are not always rated and tested. Other masks risk bullet splatter and shrapnel in the user’s face from partial penetration. This full face ballistic helmet does not. 
  • This PEAD IIIA+ mask is also stabproof at certain levels. When you need this mask the most you’ll likely be close quarters. Don’t get another mask and risk knife penetration.
  • Easy Breathe Technology. No fog and no heat build-up in the mask. Spacing with the padding separates your face from the mask.
  • Paint and fabrics resist water, fire and dust.
  • Anti-reflective construction prevents glares from giving away your position.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bulletproof Clothing

  • WHAT FACE SIZE AND SHAPE DOES THIS MASK FIT?

    We’ve sold countless masks and can count on one hand issues with it fitting. It truly is a one-size-fits-all mask because of our placement for padding and spacing away from your face.

  • WHAT CAN YOU SEE OUT OF THE MASK? WHAT IS THE FIELD OF VIEW (FOV)?

    Humans have a horizontal FOV of 120 degrees (assuming two eyes and who you ask). With the mask, FOV becomes 100-110 degrees, beating the industry standard of 90 degrees.

  • CAN MY GLASSES FIT UNDER THE MASK?

    Yes, glasses can fit under the mask as long as they are thin-framed or frameless. Similar-sized glasses will also fit.

  • DO BULLETPROOF MASKS WORK?

    Yes and no. Bulletproof masks are able to stop the bullet, but the distance they are from your face will leave damage from higher caliber impacts. If you’re looking for maximum safety and visibility, a helmet and visor set might be the way to go. This gives 360-degree coverage, can safely stop more rounds, and has fewer limits to visibility.

  • WHAT MAKES THIS BALLISTIC MASK DIFFERENT?

    Our bulletproof masks cover the wearer from below the chin to the top of the forehead to stop or deflect bullets with minimal damage. Interior foam padding cushions the skin and bone while absorbing impact trauma to prevent and greatly reduce injury. A sure-fire way to not let a bullet take your head off. We test each unit against multiple firearm rounds to ensure they can take more than one hit.  

    In addition to their life-saving protection, full-face bulletproof masks are comfortable to wear. Polyethylene (PEAD) fabric allows the masks to shape comfortably to anyone’s face. The masks’ elastic straps fasten at six points for the ideal fit, and each one includes Easy Breath Technology that leaves an airflow gap in front of your face.

  • WHAT IS NIJ LEVEL IIIA+ CERTIFICATION AND TESTING?

    The National Institute of Justice (NIJ) sets precise performance standards for all body armor. Any safety equipment must stop ballistic penetration at a depth no greater than 44mm. Body armor receives certification for an NIJ category based on the types of ammunition it can hold to a 44m depth and the speed at which the round travels. Atomic Defense’s full-face bulletproof masks exceed requirements for Level II helmets certification under NIJ standard 0106.01. 

    Our masks will stop:

    • Handgun rounds: These include 9mm FMJ, 45 ACP, .44 Magnum, .22LR, .380 and many more.
    • Shotgun rounds: Both 12 gauge and 12 gauge buckshot.

    At Atomic Defense, we test our full-face masks beyond the NIJ’s requirements. Each of our masks can withstand multiple rounds without perforation or trauma per NIJ IIIA certification standards. You can find videos and paper certificates documenting all of our equipment’s performance online — contact Atomic Defense to learn more. 

  • WHEN WOULD I CHOOSE A FULL-FACE MASK?

    Full-face masks are the ideal facial protection under several circumstances. Choose a face mask over a visor attachment for a helmet when wearing a helmet is not an option or too cumbersome. 

    Another thing to consider is the difference between full-face masks and our half-face masks featuring high-end bulletproof. Full-face masks perform best without a combat helmet because they extend above the forehead. Choose the full-face option if you don’t have or don’t plan to wear other headgear.

AWESOME MASK!

This mask is awesome! It fits great and it’s very easy to see out of. I’m thinking about ordering one more for my son. The mask even comes with a bag to keep it in. Hopefully I’ll never have to use it. Glad I made the purchase! Thanks Atomic for the great face protection.

PERFECT.

Have not yet encountered the opportunity to partake in a fire fight. But the mask fits great and has a perfect surface for paint customization. Unfortunately not able to post a pic or I would.

GREAT FIT, DOESN'T WOBBLE AROUND

The mask fits great and feels good wearing it. The padding on the inside is not too soft and not too hard. The angle of view is a little limited especially downwards but that’s die to the fact that it’s only two small eyeholes.

Great experience but product needs adjustment which is no problem. I haven’t been shot at yet so it is difficult to make a full review at this time.Product is strong and sturdy.Hopefully will give me the edge when I am in danger.

SO FAR SO GOOD

First, let me preface this review with the clarification that I have not used the product for the intended purpose – and I hope I never have to. That said, I tried the product out, put it on, inspected it, and so on, and so far it seems good. The material seems tough but is of tolerable weight for the face. The straps are adjustable but seem to hold firm. I have a big head, as I’m a big guy, and it fits nicely with room to spare to fit an even larger head. It is comfortable when seated on the face directly, though some fabric between the mask’s padding and the wearer’s face may be preferable – something like a balaclava maybe. Overall, my opinion of this ballistic mask is almost entirely positive, though there are a couple concerns, or more appropriately I might just call them thoughts to consider: The mask covers effectively the entire head from the front – which is great – save for the eyes. Now, this is obviously not something that can be worked around, especially not cheaply by any means, but it is something to consider. The eyes are entirely exposed, and if you ARE in the unfortunate situation of being shot at, if a bullet catches one of those spots, the mask will do nothing to protect you. But, I will say that the mask has excellent visibility. In other words, your vision isn’t hindered effectively at all while wearing the mask. The second thought is regarding the padding inside the mask. Though comfortable, if you actually were to catch a bullet in the face, assuming the mask stops it, the mask is likely to deform on hit just like any other armor, meaning that although the bullet will not pierce your head, you will still be HIT by it – or rather, there’s a high chance that you will. While this will NOT **** you, it still has the power to break your facial bones, or if you were hit in the forehead, could possibly give you a concussion or knock you out. If hit near the mouth, it’ll almost definitely break your teeth. Consider adding some additional padding if you purchase one just to put a little more distance between your face and the mask itself- it doesn’t have to be much, maybe just an extra centimeter or so should be enough. Even so, you’ll still feel the strike across the entire mask whether the mask deforms or not, and if you can imagine being hit in the face by a steel bat by a professional baseball player, it’d be like that, but spread out across your entire head. You won’t die, but if you’re a normal person you’ll still be shaken up. Better than dead. Taking all of that into consideration, this mask is great for what it is. Anything short of Sci-Fi power armor will never be enough to protect you adequately, but if you want something that has great potential to save your life in a few precious moments of vulnerability? This mask will do fine.

Box came smashed by FedEX. Took the mask out to see no damage, warping, etc. Tested the mask with 9mm and it took about 10 shots to finally make it go through in the same area. Pretty crazy stuff.
