UBI Cummerbund Sizing

Overview

The Armor Express UBI Cummerbund Sizing Chart ensures correct selection of Universal Ballistic Insert (UBI) side-armor panels for XPANDO, Tube, and Taktic cummerbunds. This chart eliminates guesswork by matching carrier size and cummerbund type to the exact UBI insert required for full side coverage.

Key Features

  • Clear size mapping from carrier Alpha size to correct UBI panel
  • Supports XPANDO Laser Cut, Tube Xpando, and standard Taktic cummerbunds
  • Works with Raven X, Hard Core H3, and all compatible Armor Express carriers
  • Prevents over- or under-coverage of vital thoracic areas
  • Gender-neutral design for agency-wide standardization

UBI Cummerbund Sizing Chart Application

Operators simply match their carrier size (e.g., Large-Regular Raven X) to the corresponding UBI insert listed. For example, Large XPANDO cummerbunds require the Large UBI panel for seamless integration. Additionally, the chart accounts for both Taktic Buckle and Tube configurations. Consequently, agencies achieve consistent side-armor protection across all users without excess bulk or gaps.

Technical Details

Measurement Basis: Back-panel width of primary carrier

Compatibility: XPANDO Laser Cut, Tube Xpando, Taktic Buckle cummerbunds

Carrier Mapping: Direct correlation to Enhanced Alpha carrier sizing

Insert Type: UBI Dynamic Ballistic Inserts & USI Stiffeners

The Armor Express UBI Cummerbund Sizing Chart explains how to select your cummerbund size.

How to Size Your Cummerbund &UBI/USI Inserts in 3 Steps

  1. Step 1 – Identify Your Carrier Type and Size

    Check your current carrier label or use the Enhanced Alpha Sizing chart. Example: Raven X Large-Regular = “LG-R”, Hard Core FE 2415/2415 = custom 24 width.

  2. Step 2 – Determine Required Cummerbund Upgrade Size

    • Alpha-sized carriers (XS, SM, LG, etc.) → cummerbund size matches carrier size exactly (LG carrier = Large cummerbund).
    • Custom-sized carriers (2315/2515, etc.) → add front + back width ÷ 2 → answer = cummerbund size (example: 23 + 25 = 48 ÷ 2 = 24 = X-Large).
    • LightHawk XT 3.0 / XT 3.0 QR → upgrade cummerbund is always one size larger than marked carrier size (Medium LXT 3.0 = Large cummerbund).

  3. Step 3 – Select Matching UBI/USI Insert

    The UBI & USI insert size is identical to the cummerbund upgrade size
    (Large cummerbund = Large UBI 5.5″ × 12.0″).

    Hard Core FE uses Medium UBI across Medium–2XL carriers.
