FlexCore™ Cummerbund

FullTang's FlexCore™ Cummerbund delivers extreme expandability, comfort, and rigidity with a 3" profile, a tactical thermoplastic core, and a sliding mechanism that fits inside of the outer sleeve. The FlexCore™ utilizes a simple but effective locking method that allows quick sizing adjustments in the field while swapping out base layers, adding equipment, or if you are putting on or losing weight. The FlexCore™ is a highly modular, scalable, and adaptable cummerbund system for plate carriers that is truly a one-size-fits-most platform. Based on the same principles as a load-bearing rucksack, the thermoplastic core is flexible around the contour of the waist while properly distributing weight across the body, eliminating the common hotspots that most carriers create due to improper load carriage applications. The FlexCore™ system acts as an "exoskeleton" to transfer the load where it belongs, to the front and rear plate bags instead of on top of your shoulders. With a properly seated cummerbund, the load is then transferred to the hips where it belongs. Thus, mimicking the same principles as a rucksack with a hip belt. The comfort level of this system working in conjunction with all components is unparalleled. Utilizing CURV® Tactical as the structural support of the cummerbund, the FlexCore™ becomes puncture resistant, flexible, and maintains strength in extremely low temperatures. It is a battle-proven hydrophobic thermoplastic composite material that serves as a durable lightweight stiffener for high quality tactical gear.  The outer layer is built with laser-cut laminate material with MOLLE attachment points. Behind the cummerbund, we included plush loop Velcro for attaching hook-backed pouches and inserts, which also serves as the locking system. Our Body Pad Set can easily stick to the inside walls of the cummerbund to provide additional comfort.  The FlexCore™ core is a thermoplastic sheet with laser-cut openings that serve as the sizing adjustment points. When the core is inserted into the main sleeve, Velcro straps are used both in the front and rear of the core to wrap around through the openings and back to the Velcro backing of the cummerbund. This method locks the core securely within the sleeve at two points, rather than one, and prevents it from sliding out or from being jarred forward. Quick-release FirstSpear Tubes® can be utilized with our Tubes Cummerbund Adapter (sold separately). Simply remove the included hook and loop flaps from the front and quickly connect the Tubes Adapter within seconds. The rear connection of the cummerbund to the plate carrier consists of hook and loop covering a thermoplastic core and strong elastic bands that allow the system to flex while bending, twisting, or sitting in a vehicle. This is paramount during tactical drills or mission-critical activities where stopping to adjust the tightness isn't an option.  For even more modularity, the FlexCore™ can be quickly removed from the plate carrier and transition into a range/battle belt using our Belt Buckle Adapter and Rear Belt Panel (sold separately). FlexCore™ Cummerbund was built with innovation and simplicity to bring you one of the most comfortable, low-profile, adaptable, and modular cummerbunds that you will ever find. It is a universal system that fits our Antithesis Plate Carrier flawlessly and will do the same with most carriers on the market.  Works with all of our chest rigs with our adapters. Works as a load-bearing belt kit with our adapters. Fits up to 40" waist/pant size.  Made in the USA / Berry Compliant
