Helite Custom Airbag Leather Vest

Helite Custom Airbag Leather Vest

Helites custom vest is made for you! By stitching your patches you can even give the vest your own individual look. Custom guarantees a full freedom of movement and a maximum of comfort. For an optimal protection it integrates the Turtle Technology. You don´t have made to make anymore compromises.

Features:

• mechanical release
• Airbag capacity: 17 - 24 litres
• Airbag filling time: 80 - 100 milliseconds
• SAS-Tec back protector EN1621-2
• KNOX protectos on elbows and shoulders
• the hard outer protector in combination with the shock-absorbing air cushion ensures optimum impact absorption and protection against puncture
• the Helite Custom Airbag Vest is triggered mechanically, which prevents false activation or failure; changing batteries is not necessary
• very high abrasion resistance due to stable 1.2 mm thick cowhide to protect the airbag chamber
• close fit with elastic material on the arms and shoulders
• removable thermal lining (100% polyester) provides warmth at low temperatures
• outer and inner pockets

Specifications:

Activation:

• The release is effected by a rip cord, which is firmly attached to the vehicle and is inserted into the waistcoat when climbing on. It is very unlikely that the ripcord will be accidentally triggered by forgetting the ripcord when getting off the vehicle, as a force of about 300 Nm is required to activate the airbag. By replacing the CO2 cartridge, the jacket can be used again immediately after a deployment.
• In the event of a deployment, the system has the optimum pressure after 80 - 100 milliseconds to develop the full protective effect. This time span has been determined on the basis of Helite's many years of experience and numerous calculations and tests in order to provide the optimum pressure to protect the body at the exact moment of impact. Important parts of the body are already protected during the release process, when the full pressure has not yet been reached. 

Protection:

• SAS-TEC back protector EN1621-2
• KNOX protectors on elbows and shoulders
• The waistcoat features the innovative Turtle system. Here the Sas-Tec back protector lies over the airbag like a turtle shell in the event of a deployment. The spinal column remains free of any load and punctual forces are effectively distributed and absorbed over the entire airbag in the back area. The protection is therefore many times higher than with a standard airbag.
