Bengio AB7 rib protection FIA 8870-2018 approval

Bengio AB7 rib protection FIA 8870-2018 approval completely handmade. Lateral protection. Available in various sizes.

Starting with the guaranteed success of BUMPER and following the changes in the karting scenario, BENGIO technology evolves today to the new Bengio AB7 rib protector FIA 8870-2018 approval, the first rib protector of the BENGIO family homologated under FIA standard 8870-2018.

AB7 RIB PROTECTOR represents the edge of this evolution through the combination of:

TOTAL BODY SAFETY
The regular side protection is integrated with new elements for the protection of the sternum and back of the drivers to get around safety where the whole upper body finds protection and comfort.
Back protector Tested for impact energy at 100 joules
Chest protector Tested for impact energy at 60 joules
Rib protector Tested for impact energy at 100 joules

The FIA standard requires that the maximum peak force recorder must not exceed 1 kN at any time during the collision. AB7 tests achieve largely superior results according to the required standards.

DESIGN AND ERGONOMICS

The AB7 layout provides better adhesion to any part of the driver's body. The new design of this Bengio AB7 rib protection FIA 8870-2018 approval, lateral rib protection provides a better fit in the driving position, while the elastic shoulder straps allow for adjustable adjustment for any body structure.

SEALING SYSTEM
Thanks to the new locking system, designed and registered by BENGIO, the operator can wear and adjust the rib guard in a simple, quick and safe way, ensuring that the protective areas remain in place during the driving session in accordance with the FIA safety standard.

MATERIALS
The use of composite fibres guarantees the highest standards of resistance and safety in the event of an accident, even after multiple uses. The internal padding, made of highly shock-absorbent foam, distributes the impact energy and vibrations to which the driver is subjected during the karting session.

VERVAARDIGD IN ITALY Bengio AB7 is made entirely by hand in Italy. The in-house development and manufacturing of each component allows precise control of the quality of BENGIO products, guaranteeing the safety promised to every driver who chooses BENGIO ribs.

Points of attention when purchasing a high-quality rib protection
For rib protection, there is no form of homologation. This means that the FIA/CIK has no direct requirements for neck protection.
In general; safety comes first; be well informed before purchasing a rib protector.

If you are going to participate in karting competitions, it applies that most organizers have included the requirements for these garments in their regulations.

You prefer to avoid ribs and chest injuries. Nothing as annoying for a crankcase as, for example, bruised ribs. An injury that you will generally suffer, but the extent to which it occurs is certainly important. A good protection can save a lot of suffering.

Until a few years ago, it was mainly the simple rib protectors, vests with foam padding and a protection in the form of a plastic cocoon that were often worn, nowadays you see more and more extensive body protectors on offer. You can see around you that these bodyprotectors do not always sit well when sitting in the right size go-kart seat.

A tip at the time of purchase; don't just customize the bodyprotector, but look if it can also be worn comfortably under the go-kart coverall and especially if it can still be worn comfortably in a go-kart seat.

Who's Bengio?
It all started more than 15 years ago when Alessandro Begnozzi, a promising Kart driver, suffered a serious chest injury in an ordinary racing accident that almost forced him to stop racing. After realizing the inadequacy of ordinary rib protectors, his father Stefano decided to design a new product that combines an ergonomic design with higher safety standards. He spent over a year developing the ultimate protector, involving five-time world champion Danilo Rossi and the entire DR Racing Team for continuous testing and improvement.
