HANS devices are now required in most circuit racing and rally championships (eg F1, WRC, WTCC, F3000, Nascar, IRL, Champ Car, DTM, GT International, etc..) and are highly recommended by the FIA even when they are not mandatory.
The HANS device has established itself as a fundamental component of driver safety as tests have shown it reduces the risk of neck and spinal injury in the event of sudden and violent deaccelerations often experienced in racing related impacts.
Our HANS device is made from high strength carbon fibre and complies with FIA 8858-2002, a standard which established the criteria for optimal resistance to the forces applied to a drivers head and neck in the sudden decceleration experienced in an impact.
We offer two ranges of product, the Pro range (520g to 600g) and the Hi-Tec range (4006 to 500g) which are amongst the lightest available
How to choose the correct HANS Device To choose the appropriate size and model of Hans® device, it is necessary to determine the angle of your seating position and to measure your neck size. The Hans device can be used with any helmet which has FIA/Hans® homologation and approval.
