For motorcycle riders, the purchase of helmets must not be just for the sake of low price. Many low-quality helmets with bright appearance are actually produced with various waste plastic bags as raw materials. As a result, the safety helmet used to protect motorcycle riders has become the "killer" of motorcycle riders.
Most motorcycle riders don't know what the safety standards of Motorcycle Crew Helmets are, which helmet brands are trustworthy, and what kind of helmets are good helmets. Therefore, consumers follow blindly and are not rational in choosing helmets. Cheap, good-looking and comfortable have become the primary conditions for helmet selection, rather than putting safety first.
For the safety of yourself and your family, don't buy or use inferior and fake motorcycle helmets. Let's share the following simple identification methods for motorcycle helmets:
1. The shell shall be made of hard, durable materials that can absorb more impact energy; The buffer layer shall be made of non-toxic and harmless materials that can absorb more collision energy and cover the head protection area; The pad is made of sweat absorbing, breathable and other materials; Wear the device to ensure that the helmet is firmly in contact with the head; The goggles are made of materials that meet the light transmission performance and impact force, and the light transmission rate is not less than 85%.
2. Weight requirements of helmet: full helmet<1.6kg, half helmet<1.3kg, left and right horizontal vision>105 °, upper vision>7 °.
3. The helmet must have fixed signs, such as product name, manufacturer name and address, trademark, product type, product model, specification, production date, product batch number or serial number.
4. Helmets can be divided into three sizes according to the head circumference: large 580~600mm, medium 560~580mm, and small 540~560mm. When choosing helmets, you must choose the appropriate number according to your head circumference.
5. The helmet should not be used after a major collision accident.
When choosing a helmet, you should also pay attention to holding both sides of the helmet with your left and right hands, and then rub your head up from left to right. When taking off the helmet, on the contrary, shake it from side to side after putting on the helmet to see if it is appropriate in size. The tightness is subject to no pinching or shaking. When measuring the weight of the helmet, you can't use your hands. The correct way is to use your head after wearing it. If your neck doesn't feel heavy, it's OK.
