Safety class of motorcycle helmet

Motorcycle helmet SNELL safety standard is a professional standard. Many professional drivers wear professional helmets that meet this standard, with more stringent requirements and higher safety level.

In addition to the helmet shell, the common helmet shell materials on the market at present are mainly thermoplastic plastic, glass fiber reinforced plastic and carbon fiber materials. Thermoplastic plastic is not suitable for manufacturing motorcycle helmets, with poor impact resistance and low price. If you like a helmet, but can't know the material of the shell, it is recommended to give up.

However, polycarbonate is also one of the thermoplastics. Its physical properties are better than ordinary thermoplastics, and its price is cheap. It is often combined with acrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer, which is a common so-called ABS engineering plastic material. The helmet shell made of this material has good impact resistance, Generally, it is the preferred shell material for middle and low end helmets.

Motorcycle helmet Fiberglass is the common name of glass fiber. Its physical properties are better and more stable than ABS engineering plastics, and it can withstand the test of time. It is the first material for high-end helmets.
