Bengio AB7 Women's Rib Protector, FIA 8870-2018 Certified

The Bengio AB7 WOMEN'S Rib Protector, FIA 8870 2018 Certified, is a high-quality, fully handmade rib protector from Italy, specially designed for female kart drivers. This model is certified according to the FIA 8870-2018 standard and is part of the latest generation of protective gear within the BENGIO family.

Thanks to its anatomical fit, advanced materials, and innovative design, this rib protector offers an exceptional combination of safety, comfort, and stability in the kart seat.

Maximum protection for the upper body

The AB7 goes beyond traditional rib protectors and offers full upper-body protection. In addition to the ribs, it also protects the sternum and back.

Back protection tested for impact energy up to 100 joules

Chest protection tested for impact energy up to 60 joules

Rib protection tested to withstand 100 joules of impact energy

The performance exceeds FIA requirements by a wide margin, with peak force during impact remaining below 1 kN. This ensures maximum energy absorption and reduces the physical strain on the body upon contact with the kart seat or in the event of a crash.

Specially designed for the female anatomy

The AB7 Women's is designed with a specific women's fit. The design, featuring an adjusted bust cutout, ensures:

Better fit

Fewer pressure points while driving

Greater comfort in the driving position and kart seat

Optimal freedom of movement without compromising safety

Adjustable elastic shoulder straps ensure that the protector easily adapts to different body shapes.

Innovative BENGIO locking system

The patented BENGIO locking mechanism makes putting on and adjusting the rib protector quick, easy, and safe. While riding, the protector stays firmly in place, even under high G-forces and during intense races.

Materials and Construction

The AB7 is constructed from high-quality composite fibers that ensure exceptional durability and impact resistance, even under heavy use.

The internal shock-absorbing padding:

Distributes impact energy evenly

Reduces vibrations while driving

Increases comfort during long kart

Each rib protector is entirely handmade in Italy and individually inspected for quality.

Why a rib protector is essential

Rib and chest injuries are among the most common karting injuries. A good rib protector not only prevents injuries but also boosts confidence and comfort on the track.

Please note: Damage to the internal structure of a rib protector is not always visible from the outside. Repeated impacts and changes in body composition can cause the protection to diminish over time.

Therefore, check the fit regularly and replace the protector in a timely manner if necessary.

Important tips for use

Always wear the rib protector under your racing suit

Check the fit both in the driving position and in the kart seat

Make sure there are no pressure points when sitting

Protect your cover by adding foam to the seat bolts if necessary

Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight
