Bengio AB7 Rib Protector Female - FIA 8870-2018 approved

The Bengio AB7 Women's Rib Protector is a high-quality, fully handmade rib protector from Italy, specially designed for female kart drivers. This premium rib protector meets the strict FIA 8870-2018 homologation standards and offers an excellent combination of safety, comfort, and ergonomics.

Thanks to its anatomical design tailored to the female body, the AB7 fits perfectly in the karting position and offers optimal protection without restricting freedom of movement.

Maximum protection for the ribs, chest, and back

The Bengio AB7 protects not only the ribs, but also the sternum and back. This ensures you have complete upper-body protection during training and competitions.

Tested impact protection:

• Back protection: tested to withstand 100 joules of impact energy
• Chest protection: tested to withstand 60 joules of impact energy
• Rib protection: tested to withstand 100 joules of impact energy

These results more than meet the FIA 8870-2018 standard, with the maximum peak force during impact remaining below the required limit of 1 kN.

Specially designed for female drivers

The AB7 Women's model features an anatomically contoured design that takes the female physique into account. This results in a better fit, greater comfort, and an optimal fit to the body while riding.

The adjustable elastic shoulder straps ensure that the rib protector can be easily adjusted to fit different body types.

Innovative BENGIO locking system

The patented BENGIO closure mechanism makes it easy to adjust the rib protector quickly and precisely. This ensures that all protective components remain securely in place, even during intense races and under heavy loads.

High quality materials

The AB7 is made from strong composite fibers that ensure excellent durability and impact resistance. The internal shock-absorbing padding effectively disperses impact energy and reduces vibrations while riding.

Every Bengio AB7 Rib Protector is entirely handmade in Italy and undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure maximum reliability and safety.

Why choose a Bengio rib protector?

Rib and chest injuries are among the most common injuries in karting. A high-quality rib protector helps prevent these injuries while also increasing comfort and confidence behind the wheel.

Important: A rib protector may still look perfectly fine on the outside, even though the internal protective layers have already absorbed an impact. Therefore, check the fit and protective performance regularly, and replace the protector in a timely manner if necessary.

Tip: Always try on the rib protector with your racing suit and check how comfortable it is in the kart seat to ensure the best fit.
