Passes and choice

Put on the rib guard, attach and tighten the chest attachment strap securely. Be sure that the rib guard is comfortable, covers the rib cage properly and does not impede chest and arm movement or breathing.

To choose the right size, the rib protector should be worn with the clothes one normally wears underneath.

Maintenance and storage

If the rib guard becomes dirty, it can be cleaned with a damp cloth and soapy water. Store hanging or lying down in a dry and well-ventilated place, away from heat sources and direct sunlight.

Points of attention when purchasing a high-quality rib protection

For rib protection, there is no form of homologation. That is, the FIA/CIK has no direct requirements for neck protection.

In general; safety comes first; please be well informed before purchasing rib guards. If you are going to participate in karting competitions, it applies that most organizers have included in their regulations the requirements for these garments.

You prefer to avoid ribs and chest injuries. Nothing as annoying for a crankcase as, for example, bruised ribs. An injury that you will generally suffer, but the extent to which it occurs is certainly important. A good protection can save a lot of suffering.

Whereas until a few years ago it was mainly the simple rib protectors, vests with foam padding and protection in the form of a plastic cocoon that were mostly worn, today you see more and more elaborate body protectors being offered.

You do see around you that those bodyprotectors don't always fit well when seated in a proper size kart seat. A tip when buying; don't just fit the bodyprotector by size, but see if it can be worn comfortably under the kart overalls and especially if it can still be worn comfortably in a kart seat.
