The air cushions are made
of a strong, high quality urethane film to absorb and reduce
the shock of impact when inflated.
|
|
|
The maximum pressure when fully inflated is
about 35kpa (0.35kg/cm2) (5 psi.), but gradually
decreases due to the operation of the built-in gas release valve.
|
|
|
Durability depends on the fabric
of the jacket, the material of the inner tube (urethane) and
the strength of the stitching as well as the degree of impact,
shape or density of the objects the rider may hit after the
"Hit Air" inflates.
|
|
|
The gas is conveyed from the
"key box" to each air cushion through urethane tubing.
|
| * |
The "Hit Air" is designed to
act as a shock absorber and like a car's air cushion may not
be reusable following an impact, depending on the shape of any
object struck and the force of any impact. |
