3. HELMET ANCHOR INSTALLATION
The HANS® Device attaches to your helmet via two metal anchors. 90% of our customers install their own anchors - all you need is a 1/4 inch drill and measuring tape. Devices come with instructions plus a special installation tool. If you prefer we will install the anchors for you as an extra cost option. Please select this service in Parts and Accessories to let us know you prefer this.

The head & neck restraint Experts

What Does A Head & Neck Restraint Do?The most common fatal racing injury is the basilar skull fracture. Non-fatal head and neck injuries are also the biggest reason why a driver may miss days or weeks of works.  Well design head & neck restraints help to protect against these injuries.

In a crash, a driver's torso is restrained by their multi point harness. Without a head & neck restraint, their head/helmet is free to whip and injuries can occur.  If the whipping exceeds certain limits, the base of the skull breaks, severing the arteries that supply the brain, and the driving bleeds to death.

The best head & neck restraints also limit the amount of distance a user's head/helmet moved in an impact as hitting something during an incident can cause additional injuries

Fatal injuries can happen at any speed if the crash is severe enough.  Dale Earnhardt died of a basilar skull fracture yet hit the wall at only 43 mph.  He was not wearing a head & neck restraint.  In contrast, Ritchie Hearn hit the wall at over 200 mph.  His only injury was a broken foot - and he credits the HANS Device with saving his life.
Industry Leaders Since 1981
Performance
Despite claims you might see elsewhere, recent SFI 38.1 recertification testing has again confirmed that HANS® Devices continue to offer Industry-leading performance.  Check out the graph to the right.  What's more, rest assured we have never published our best results.  Why?  We figure that providing typical results is simply the best way of presenting safety product data to racers.  Wonder if the competition sets the same high standards?  So do we.


The HANS® Device is the only head and neck restraint trusted and required by NASCAR, Formula 1, A1GP, World Rally, ALMS, GP2, Champ Car, IROC, GrandAm and many more.

Testing
HANS® Performance is the only head and neck restraint manufacturer with its own in-house test laboratory.  Our equipment permits us to conduct a range of performance tests, including the ability to run simple sled tests.  We use our test facility for both production control and product development.  For high-G sled testing, we tend to use the Delphi Engineering Center in Vandalla, Ohio, as it chouses one of the few test sleds in the world capable of creating the SFI 38.1 crash environment.
