RuRoC Helmet Construction

Exploded view of the helmetThe basic helmet design uses two main sections made up of an internal liner (EPS) and a hard external shell (ABS). Multiple recessed pathways have been removed from the normally smooth EPS. This allows air to circulate and pass between this and the ABS external shell. Strategically located air intake apertures provide a constant source of forced air which is increased through motion giving the wearer more ventilation when they need it most.

 

The pathways formed in the EPS are crossed by a series of apertures in the ABS shell that penetrate both layers directly to the wearers head. This allows the warm air created by the wearer to rise directly up and into the pathways where the controlled intake air mixes, drawing and pulling it away causing a cooling effect. During movement the helmet is continually regulated with a fresh supply of vented, turbulent air flow.

 

All EPS liners are supplied by leading manufacturer Styropack.
