When installing any type of steel bar in close proximity to a soft-fleshed human, it's imperative to install rollbar padding as well. There are two types. High-Density and Standard.
The High Density padding only covers half of the rollbar and attaches with tape like adhesive that comes on the padding. We recommend using some heavy duty zip ties to further secure the padding. This will help keep it in place. You want to use the High Density padding wherever your head may come in contact with the rollbar. The padding is designed to work with a helmet to help lower impact forces on your brain. It's only necessary to cover the area facing your head.
Use the standard padding wherever else you want padding. the most common places for this are on door bars or bars that cross just above your legs. The Standard padding has an offset hole that allows it to mount close to the chassis and offer as much protection as possible.
All of the High Density padding is SFI approved for flammability. It comes in 3 foot lengths, so measure up and see how much you'll need.

The newest advance in rollbar padding technology, this dual durometer padding gives you the best of both worlds, Comfort and Safety.
This product solves a very common problem in race car setup. Soft rollbar padding is what keeps you comfortable in normal everyday use. It keeps you from bruising your body everytime you move inside the car. The problem with that is that it's so soft that it does absolutely nothing to help protect you from real "bone on steel pipe" injury.
Testing has shown that the high density rollbar padding works well at protecting your bones. The problem is that it is hard enough to bruise in day-to-day use.
The solution? have a dual density pad. Put the high density padding right against the bar, and then mold a piece of softer more forgiving padding around it. This padding is only slightly thicker than standard soft padding but offers the real protection you need.
Yes it is more expensive - but the safety benefit far outweighs the small investment. And trust us - you will be so thankful without all those bruises from getting in and out of your car.
Comes in black only, in 3 foot segments.
