Good morning gentlemen,
We wanted to take a moment and let you know about Roll bar padding. This bsci Roll bar padding Is soft to the touch and carries a SFi 45.1 rating.
It's an excelling padding for a street driven Miata with a Roll bar. The outer shell is soft, and the inner shell is a high density padding. designed for high velocity impacts.


You can bump your head on it and not get a welt. If the unfortunate does happen you will be protected.

it comes in 3' lengths. one stick is enough for a track day miata roll bar. 2 sticks will cover 100% of the main hoop. If you have door bars take the length into consideration.

 

I installed one 3' stick on my personal miata. -Johnny

 

How well does it survive UV exposure? Does it deteriorate like many types of SFI padding do?

 

UV Testing is in the works. In theory it should last much longer than traditional sfi impact padding. generally the traditional sfi rated pads will break down under prolonged exposure to sunlight. The soft outer shell covers and protects the SFI rated inner material from sunlight. *Note the 2 piece construction that you see in the second image. The outer layer is soft and almost gummy feeling. The inner layer is the sfi rated high impact padding.

 

3 months later, 9 Demos (sits at a racetrack for 2 days) of being out in the sun all day. it still looks new, outer shell is still soft to the touch.
