Airfence products are made from heavy
duty, reinforced PVC fabric that is extremely strong yet flexible
and highly UV stabilized. This means that you can happily leave
it in the sun for many years without it degrading. Of course,
it's fire retardant too. So you will be using a safe product for
your track staff and one that will last.
An Airfence IIs safety system is made up of sections strapped
together so it can be any length and suit any corner. Each section
consists of front and back cushions, separating cushions dividing
the front from the back, and normal or ambient air pressure cells.
All the cushions are lightly inflated to approximately 0.3 psi
and these create the frame and cells to stand the Airfence up
and hold it's shape. Pressure relief valves are fitted to the
cushions to regulate the air pressure. The modules have angled
ends so that they overlap.
The work of absorbing impact is done by the inflated frame and
the normal air pressure cells which build up pressure to increasingly
decelerate the rider. These cells also exhaust regulated air to
ensure that pressures do not build up excessively to create sudden
deceleration and injure the rider. They also stop "rebound" where
a rider could be thrown back on to the track in front of other
riders.
For the situation of multiple accidents, for instance where oil
is spilt on the track and a number of riders crash, Airfence IIs is designed to very quickly resume it's shape and be ready for further impacts almost immediately the first rider gets off the
Airfence.
Unlike some imitations of Airfence IIs, our safety system has
key features to ensure it's reliable performance:
- joining straps using seat belt webbing and D rings forming
the strongest joint.
- 950 gsm inflatable boat fabric for our inflated cushions to
give greater resistance to puncture and tearing
- conveyor belt "skirt" to stop riders sliding underneath
- integrally strong central air cells with no potentially weak
hook and loop flaps
