TURBINE
TECHNOLOGY

LEATT HELMETS COMBAT FORCES IN 3 DIFFERENT WAYS:

Rotation protection with 360° Turbine Technology

The optimally designed turbine discs enable the helmet to move slightly on the head upon impact, reducing peak acceleration to the head & brain.

Low impact protection with 360° Turbine Technology

The special energy absorbing material in the turbines absorbs low impact energy associated with concussion.

High impact protection with impact foam

The helmet impact foam liner absorbs energy at high impact.

WHAT DOES A
360° TURBINE DO?

The 360° Turbine Technology decreases rotational acceleration and linear g-forces, reducing impact force and lowering the risk of concussion.

MOVEMENT

The bending and deforming of the turbines reduces the peak brain rotational acceleration

  • THE LEATT LAB

    The Leatt Lab is a custom-built, state-of-the-art research and development facility. It is staffed by a dedicated team made up of a doctor, biomedical engineers and product designers who are driven by a shared mission: to create the safest, most effective protective gear for riders.


    The development of the 360° Turbine Technology is the result of the rigorous testing and innovation that takes place in the Leatt Lab. Each aspect of the technology is researched and tested, from the unique energy-absorbing material and its geometry to the strategic positioning of the turbines. To ensure optimal performance, helmets are subjected to a range of impact scenarios that mimic real-world riding conditions.


    These comprehensive tests ensure that the 360° Turbine Technology delivers premium protection in various crash situations and provides fantastic rider confidence. For the purpose of verification, third party labs are also used to test Leatt product performance.


    The patented 360° Turbine Technology is just another way in which Leatt continues to set the standard in rider safety. You can learn more about the science behind the 360° Turbine Technology here.
