NecksGen REV Head Restraint Systems: Better Protection for Your Head and Neck

The head and neck restraint systems available on the market all provide excellent protection in the event of an accident, but some can limit freedom of movement and make it difficult to get in and out of the race car.

NecksGen addressed that issue with the REV Head Restraint System. It replaced the heavy yoke used in similar systems with a patented tethering system. This makes the NecksGen REV more ergonomically correct, minimizing interference between the seat and the helmet while improving comfort and reducing weight. That makes it easier to get out of the race car during an emergency situation.

The NecksGen REV features Nomex shoulder padding that rests on the trapezius muscle rather than the clavicles (collarbones) so the load of an impact is evenly diffused among the multiple load paths designed into the tension helmet tether system. The NecksGen REV system also reduces the chance of injury to the chest or collarbones under impact.

The NecksGen REV Head Restraint Systems are SFI 38.1-rated and come with a quick release helmet anchor and integrated harness belt guides. They are available in three versions:

The standard REV Head Restraint comes with a fixed-length helmet tether. The medium size restraint (the most common size for adults) weighs approximately 1.3 pounds.

The REV2 Lite Head Restraint has an adjustable-length helmet tether and higher belt guides to better secure you in the seat. The medium size REV2 weighs 1.2 pounds.

The REV2 Carbon Head Restraint has the same features as the REV2 Lite, but weighs less than one pound in medium size.
