Helite Air Shell Gilet

Helite is the most trusted and proven equestrian airbag manufacturer in the market.  Helite Air Jackets offer protection for the back, pelvis and chest.  They give neck coverage as well as preventing impact injuries.  

To guarantee a proper functioning of the airbag system, it is of crucial importance to mount the trigger system correctly. The order must always be: piston, key-ball (notch on piston to fit the ball in), spring and bearing cap. The needle of the piston must point in the direction of the cartridge, the key-ball has to fit in the notch of the piston.

Caution: Never put the key-ball between spring and piston, this disables the system to trigger.
