Upgrade your track safety with the Hans III Device, the lightest and most comfortable injection-molded Hans Device ever created. Featuring a specially engineered hollow collar and targeted design reinforcements, it delivers substantial weight reduction while maintaining an exceptionally strong, proven safety structure. The sculpted round collar, similar to the Sport 2, enhances driver comfort and makes entering or exiting your car easier than ever. Specifically tailored for reclined seating, the Model 30 features an increased arm angle perfect for open-cockpit, Formula-type cars. This specialized angle also provides a superior fit for drivers with broader chests, eliminating the discomfort caused by a standard device pressing against the back of your head.

HANS Installation Instructions

Most modern Snell SA2015 and later and/or FIA8858/FIA8860/FIA8859 helmets have threaded mounting posts bonded into the helmet shell. This allows for very quick and easy installation without the need for specialty tools or helmet modification. If your helmet does not have these threaded mounting points, please get in touch with us for assistance.

Tools needed for installation:

  • 5/32 or 4mm Allen Key (put down your impact gun - either size will fit)
  • Hans Anchor Key/Wrench (not included) OR Hans Tether attached to your device

Instructions:

  1. Using the entire anchor, thread it onto the terminal on the helmet. Note that threadlocker has been pre-applied to the anchor's thread. If transferring the anchor to a new helmet, fresh threadlocker is recommended.
  2. Hand-tighten the screw until snug, making sure the point on the anchor faces rearward. When installing Quick-Click-style anchors, the opening hasp should point rearward. (Click here for sample image)
  3. Tighten the screw a ¼ turn past snug. You may need to hold the anchor still while tightening to ensure the point on the anchor remains facing rearward. This can be accomplished with the flat edge of a connected tether or using the specialty Hans Anchor Key (or similar flat spanner wrench). Note: Not a lot of force is needed to tighten this screw - if you are having problems keeping the point on the anchor in place, you're probably over-tightening! Overtightening can easily break the bonded anchor terminal and/or otherwise damage your helmet!
  4. Test your installation by connecting the Hans tether to the anchor and makeing sure it slides on/off with little resistance. If the anchor is installed too tightly, it will feel tight.
  5. That's it!
