Double track guards: raising the bar on kart track protection
Kart track guards are an important part of track safety facilities, mainly used to protect drivers and spectators and reduce injuries caused by collisions.
The following are its main features and functions:
1. Material and structure
Material: usually made of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), rubber or composite materials with flexibility, impact resistance and durability.
Structure: The guards are usually designed to be modular for easy installation and replacement, with a smooth surface to minimize damage to the kart.


2. Functions and roles
Cushioning the collision: The guard can absorb the collision energy, reduce the impact of the driver at the time of impact, reduce the risk of injury.
Protecting the driver: preventing the kart from rushing out of the track or colliding directly with other obstacles, guaranteeing the driver's safety.
Protecting Spectators: Guard plates are installed at the edge of the track to prevent karts from accidentally rushing into the spectator area.
Guiding Vehicles: The guards can help drivers judge the boundary of the track and guide vehicles to stay within the track.
3. Installation Location
Track Edge: Installed along both sides of the track to prevent vehicles from deviating from the track.
Curve area: Strengthen protection in high-speed curves or dangerous areas to reduce the risk of accidents.
Start-finish area: install guards near the start-finish to prevent vehicles from losing control due to excessive speed.


4. Types
Fixed guards: permanently fixed on the track, suitable for professional tracks.
Movable guards: Easy to set up and dismantle the temporary track, suitable for events or temporary venues.
5. Maintenance and Inspection
Regularly check the integrity and solidity of the guards and replace damaged parts in time.
Clean the surface of the guards to ensure their smoothness and visibility.

Kart track guards are a key facility to ensure track safety, which can effectively reduce the risk of accidents and provide a safer racing environment for drivers and spectators.
