Description
The Simpson Hybrid Pro Lite is the pinnacle of head and neck restraint technology, offering the ultimate combination of safety, lightweight performance, and driver comfort. Engineered for professional competition, the Pro Lite is crafted from high-grade carbon fiber, making it one of the lightest and strongest devices on the market.
Equipped with the M61 Quick Release / Dual End Tether Kit, this model is designed for elite maneuverability and rapid detachment. Whether you are navigating tight corners or need to exit the vehicle quickly in an emergency, the Hybrid Pro Lite provides a seamless interface between the driver and the safety cell.
Elite Certification & Protection
-
Dual Certified: Meets both SFI 38.1 and FIA 8858-2010 standards, making it globally legal for almost every professional racing series.
-
Superior Strength-to-Weight: The carbon fiber construction ensures maximum structural integrity during high-G impacts while significantly reducing the physical load on the driver's shoulders.
-
Continuous Safety: Unlike traditional restraints, the Hybrid system is designed to stay with the racer, providing consistent protection through multiple impacts, flips, and barrel rolls.
Design & Ergonomics
-
Lowest Profile in Class: The Hybrid Pro Lite features the lowest profile of any comparable device. The sleek design "disappears" into the seat, allowing for a more natural driving position and preventing the head from being pushed forward.
-
Unobstructed Exits: With no high back or bulky hardware to hook on roll bars or window nets, the Pro Lite ensures a faster and safer exit from the cockpit.
-
M61 Quick Release System: Includes a high-performance tether kit that allows for instant, one-handed detachment from the helmet anchors with a simple pull of the release tethers.
Advanced Performance Features
-
Maximum Maneuverability: The dual-end tether system is engineered to provide an increased range of motion for side-to-side head movement, essential for checking mirrors and blind spots without sacrificing vertical restraint.
-
SAS (Seatbelt Anchor System) Ready: Compatible with Simpson's optional Seatbelt Anchor System for enhanced protection during side impacts and rolls.
-
Race Ready Packaging: Ships fully assembled and includes both M61 Quick Release and D-ring helmet anchors to get you on the track immediately.
-
Size: Adult Large.

Care & Maintenance
To ensure the continued performance of your Hybrid Pro Lite, inspect the carbon fiber frame before every race for any signs of hairline cracks or impact stress. Clean the device using only a damp cloth and mild detergent; avoid chemical cleaners that may damage the resin. Store the device in a padded safety bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Regularly inspect the M61 tethers and hardware for fraying or mechanical wear. SFI 38.1 devices require recertification every five years—check the manufacturing date on your SFI tag to ensure your gear remains compliant with your sanctioning body's rules.
