What is the difference between 6k, 12k, and 24k carbon fiber helmets?
1 Answers
The difference between 6k, 12k, and 24k carbon fiber helmets lies in the number of filaments in the carbon fiber bundles. Functions of carbon fiber helmets: Carbon fiber helmets offer strong impact resistance, friction resistance, high strength, high-temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, minimal deformation, long service life, and lightweight properties, providing better protection for the head. Difference between 6k, 12k, and 24k carbon fiber helmets: 24K generates twice the heat output of 12K. 24K refers to 24,000 heating filaments, while 12K refers to 12,000 heating filaments. For the same model, 12k and 24k carbon fibers are similar in tensile strength, elastic modulus, fiber density, elongation rate, and carbon content, but differ in the diameter of the carbon fiber bundles.
