Protect your ribs like the pros with the Tillett P1 Rib Protector – a high-performance karting rib protector developed by the original innovators of hard-shell rib protection, Tillett.

Tillett pioneered rib protection in karting in 1996 with the launch of the original Ribtec – the first rib protector to feature a rigid outer shell. The P1 continues this legacy with a multi-layer construction, combining impact-dispersing composite panels and a soft energy-absorbing inner layer to help reduce the risk of injury during high-G cornering and impacts.

Designed for both comfort and performance, the P1 features adjustable rear and shoulder straps, a breathable Lycra-lined interior, and a low-profile shape that fits seamlessly under your race suit without interfering with your seat or driving posture. Ideal for club and national-level karting, it offers trusted protection in a lightweight, race-ready package.
