We thought this Chinese Helmet was Junk
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- After the disastrous results from our first test of UHMWPE Chinese ballistic helmet a couple of viewers suggested it might be faulty material or improper manufacturing methods.
So we found another random chinese company that makes their ballistic helmets from aramid fibers (similar to Kevlar).
The helmet was suspiciously light and thin so we assumed it was total junk.
We didn't expect anything but this helmet blew us away!
The performance was on par with some much much more expensive high end helmets.
In fact, Žiga was so impressed that we have decided to buy a batch of these helmets to offer them as a budget alternative alongside high end PGD line of professional helmets.
Yes, the straps suck but those can be easily replaced, but the helmet is solid.

That recoil on that 22LR this is ridiculously insane! be careful with your eyes with that round, very powerful!
I heard it's the most lethal - it bounces around in the body!
Almost as destructive as 9x19, which will blow the lungs right out of the body.
Not as powerful as the deadly, military grade AR-14; firing .50 caliber ammunition and as heavy as 10 boxes
@@JN-wn1kw Boxes, that you might be moving! Don't you forget about that.
Playing hatty sack over there boys? Quit fooling around fellow slavs lol e
My guy projecting much dad energy right now. I'm loving it.
I knew it would be a matter of time before the Chinese made one just as good for half the price as an American one waiting for some nods now to go from 40k to that $500

Honestly people gotta wake up to the fact that China isn’t the China of the early 2000s anymore, they make some pretty high quality stuff for the price now.
They won't, and unfortunately that's good for China.
Channels that says China is super weak is actually making people think China is weaker than they are.
For example with how unprepared Taiwan is.
China is a real threat
IT IS still the same with a lot of stuff! but not only, there is some decent stuff, that is really ok for Home Defence or Airsoft or such, but i wouldnt trust my life on a lot of things from China (Wish, Aliexpress etc.)
I am always against planning under the premise of Mainlanders being by default incompetent or uniformly-equipped with faulty weapons.
Granted, that'd get me cancelled in Taiwan. I'd be traitorous to not accept my people's status as God's Chosen Ones, ya know.
Chinese companies make things to the quality that is paid for, the idea that they only produce junk is absurd.
They produce junk for people that pay for junk, but they also make high quality products for people that pay for high quality too.
Honestly, people gotta wake up to the fact that you get what you pay for in every country. You can't expect a high quality product when you spend pennies on the dollar for a Chinese product. Just as you can't expect high quality product when you spend pennies on the dollar for a western product. Buy cheap, get cheap product, it's that simple. No matter which country that product came from.
Volodymyr Zelenski has a RUclips channel now?!
Zelensky has a much more gravelly voice,
@@kyosokutai yeah hey that's actually a very good point! I didn't realize it was actually Volodymyr Jr.! 🤣 Thank you for pointing that out!
Thanks for testing this Chinese Helmet. I hope in future you can do the Ballistic test for GK80 Steel helmet. When I watched the Footage of Rebel group in Myanmar, they used a lot of Chinese GK80 steel helmets along with modern aramid helmets.
Does China support rebels against the military dictatorship publicly or it's one of the under the table deals where they get to keep their non-interventionist agenda?
Not to mention surplus GK80 helmets within China are like $1 USD shipped lol. I myself own a JK96 helmet, basically steel PASGT. Apparently just as strong as the Gk80 Too.
Just because it’s made in China doesn’t mean it’s junk, it really depends on who’s making it. Just like everything else, you get what you pay for. Even in China, there are different price points for helmets.
Well there will alway fools who would laugh at anything.If you want quality you pay more and still cheaper tgan so called western one( btw they are Made in China)
idk why people are so biased against Chinese products. They make tons of quality stuff as long as you are willing to pay for it. Most people aren't so they usually produce acceptable quality stuff instead
Polenar is the absolute fucking GOAT
Aww, stop it, you're making me blush 😊
He truly is the best alter-ego persona of Zelensky by far.
Your social credit score has increased +10 points!
Bing chilling!
No one inside China ever heard of social credit. A creation by the westerns
Social credit isn’t for the civilian my man, it’s used for business mainly. Not sure where these insanely ridiculous negative narrative about China came from, but leave main stream media buddy, it’s all made up shit.
Actually the Chinese social score is pretty much a western narrative. When I visit China and I bring it up with my Chinese friends they have no idea of what I am talking about.
Surprised it survived that .22 LR bullet, not really into guns and stuff but judging by the recoil i can tell that it must be some kind of super powerful bullet
Lol
honestly props to him for not letting go of the gun
Yeah .22LR is what they use on Browning M2, I've seen this on RUclips.
Yeah! also fun fact this ammunition is the one used in the GAU-8 Avenger of the infamous A-10 Thunderbolt!

Oh my god, I actually recognized the chinese because I genuinely like that song (for the melody, not the dirty communism ^^)
Being fair to China, these days they do have a massive amount of high quality manufacturing, it's just that there's still a even more massive amount of shitty factories that produce super cheap junk. But i've been surprised over the years to have more and more stuff I buy from china actually be of decent or even great quality.
These days? Lol. You always get what you pay for. In China, you just pay less.
"cheap junk" you know the problem. People should stop bitching about quality if they ain't willing to spend the money for it. It's so simple.
Perfect now I can tell my LARP buddies how my helmet is real bulletproof!
nooo hursband, you have spent all our money on chinese hermets, now we will starve.
China is capable of making quality products, if you're willing to pay for it. Some high-end knives, for example, are made in China for Western corporations. They're not going to cost what a cheap Chinese knife costs as they are not cheaply made. Very much a "get what you pay for" type of thing.

chinese doesn't mean low, bad quality, you pay for what you get. 90% of importers want the cheapest possible option. Most iphones are built in china, so they are 'made in china'. There's a saying in china '一分钱一分货'.
This is a very well-done video--the sight gags were perfect! 😆
While it held up well, the helmet still looks a bit light for my comfort. While the permanent deformation wasn't great, those hits should still produce some hard knocks against the wearer's skull.
I can see this as a good bump helmet and mount of NODs, but for combat, I would prefer something heavier.
you kidding? might be my experience as a gunner on various armored cars/trucks, but i would take this any day over a big bulky helmet in the cramped ass turret space, especially since it looked like it passed the blunt force test, lol. and if you mean metal by heavier (you probably dont), have fun with the neck pain after a long week of sitting on your ass in a security assignment for some public favor event in bumfuck desert. i would absolutely take this over a heavy helmet. people with more boots on the ground might have differing opinions on this matter, but given i don't have said helmet available, i think i will stick with my cvc for now(not like i have a choice). i would also love to have that Chinese face shield, but it is not to be sadly.
@e9dz3ww6h Agreed! That's what I meant by 'bump helmet'; this looks like it would provide great head protection if you're being bounced around inside a vehicle.
1:53 Didn't know you had an elephant gun
Finish the test to see if it is actually lv 3a equivalent. .44 mag and .357.
Follows the arc of chinese industrial development.
First is just obsolete dogshit
Second is fraudulently “modern”
Third is okay but bizarre quirks or mistakes that make it inferior, unusable
Fourth is superior in every way at a fraction of the cost of the western version.

Nice Urgent Fury’s you are wearing! I see you’re a man of quality.
Damn that .22 kicks like a horse
it's super deadly
People who cry about Chinese quality are exposing how cheap they are. You get what you pay for. It's simple. Lol.
You can actually see the deformation at the moment of impact is larger than it is later on, something that happens with kevlar type fabrics and why they are tested in special high speed camera setups that can show the scale of deformation at moment of impact
Or clay. But yeah selling chinese balistic helmets based on quite unprofessional sample size 1 test is fishy
@@fil9o They just don’t understand how complicated ballistic testing is, I blame the firearms community who have done the shooting against a tree stump thing for years and claiming stuff works
Nice! Although I'd certainly love to see some further testing of this helmet.
Sure thing - what kind of testing would you like to see?
@@PolenarTactical Thanks for the reply!
I'm kinda curious what the helmet can really withstand. I don't expect it to be able to handle rifle rounds, but perhaps I'm wrong. It has held up nicely against 9x19 and 7.62x25.
Maybe it could catch an intermediate round or two and still save the imaginary user's head?
@@honzabalak3462 i doubt it would stop any proper rifle rounds, those are just too fast.
But it might stop .50 AE which has 300gn bullet with the same muzzle energy as 7.62 from an AK... at least the high end PGD helmet stopped it and the damage on the chinesium helmet seems comparable
Tell the public Manca is alive and her child is well.
I saw it go from 230 to 290 right when i was about to convince myself to buy it :(
China also have high end low end brands.
Yeah, no, they don't.
Everything they make is a half azzed interpretation of some design that was stolen from a legitimately designed item.

Now that china is producing their helmets for russian conscripts, they needed to up their game just a tad😂😂😂
How are these helmets performing better than the new British and American aramid ballistic helmets? The shell deformation on those military-issued designs tested with the same ammunition showed here are undoubtedly fatal to receive, what’s going on? 🤷♂️
The Chinese are overtaking the West, that's what's going on 🤣
Didn't see the tests on the new aramid helmets but i saw some tests on the HDPE helmets - High Densitiy PolyEthylene is stronger and better at stopping bullets than aramid fibers but the biggest problem with it is that it doesn't bond well with any glues or by itself. So when a bullet hits it, layers tend to delaminate easier thus creating bigger deformation.
Maybe the key would be an outer shell made from HDPE and inner shell from aramid fibers - but that would also be quite expensive to produce
@@PolenarTactical Garand Thumb made a video 9 months ago testing the U.S. army’s new IHPS helmet and the deformations that resulted from standard pistol calibers is pretty staggering compared to the company that produces these helmets y’all showcased, this Chinese company y’all partnered with is quite impressive. And similar issues arises with the British VIRTUS helmets, very lightweight helmets it seems with protection deficiencies.
Thank you for the response and input, I didn’t know HDPE was a stronger material.
@@Tax_Collector01 HDPE is currently the lightest, strongest and cheapest material to produce. It's used in ballistic plates and a lot of other applications but it seems that performance varies depending on the manufacturing process and bonding.
I checked and IHPS is also made from HDPE, that's probably why it shows increased deformation
@@PolenarTacticalUHMWPE is in helmets, HDPE is in milk jugs and plastic bags.
I think the delamination on UHMWPE is because the adhesive doesn't penetrate into the fabric the way it would with kevlar.
Some uhmwpe helmets are heated to stop the delamination...
After your review they'll probably switch to lower quality materials that only protect from small pebbles. That is, assuming this isn't already a paid ad.
Don't accuse my boy Polenar like that

Does it have any kind of V50 rating? My work revolves around testing ballistic helmets, I'd be really interested to see how this one performs in a STANAG shrapnel test.
That is the ideal version. But the mass produced version will be the cheap low quality helmets that they will sell to make profits from sp people who can't ask about the quality. Tricky business with tsina

use slowmo camera might be better for testing this kind of stuff.
10 years ago I shot holes in a Chinese steel copy of a pasgt helmet and 9mm went through like butter. Angles could force a ricochet but most went through. I'd imagine things have improved quite a bit since then though. Any kind of composite layering done well would be better than stamped steel.
Trust my noggin to a chinese made brain bucket? No thanks.
The helmet made by the Taiwan Army (UHMWPE helmet) is of poor quality close to Junk and appears to be a copy of the US "Helmet UHMWPE IIIA" in a shape.

It was always stupid to generalize things from China. You don't assume things made in Bulgaria and Germany would be same despite them because they're both being of European origin. The difference is China has more people, a larger economy and covers a larger region than the European Union.

I lived in China for 3 years. The only good products produced there were either under close supervision by a USA company (like the factory that produced Apple products) or locally owned places but they truly had a passion for what they did. This could be one of those rare instances.

my main concern in any products is product quality consistency: Analyzing one helmet is one thing but analyzing bigger samples shows how consistent their products are (or not). Chinese products can be good but I still recommend caution if it's a product that your life will depend on it.
