CONCEPT &
FUNCTUIONALITY
Named HALO™, the structure is a High Attenuation Load Offset device. When attached to a production vehicle roof along with internal reinforcements, the HALO ROPS reduces the speed and amount of crush in the roof structure, when the vehicle experiences a rollover crash. The HALO ROPS is equipped to prevent catastrophic and fatal injuries to the occupants that might occur without it.

PATENTED & CERTIFIED TECHNOLOGY
-
The external roll hoop maintains the vehicle’s roll radius characteristic, allowing the vehicle body to roll more smoothly, minimizing forces on the occupants.
​
-
It also distributes the roof loads across the entire roof structure and underlying pillars to avoid a single point collapse.
-
The reinforcements minimize roof intrusion and speed at top of the structural pillars which keeps the roof up and away from the occupants.

WE'VE TESTED IT
The following video is a comparative test performed by Safety Engineering International on the Jordan Rollover System, which simulates a pitched rollover accident. This test allows the measuring of the impact, speed and forces in one isolated roll to determine the effects of the rollover on the vehicle and its occupants with and without HALO ROPS.
