Publishdate:2025-12-12 Views:12

FMVSS226 Headform Impactor

FMVSS 226 (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 226) is a regulation aimed at protecting occupants' heads during vehicle side crash. Its core testing equipment is a headform impactor, which is used to evaluate the protective capability of vehicle side windows during crash.

Physical specifications and performance requirements for the headform impactor: The impactor is a rigid, fully guided linear impact headform consisting of an aluminum head model with a mass of (18±0.05) kg and a surface covered with 11.4 mm thick head skin simulation material. During the test, the impactor impacts a preset target point on the side light-transmitting opening (such as a window) of the vehicle at a specific speed, and safety is evaluated by measuring head injury indicators. ‌
