About Windshield Angles
Windshield shear angles perform best somewhere between 45° and 60° from a straight 90° as measured from the hood plane. Our Spin4Air Windshield is engineered to fall within those 2 sweet spots in the range of travel. The beauty of the Spin4Air Windshield engineering is that there is NO NEED TO STOP the vehicle to make a blade adjustment!
Bragging Rights
The Spin4Air Windshield system is FULLY intended to be adjusted while in motion after proper installation unlike our competitors. There is no reason to pull over out of the way of traffic and come to a complete stop to make an experimental adjustment to your blade, only to have to stop again because of a poorly guessed adjustment. Get real-time sense-able airflow adjustments to cockpit occupants while you enjoy riding!! The Spin4Air Windshield system raises the blade up off the hood-line from 0.0 to almost 4 inches which allows for easily adjusted airflow to cool off riders on those hot windless days. Get back some of that wind-in-your-face feeling you lost with your Fixed Blade Windshield!!
Materials
Polycarbonate is the plastic sheet used when safety and security plastics are required. Polycarbonate is renowned for its high impact strength; it has 250 times the impact strength of glass and 30 times that of acrylic. This system is designed to be mounted on a motorcycle…you’d much rather have the material Police use for Riot Shields than worry about an insignificant 3% clarity factor. Our ¼ inch thick shields are literally Debris Proof; try that with an Acrylic shield!! The center support for the Spin4Air Shield is manufactured using 3/8 inch Polycarbonate sheet which boasts a 9000 PSI impact resistance.
