II. Core Selling Points Breakdown (Highlight Value by Dimension)

1. Top-Tier Protective Performance, Competition Safety Guarantee

- The protection level reaches 1600NW, and the mask bib can withstand a puncture force of over 1600 Newtons, far exceeding the standards of basic training equipment, effectively resisting sabre slashes and impacts.

- Adopting a high-density stainless steel mesh shell, it has passed strict puncture tests and impact tests. The mesh is fine and elastic, not easy to deform, providing all-round protection for key areas of the face, head, and neck.

- Compliant with FIE standards and certified by professional laboratories, it can be directly used in various domestic and international sabre competitions.

2. Sabre-Specific Design, Adapted to Electronic Scoring

- The full-face mask is made of conductive material, perfectly matching the sabre rule that "the head and the torso above the waist are valid targets", ensuring the electronic scoring system accurately identifies valid hits.

- The curvature of the bib fits the neck line, which not only enhances protective coverage but also does not affect large-range movements such as turning the head and swinging the sword, adapting to the high-speed confrontation characteristics of sabre fencing.

3. Comfortable and Durable Configuration, Suitable for Long-Term Use

- Built-in detachable and washable liner, made of breathable and skin-friendly fabric, supports hand washing for easy cleaning, maintains wearing hygiene, and avoids odor buildup during long-term training.

- Thickened buffer foam is equipped on the head and chin, and an additional PVC reinforcement layer is added on the forehead to disperse impact pressure and reduce the sense of oppression during long-term wearing.

- Dual shoulder strap adjustment system allows flexible adjustment of tightness, combined with an adjustable head circumference design (available in S/M/L/XL sizes), suitable for different head shapes, ensuring a stable and non-shaking fit.

4. Exquisite Craftsmanship, Long-Term Reliability

- Crafted with advanced technology, the shell and accessories are tightly connected, resistant to wear and corrosion, extending the product service life.

- The metal mesh surface is matte-treated to avoid light reflection interfering with vision during training and competitions, ensuring clear vision.

III. Summary of Target Audience and Scenarios

- Target Audience: Professional sabre fencers, senior fencing enthusiasts, competition-preparing fencers, and training equipment for high-end fencing clubs.

- Core Scenarios: International/domestic sabre competitions, high-intensity confrontation training, and HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts) related training.

V. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

- Q: Does this 1600NW sabre mask comply with international competition standards? Can it be used in FIE-certified competitions?

A: Yes, it does. This product has passed FIE (Fédération Internationale d'Escrime) and CEN Level 2 certification, with a protection level of 1600NW. It can be directly used in various official domestic and international sabre competitions and professional-level confrontation activities, providing full guarantee for competition compliance.

- Q: Will the conductive material of the mask affect wearing safety? What should be noted in daily use?

A: No, it will not affect safety. The conductive material of the mask is specially designed for the sabre electronic scoring system, only used to accurately identify valid hits. Its electrical performance has passed strict safety tests and complies with fencing protective gear safety standards. In daily use, avoid scratching the conductive layer with sharp objects and store it away from humid environments to prevent the conductive performance from being affected.

- Q: How often is it recommended to clean the detachable and washable liner? What are the cleaning precautions?

A: It is recommended to clean according to the frequency of use. For high-frequency training (3 times a week or more), clean once a week; for daily training, clean once every 2-3 weeks. When cleaning, completely remove the liner, hand wash with neutral detergent, avoid using bleach or strong detergents; air dry naturally after cleaning, do not expose to direct sunlight to prevent fabric deformation or loss of breathability.

- Q: How to accurately choose among the four sizes S/M/L/XL? Should I choose a larger or smaller size when the head circumference is at the critical value?

A: You can measure the head circumference with a soft tape measure from the upper edge of the eyebrow arch to the prominent part of the occipital bone at the back of the head to choose the size: Size S fits head circumference 54-58cm, Size M fits 58-62cm, Size L fits 62-66cm, and Size XL fits 66-70cm. If the head circumference is at the critical value (e.g., 58cm), it is recommended to choose one size larger. The dual shoulder strap adjustment system can be flexibly fine-tuned for tightness, ensuring a more comfortable fit and avoiding unusability when the head circumference increases slightly.

- Q: Is this mask suitable for HEMA projects? What is the difference from ordinary sabre training masks?

A: Yes, it is suitable for HEMA-related training. The difference is that this product has a protection level of 1600NW, with a more comprehensive bib coverage and higher mesh shell strength, which can better resist high-intensity impacts that may occur in HEMA projects; at the same time, the matte mesh surface design can avoid light reflection interference, adapting to HEMA training needs in outdoor or complex light environments.

- Q: What is the general service life of the mask? In which cases does it need to be replaced?

A: Under normal use conditions, the service life can reach 1-2 years (it is recommended to replace it every year for high-frequency competition/training scenarios). It needs to be replaced in a timely manner when the following situations occur: the mesh shell is deformed, cracked, or the mesh holes become larger; the conductive layer is damaged, leading to inaccurate electronic scoring; the liner fabric is severely worn, loses elasticity, or cannot be completely cleaned to remove odors; the buffer foam collapses, resulting in obvious oppression during wearing.
