Tech-Air® 5 PLASMA Airbag System Designed to meet the evolving demands of modern motorcycling safety, the innovative and ultra-lightweight Tech-Air® 5 PLASMA Airbag System is engineered to fit seamlessly under a jacket, ensuring a supremely comfortable and adaptive fit. The System’s ultra-slim profile delivers an “invisible under the jacket” feel, offering unrestricted movement while providing advanced protection for an enhanced riding experience.

Built upon Alpinestars' industry-leading protective technology, the Tech-Air® 5 PLASMA Airbag System is the latest evolution in the Alpinestars Tech-Air® family. Engineered for ultra-lightweight performance, superior comfort, and an ‘invisible’ fit, the state-of-the-art Tech-Air® 5 PLASMA System provides comprehensive upper body coverage—including the chest, ribs, back, and shoulders—while featuring a PLASMA back protector for the optimal blend of comfort, flexibility, airflow, and rider protection. With a newly developed algorithm supporting three distinct Riding Modes—STREET, OFF-ROAD, and RACE—the Tech-Air® 5 PLASMA is a single-charge deployment Airbag System with a user-replaceable gas canister for continued protection on every ride

TECH SPECS

  • Lightest Tech-Air® ever at just 3.37 lbs (1530g)
  • Invisible under-jacket design for supreme comfort 
  • Stretch chassis construction with moisture-wicking treatment 
  • Integrated eco-friendly Nucleon Plasma back protector 
  • Stretch mesh chassis contours to body and airbag shape 
  • New single canister system for quick inflation and easy servicing

KEY FEATURES

  • Upper-body impact zone coverage: extends protection across critical torso areas to help reduce injury risk during a crash.
  • Ultra-lightweight chassis (approx. 1,530 g): reduces bulk and rider fatigue; more than 25% lighter than the Tech-Air® 5 for enhanced comfort.
  • Ultra-slim under-jacket profile: delivers an “invisible” fit that moves naturally and doesn’t restrict movement.
  • Breathable, moisture-managed fit: stretch materials and wicking treatment help keep you cool and comfortable on every ride.
  • PLASMA back‑protector technology: balances impact absorption with flexibility and ventilation for everyday comfort.
  • Mono-layer stretch mesh integration: contours to the airbag to minimize bulk and maximize airflow.
  • Single‑canister inflator: reduces weight and enables faster inflation for responsive protection.
  • Quick‑release service cover: allows user‑replaceable gas inflator (where legally permitted) for rapid turnaround after a deployment.
  • Modular system design: simplifies use and servicing for ongoing protection.
  • Extended battery life: provides up to 30 hours of ride time per charge.
  • Expanded size range: eight sizes (XS–4XL) for a tailored, inclusive fit.
  • Three Riding Modes with LED control: STREET, OFF‑ROAD, and RACE; switch modes by pressing the LED Display button for 2 seconds with a vibration confirmation.
  • LED/haptic status alerts and auto activation: clear visual/vibration feedback and automatic arming when zipped via the internal magnetic sensor on the Tech-Air® 5 PLASMA Airbag System.

PROTECTION

  • Active Protection: The airbag provides comprehensive full upper-body coverage, safeguarding the chest, ribs, back, and shoulders.
  • Integrated Back Protector: Integrated Nucleon PLASMA back protector positioned to reinforce full-back impact protection and complement the airbag’s coverage.
  • Stealth Back Protector Design: Back protector contours to the electronics case to maintain continuous protective coverage and secure integration within the system.
  • CE-Certified Protection:
  • The Tech-Air® 5 PLASMA Airbag System and all included protective parts are Category II certified PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) under European Regulation (UE) 2016/425 and in compliance under corresponding UK legislation.
  • The passive back protector is CE certified according to EN 1621-2:2014 Level 1 (Full Back).
  • The inflatable protector is CE certified according to EN 1621-4:2013 Level 1 (Full Back).
  • The system is CE certified as a protective garment for motorcycle riders according to EN 17092-6:2020 as a Class C undergarment.
  • Airbag Deployments: The airbag is certified for up to six deployments before requiring replacement.

CONSTRUCTION

  • Ultra-thin mono-layer stretch mesh chassis at the collar, underarms, and front panels for low material mass and high airflow.
  • Ergonomic sleeve pattern with a deeper underarm cut to reduce material stacking and seam bulk.
  • Extended rear hem and contoured, low-cut neckline to increase coverage while minimizing edge-to-skin contact.
  • Chassis engineered to align with Alpinestars jacket ventilation channels, ensuring direct vent path through mesh zones.
  • Anatomically contoured airbag bladder with strategically positioned cutaways to expand the protection envelope across the back, chest, ribs, and shoulders while controlling overall volume.
  • Integrated Nucleon PLASMA back protector constructed from a viscoelastic compound co-injected with elastomer compounds for a slim, flexible, ventilated structure.
  • Minimal use of plastic components to achieve a low weight-to-performance ratio and maintain free airflow within the chassis.
  • System weight: 1,530 g.
