Questions about the product Late medieval gorget with visor, 1.6mm steel

What is the approximate weight of this neck guard made of 1.6 mm steel, and is it suitable for full-contact stage combat (buhurt) due to its material thickness?

The approximate weight of this late medieval neck guard, made of 1.6 mm thick steel, is about 1.65 kg. Due to its thickness and rolled edges, it is generally suitable for staged combat, but at 1.6 mm, it does not meet the often-required minimum thickness of 2 mm for hard full-contact staged combat (buhurt).
What materials were used for the padding on the inside, and can the gorget be combined with other armor pieces such as a breastplate?

The late medieval gorget lacks integrated padding on the inside, so the use of a separate padded collar is recommended for comfortable wear. It is fastened with sturdy genuine leather straps, which can also be used to combine the gorget with other armor pieces such as a breastplate or to rest it on top of them.

This late medieval gorget is a detailed replica of a Gothic suit of armor from around 1495. The visor (beard) is movable and can be held securely in position by means of a small raised section on the right side, but it does not have any special ventilation slots.
What adjustment options does the neck brace's strap system offer for different neck circumferences, and how should the steel be cared for to protect it from corrosion?

The strap system features an adjustable leather strap with a buckle, allowing for individual adjustment of the collar size. To maintain and protect against corrosion, the non-stainless steel should be regularly rubbed with a suitable oil, such as Ballistol or gun oil.
