Snell SA2010 Rated HJC AR-10 II Helmet
Since 1971, HJC has specialized in manufacturing motorcycle helmets exclusively. The combination of their extensive specialized manufacturing experience, innovative ideas, and reasonable pricing resulted in HJC’s current line of automotive helmets, and the Snell SA2005 rated HJC AR-10 model is one of our personal favorites. Why? Because it happens to have features of helmets costing two or three times as much.
The AR-10's shell is made out of an advanced Fiberglass Composite Weave that results in a VERY lightweight helmet. In fact, it is the lightest fiberglass full face helmet we carry, weighing in at around 3lbs 10oz for a size Large. The AR-10 also features HJC's "ACS" Advanced Channeling Ventilation System which provides full front to back airflow to flush heat and humidity up and out of the helmet. This system consists of two adjustable vents on the top front of the helmet and two rear exhaust ports.
Inside the helmet, HJC used advanced CAD technology to help provide superior fit and comfort. The fire resistant Nomex liner is moisture-wicking, comfortable, and fully removable and washable. Optional cheek pad sets, and even the headliner, can be purchased separately.
The clear shield that comes standard on the AR-10 is a polycarbonate anti-fog and anti-scratch model that provides 95% UV protection. Optional R.S.T. shields are available in dark smoke, silver, and blue.
The fit and finish of all HJC helmets is top notch, and the gloss white paint on the AR-10 is beautiful. You will not find a better auto racing helmet on the market at this price point...period.
