Meets or exceeds: DOT FMVSS-218. Constructed using thermo-plastic poly alloy. All AFX helmets are made out of the same material, the best grade of poly-alloy. This material is a polycarbonate mix with special cold weather additives and paint curing additives. All AFX helmets are high-pressure injection-molded with the mold part line removed and painted over. To ensure a long-lasting finish, we use multiple layers of paint with a super-hard UV-treated clear-coat finish. AFX helmets paint actually bonds to the helmet shell to provide a durable long-lasting finish. All of our face shields are compound-curved, hard-coated, and scratch-resistant with a special UV treatment to ensure years of use. Inside every AFX helmet we use plush-brushed hypoallergenic liners that are not only very comfortable, but also durable. Every helmet chinstrap is attached with high strength stainless steel rivets, and is secured with our own design straight edge d-ring. Helmets are designed with a removable liner system that use only stainless steel and... plastic snaps for durability and ease of cleaning. All AFX helmets with graphics are given a special UV treated clear-coat to protect the graphic from peeling off or fading. Aerodynamic shell design. Clear-coat finish protects helmet paint and graphics, and looks great. Recessed forehead and aerodynamic chin vents provide increased airflow and reduced wind noise. Outside adjustable side venturi air vents increase exhaust air flow. Flush-fit, quick-release side covers with single turn screw. Vented chin curtain. Molded thermal-formed breath guard.
