Check out the G-FORCE Racing Gear helmets quality and features and see how our quality and features blow the competition away. Snell SA2000 - M2000: Our customers have asked what the difference is between a Snell SA2000 and M2000 certification for a helmet. All Snell tests for these specifications include multiple impact tests at -20 degrees, 78 degrees (dry and wet) and 120 degrees. The Snell M2000 specification is the base for the specs. The SA2000 - used primarily for auto racing - adds not only the thicker shield, but also the use of flame retardant paint, trim, retention strap and interior. The Snell SA2000 helmet also meets an additional rollbar impact test. Composite Z38 lightweight shell: Made from a Kevlar/Fiberglass composite with a specially designed resin. This means less weight on your shoulders and less energy spent holding your head up. Reinforced mounting points: G-FORCE Racing Gear was the first ever to have special reinforced mounting points for a helmet restraint system built into the helmet. High Quality Paint finishes: The paint finish on the G-FORCE Racing Gear helmets outshines our competitors. Every helmet receives multiple coats of paint and clearcoat. Every coat is hand sanded and the top coat is buffed to a show car finish. Our extra attention to this detail gives our customers a helmet that better withstands the punishment a race environment can dish out. Hi-tech G-78 impact liner: Provides superior impact resistance compared to the liners used by our competitors. G-Flow Ventilation: Our helmets have a well-engineered ventilation system for maximum driver comfort. Together with Fresh Air Systems Technologies® we designed the Force Air helmet for excellent air flow right out of the box. Room for eyeglasses: Our R & D team designed eyeports to accept glasses in our new comfort fit system. No more wadding up those wire frame glasses or peeling off your skin inserting glasses into the helmet. This new system really works great. CoolTec Fire-Retardant Interior: This material used in our SA helmets provides unequaled protection for the driver. CoolTec is a new flame-retardant material that is soft and hypoallergenic to the skin and outperforms most other products. Optically Correct Molded Shield with scratch-resistant S231 coating: We went to the added cost of using a very expensive mirror polished mold to produce our shields. Most manufacturers cut theirs out of a sheet, lay it on a form in an oven in order to bend it to fit their helmet. Have you ever bent a sheet of plastic and noticed how it distorts your view? G-FORCE Racing Gear went to the expense of a mold so you could have a clear view on the track. All of our shields are coated with a top-of-the-line scratch resistant coating. Thick shield for protection: We were the first manufacturer to include, at no extra charge, the same thick shield required on Snell SA-rated helmets on all of our Snell M-rated helmets. The competition uses thinner shields on their M-rated helmets. SpeedFit shield: G-FORCE Racing Gear was the first to develop the SpeedFit shield for SA-rated auto racing helmets. This new design allows the shield to be changed in a matter of seconds without the use of any tools. Breath Deflector: G-FORCE Racing Gear has engineered a unique breath deflector for our helmets. It helps to keep your shield fog free and is easily removed for cleaning. This helps give the driver a clear view, even on humid days and evenings. Most helmet manufactures sell a breath deflector as an expensive option and others do not even offer one. It is standard on all of the G-FORCE Racing Gear full-face helmets. |
