Arai Helmets – Corsair-X Helmet – Isle of Man TT 2023

• Features intermediate oval shape which fits the majority of head shapes in the North American markets
• Super Fiber and special synthetic reinforcing fibers allows for a stronger, yet lighter shell with excellent Glancing Off properties
• The addition of the internal Structural net and Peripheral Belt further strengthens the shell with minimal increase to weight or thickness
• Internal Air Channel €” Improved ventilation with an enhanced air extraction system, pulling hot/moist air from the eye port area through ducted channels behind the cheek pads that exhaust out the side cowl vents, keeping the rider cool and helping to reduce fogging
• PB-SNC2 Shell €” Z Resin developed and blended in-house, bonds the many layers and materials of the shell more securely using less resin, improving shell strength as well as reducing weight
• Shield Latch €” The Variable Axis System (VAS) latch captures and securely holds the shield closed to help resist unexpected opening
• VAS Shield Mechanism €” By combining the pin trajectory with the two trajectories of the double pivot point slot, the shield opens and closes smoothly even with the much lower shield mount position
• Larger latch allows for intuitive and seamless shield operation, even with heavy gloves
• Dual-function lever releases both the side cover/pod and shield pin for quick and simple shield removal
• Vents are lightly mounted to remain frangible and easily come off in an impact so as not to snag on obstacles or cause excess rotational force
• Shield has a positive stop to resist unintentional opening, even in the de-mist position, but with a slight pull on the lift tab to clear this stop the shield simply lifts with ease
• IC Duct5 €” Uses a three-position slide gate to improve sealing for reduced noise and water intrusion
