The RaceQuip SA-2010 Full Face helmet is an all new design that
incorporates prepreg construction based on steel tooling. In this
process, the optimum ratio of resin is impregnated into the
composite fabric (a combination of carbon fiber, kevlar, and FRP)
prior to moulding. Next, the prepreg is forced into the steel mould
using vacuum pressure, then oven cured to precise thermal specifications.
This manufacturing technique eliminates excess resin weight and ensures
uniform shell thickness while leaving the outer surface smooth and
blemish free. The shell is then mated to an expanded polystyrene (EPS)
liner to create a modern lightweight helmet design.
The RaceQuip Snell SA-2010 Full Face helmet is loaded with many features
you would expect to find in a helmet costing much more. These features
include a lightweight composite shell, aluminum pivot kit with an adjustable
friction lock, plus a silicone shield gasket to keep out dust and dirt. A wide
eyeport provides great peripheral vision and allows for the use of personal eyewear.
The distortion free low fog polycarbonate face shield is a full 3mm thick and comes
with eight position, hand ratcheting tear-off posts. Of course the SA spec means
that both the helmet’s paint and interior are fire retardant so the RaceQuip Full
Face helmet is suitable for use in the highest forms of auto racing competition.
The RaceQuip SA-2010 Full Face helmet incorporates a Kevlar® chin strap for strength,
a comfort fit blended Nomex® interior for great feel, and pre-drilled holes for
easier installation of head & neck restraint anchors. Wrap all these features in
a lightweight aero design composite shell and the result is the outstanding value
delivered by the RaceQuip SA-2010 Full Face helmet.
Snell SA-2010 Helmet Information
The Snell Memorial Foundation has changed the SA helmet testing procedures to more
accurately account for the size and weight of the driver’s head. It is also important
to note that the specifications between an SA (auto racing) helmet and an M (motorcycle)
helmet have become more divergent, which is why RaceQuip will only offer SA rated helmets
for use in auto racing even though some sanctions or tracks may still allow use of an M
rated helmet.The SA-2010 design changes have allowed us to re-tool in order to produce
our helmets with a more modern production method. Ultimately the RaceQuip SA-2010 spec
helmets will be lighter than previous models, have better fit and finish, and also have
provisions for installation of a head and neck restraint. Most series, sanctions, and
race tracks allow use of a helmet that goes back at least one Snell cycle and many allow
two Snell cycles. Upon release of the 2010 models, most racers will be required to use a
Snell SA-2000 or newer or an SA-2005 or newer helmet, depending on your rules.
*NOTE: RaceQuip Helmets use a standard banana-shaped tear-off
#1202.*
