ATV Helment Safety and Features

Always wear a helmet when riding an ATV. The decision to do so may save your life.
              Good, safe choices in a  quality ATV Helmet  should include:
       
  •        DOT approved
  •        Padded liner
  •         Poly alloy shells
  •      Sized properly
  •        Chin strap fitted
  •        Vented
Always purchase an ATV helmet with a DOT label on the back of the helmet. DOT sets the safety standards for crash protection.
A  Light shell made from thermoplastic poly alloy is usually best.  It is designed for comfort and won’t break or shatter on impact and will protect the skull more effectively.
The fit of the ATV helmet is the most important things to remember when purchasing one.    Venting is an added to  help air flow, keep you cooler and reduce noise.
        Some liners are made of nylon and are for comfort. Hypoallergenic are available.  When selecting a helmet chin straps and chin bars make sure that it is a snug fit to ensure it does it’s job.
All of the above  are  necessary when it comes to riding ATV’s safely.
