Safety Compliance & Maintenance
The Snell Foundation recommends replacing your racing helmet every five (5) years from the date of manufacture. To maintain the carbon fiber finish and structural resins, clean only with mild soap and water using a soft microfiber cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or chemicals that could degrade the clear coat or anti-fog visor treatment. Always check your specific sanctioning body's rulebook for safety compliance before racing.
