Stilo ST6 Offshore Composite Helmet SA2025 Stilo ST6 Offshore Composite SA2025: lighter, cooler, clearer For over 25 years, Stilo has led helmet innovation, and the new ST6 line moves the benchmark again. With development input from top-level programs, the ST6 brings refined front and top aerodynamics, expanded airflow, and a wider field of view to help you strap in faster and drive with more confidence. The ST6 Offshore Composite keeps weight down while adding ventilation and clarity where it matters. From the track-tested aero to the dual-lock visor mechanism, every update is about performance you can feel in the car. The ST6 improves on the beloved ST5 in these key areas: About 10% lighter than comparable ST5 models for reduced neck fatigue in long sessions Approximately 26% more airflow to manage heat during hot-weather stints Roughly 11% wider downward visibility for quicker belts and better cockpit awareness Refined liner and cheek pads for stability at speed and all-day comfort Expanded shell size range to optimize weight and fit Re-engineered visor for durability and easy care with a washable anti-fog treatment Updated visor hardware for smoother actuation and easy swaps Stilo ST6 GT Composite Offshore Racing Helmet Features Puro Tech: Stilo’s composite process minimizes excess coatings to keep mass low without compromising protection.

Have an assistant measure the circumference of your head about an inch above the eyebrows, around the largest point at the back, and back to the front. Take multiple measurements and use the largest. What’s Changing in SA2025 Auto Racing Helmets? SA2025 helmets are here, and while the changes may not be groundbreaking, they represent an important evolution in motorsport safety. According to the Snell Memorial Foundation, the SA2025 standard is an evolutionary update from SA2020—not a complete overhaul. Unlike the M2025 motorcycle standard, which adds rotational impact testing, the SA2025 auto racing helmet standard does not include rotational force requirements. Key SA2025 Helmet Safety Enhancements: Increased Impact Protection: SA2025 helmets are required to handle slightly higher impact speeds and achieve lower maximum peak G-force thresholds across all head-form sizes. Global FIA Alignment: These updated requirements bring the SA2025 standard into alignment with the new FIA 8859-2024 helmet safety regulation, creating more consistency across international motorsports. In short: SA2025 helmets are designed to offer enhanced linear impact protection, making them the safest Snell-rated auto racing helmets to date.

No, the ST6 uses its own shield system; choose ST6-specific shields and hardware. How should I pick my size? Measure head circumference and consult the size chart; if you’re between sizes, many drivers prefer the tighter option for stability at speed. Is the visor anti-fog? Yes, the ST6 visor includes a washable, high-performance anti-fog treatment. This helmet ships signature required.

It is made from a Kevlar Multi-Sandwich Fiber composite formed in an autoclave. It carries the same Snell SA2020 certification as the Carbon helmet, but the different material adds the weight. This different material yields a slightly heavier helmet, but at a reduced cost. The Snell SA2020 rating satisfies almost all racing sanctioning bodies’ requirements for helmet certifications.Available with integrated electronics, top- or side-forced air supply, hydration, or any combination of the three, this helmet offers flexibility while maintaining a clean cabin. There are no wires or hoses hanging down below the helmet – everything integrates seamlessly with the shell of the helmet.Features an M6 nut integrated into the shell to interface with Head and Neck Restraint Systems.All Stilo shields are treated with an anti-fog treatment and they do require special care. The best result we have by far is the Stilo Visor cleaner. Liberally spray the outside of the visor with the cleaner, and wipe in a single swipe with a microfiber towel until clean and dry. If fingerprints or dirt remain, repeat as needed. A back and forth wiping motion will tend to leave lint from the rag on the visor, so the single-pass works best. Repeat if necessary, but usually, one pass works great.Do not use Windex or any glass cleaner containing ammonia, as this can harm the anti-scratch coating on the outside of the visor, and the anti-fog coating on the inside of the visor. Note: There are many things we can do to adjust your helmet fit. Obviously the best thing is to come into our show room and try on the helmets, but many times, that is just not possible. One of the great things about Stilo helmets is the adjustability with helmet padding. Crown padding, Cheek padding and different ear muff sizes are all available. Please contact a DiscoveryParts helmet expert at 888-748-7223. Size Note: We have found that customers who typically wear a size 59 helmet are most comfortable in size 60, which uses the large shell.
