All Helmets

Race-Legal Helmets for Desert, Dunes & Dirt

You can’t shortcut head protection. Every helmet in the Helmets Collection meets or exceeds the latest SA2020 or FIA 8859-2015 standards, is pre-drilled for HANS anchors, and ships ready for desert comms and hydration add-ons. From feather-light carbon rally shells to budget-friendly composite lids for short-course UTVs, Baja Racing Gear curates the best models from Impact®, Stilo®, Pyrotect®, HJC®, and PCI®.

Flagship Models

• Impact Air Draft Carbon – Spherical weave carbon shell, 2.9 lb in Medium, top-forced air inlet, and integrated chin skirt.
• Stilo ST5.1 R WRC DES – FIA 8859, built-in earcup recess, hydration side port, and magnetic quick-release visor.
• Pyrotect ProAirflow Composite – Kevlar-reinforced tri-weave, six-port intake manifold, and replaceable cheek pads.
• HJC DS-X1 Rally – Dual-sport peak + shield combo, speaker cut-outs, and wide eye-port for large goggles.
• PCI Race Radios Carbon SXS – Factory-wired for Nexus 4-pin, Kevlar boom mic, and anti-fog double-pane shield.

Why These Helmets Win in Baja

Multi-density EPS absorbs both low-speed roll-overs and high-G rock impacts. Fire-retardant comfort liners wick sweat yet self-extinguish above 700 °C. Impact’s Shell Shock gel-ekinetic coating disperses energy across a wider area, while Stilo’s Floating Earcup design reduces driver fatigue by 3 dB at 100 mph.

Comms & Hydration Ready

Most models feature pre-molded cavities for 32 mm speakers, boom-mic grommets, and left/right hydration bulkhead flats. Add our Helmet Wiring Kits and Hydration Port Kits for a plug-and-play cockpit.

Pro Setup Tips

1. Heat the visor hinge five seconds with a heat gun to seat the O-ring—no fogging on sunrise start.
2. Install a 30 mm cheek pad on radio-boom side and 25 mm opposite for perfect mic positioning.
3. Swap stock shield screws for our titanium kit to drop 35 g at the very top of your CG.

When to Replace

A helmet should be retired after any shell-flexing impact or five years of race duty. All models here carry production dates ≤ 24 months old, giving you a full lifecycle before the next standard update.
