Arai Vas-z Pro Shade Helmet Sun Protector Screen Mechanism Kit 55031051

ARAI VAS-Z Pro Shade Helmet Sun Protector Screen Mechanism KitCategory: HelmetsSubcategory: Accessories and partsUpgrade your Arai open-face helmet with the revolutionary VAS-Z Pro Shade System, the ultimate all-weather solution for riders seeking unparalleled convenience, safety, and optical clarity. This complete mechanism kit is engineered not just as a sun visor, but as an integral performance and safety enhancement for your Arai helmet, reflecting the brand´s unwavering commitment to rider protection.Experience All-Weather Versatility and Instant AdaptationThe Pro Shade System brilliantly addresses the challenge of changing light conditions without compromising safety. Unlike internal sun visors that require a thinner, potentially weaker EPS liner, the Pro Shade is an external system. This intelligent design ensures the structural integrity and impact-absorption capability of your helmet´s shell remains completely intact. With a simple flick of your hand, you can instantly lower the tinted sun screen to cut through harsh glare and sunlight. When entering a tunnel or as dusk falls, just as easily flip it up to revert to the main clear visor. When raised, the Pro Shade also functions as an effective aerodynamic peak, reducing overhead sun glare without obstructing your field of vision.Advanced Engineering: The VAS-Z AdvantageThis kit is built upon Arai´s groundbreaking VAS (Variable Axis System) technology, a cornerstone of modern Arai helmet design focused on enhancing real-world protection. With VAS, the visor mounting position is lowered, yielding an average of an additional 14mm across both temple areas, in pursuit of the ideal smoother shape that increases the ability of glancing off energy. As a result, this has made it possible for more of the shell to be smoother along and above the test line of the Snell standard. This smoother, rounder, and stronger shell shape is fundamental to Arai´s philosophy, as it improves the helmet´s capacity to slide over surfaces and glance off obstacles during an impact, minimizing the direct transfer of energy to the rider.Key Benefits & Main Features:* Uncompromised Safety: The external design maintains the full thickness of the helmet´s EPS liner and the structural integrity of the shell, adhering to Arai´s rigorous safety standards.* Instantaneous Adaptation: Effortlessly switch between a tinted sun shield and a clear view, providing immediate response to changing light for a safer and more comfortable ride.* Dual-Purpose Functionality: Functions as a lockable, anti-glare sun screen when down and a helmet peak to reduce overhead glare when in the up position.* Reduced Wind Noise: The aerodynamic design is engineered to minimize wind noise and turbulence, whether the shield is in the up or down position.* Easy Operation: Designed for intuitive, single-handed use, even while wearing gloves, allowing you to stay focused on the road.Technical Specifications* Attribute: Mechanisms* System Type: Arai
