Go-karting is an adrenaline-filled sport that attracts enthusiasts of all ages. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced go-kart driver, safety is always a top priority. The most important part of your safety equipment is your go-kart helmet. Discover why you should invest in a high-quality go-kart helmet and what to look for when choosing one:
Why is a Go-Kart Helmet so Important?
A go-kart helmet is essential for your safety. During a go-kart race or practice-driving, you may be exposed to high speeds and potential collisions. A helmet protects your head & brain from injury and reduces the risk of serious consequences in the event of an accident. In addition to this, helmets and visors protect your eyes/face and reduce the risk of stone chips and other injuries.
What should you consider when choosing a Gokart Helmet?
Safety: Prioritize helmets that are certified according to safety standards such as CIK FIA / CIK CMR. These standards ensure that the helmet has undergone rigorous testing to ensure its effectiveness.
If the driver is under 15 years old, a CIK-FIA approved go-kart helmet must be used in all competition and training.
Our most popular go-kart helmet is the Arai CK-6 and in my experience it has the best quality and fit. - But our go-kart helmets from Bell and Sparco are also very popular & high quality.
Fitment:
A helmet should fit snugly and comfortably on your head, people often mistakenly choose a helmet/size that is too large for your head. The helmet should fit really tight and squeeze your cheeks a little. However, it is important that you feel that the helmet is in contact with the entire head, and not just pressing on the forehead/neck or the temples.
There is quite a difference in shape between the different manufacturers, it is not uncommon for a go-kart helmet from Arai to fit you much better than one from Sparco, or vice versa.
If you haven't worn a helmet before, you should try a few different brands to find one that fits your head shape best.
For most helmets it is possible to buy cheek pads in different sizes separately, this allows you to "enlarge" the helmet if you grow and it becomes too tight - a cheaper alternative to buying a new karting helmet!
All gokart helmets approved by the CIK FIA / CMR have a buckle of the DD model, which is the safest buckle.
Ventilation: Demanding racing makes you warm and sweaty even on cold days - Choose a helmet with a good ventilation system that provides airflow to prevent overheating.
Materials and Construction:
Most go-kart helmets are made of a composite material (Mixture between Plastic/Glass fiber/Carbon fiber/Kevlar). These composite helmets are the safest choice for go-karting, as they deform/crack in an accident, instead of bouncing/springing back like 100% plastic material helmets can do.
Design and Style: In addition to safety and comfort, it is important that you feel comfortable and confident in your helmet. Choose a design and colour that suits your personal style.
It is also popular to paint your go-kart helmet with a motif, it can be done on all our models except Junior Helmet LS2, and costs about 300-1000€ depending on the design you choose.
