Arai GP-7SRC 8860-2018

The new Arai GP-7SRC Carbon Fiber 8860-2018 auto racing helmet is a stunning example of Arai’s vision and technological mastery, engineered into a functional, real-world piece of safety equipment. It begins with a startling advancement: a proprietary carbon fiber weave that combines its existing properties of high strength and extreme light weight.

Arai's proprietary carbon fiber has a property that standard carbon fiber does not possess: flexibility. (Standard carbon fiber tends to splinter or shatter instead of flex on impact.) The result is a helmet ready for the unparalleled demands and requirements of high end closed-cockpit racing. The remaining list of Arai GP-7SRC features and advances is impressive because, for this helmet and its prospective user, it simply has to be. The Arai GP-7SRC carbon fiber auto racing helmet meets or exceeds the latest FIA 8860-2018 homologation standards. 

Ventilation Is Strong in the Arai GP-7SRC Carbon

Excellent ventilation in the Arai GP-7 ABP superior air flow cooling

Large, closable intake vents combined with a 10mm vent greatly increase air intake. Larger 10mm rear vent hole increases air flow further compared to previous models.

Arai's Innovative Positive Shield Latch

Positive latch mechanism provides solid shield latching while allowing normal operation of the shield. Designed to be an integral component of the shield system, not just an add-on afterthought. Simplicity of the function belies the complexity of the design.

Integrated HANS Post Anchors

Integrated seats to accommodate a variety of Head and Neck Restraint devices. Pre-installed M6 threaded washer/nut with 6mm threads accepst a variety of anchor systems, making installation much easier. Flat surface area around the mounting nut allows the anchor post base to rest flush with the helmet surface.

Proprietary Carbon Fiber Shell Construction

Proprietary carbon fiber material and weave provide an extremely strong yet flexible material, helping manage impact energy. Multiple reinforcing materials are used to improve performance and keep weight and size to a minimum.

Eject-Ready Crown Pad Integrates Exceptional Safety

A pre-cut pocket under the crown pad can be easily removed to accommodate the optional eject system.

Extremely Flexible Drink Tube Compatibility

The GP-7SRC chin liner is easily removed to install a drink tube into the liner. The chin liner comes standard with four different drink hose placements.

Add a Helmet bag to keep your new Arai GP-7SRC Carbon Fiber helmet safe and secure throughout every race weekend.

 

Getting The Best Fit for Your Arai GP-7SRC Carbon

The Arai GP-7SRC 8860-2018 is available in sizes XS to Large. The most effective helmet is one that fits properly. To measure your head, have an assistant use a dressmaker's tape or a piece of string to measure the circumference of your head. Start at a point about an inch above your eyebrows, looping around the back of your head at the point that results in the largest measurement, and finally around to the front again. It's a good idea to take two or three measurements to make sure you have the largest one.

This helmet will ship with signature required for delivery.
