BILTWELL’s replacement face shields are engineered from injection‑molded polycarbonate thermoplastic, a material chosen for its inherent scratch‑ and impact‑resistance. Each shield is secured to the helmet shell by a nickel‑plated stainless‑steel snap fastener, ensuring a reliable, quick‑install connection that maintains the helmet’s structural integrity.
The shields incorporate advanced optical features: colored models use in‑mold tint technology, while mirrored variants are finished with a reflective coating that comes in multiple surface finishes to mitigate glare. All colors and styles meet the AATCC‑138 standard, delivering 91 % UV/A and 99 % AV/B light resistance. An interior anti‑fog treatment combats moisture buildup from breathing and humidity, preserving clear visibility during extended use.
