ZetaLiner® Helmet Liner
The Oregon Aero ZetaLiner® was designed for maximum comfort, protection, and helmet stability. Self-wicking outer fabric dissipates perspiration keeping your head cooler and drier. The ZetaLiner Helmet Liner is easy to fit, install, maintain, and is equally effective while wearing Night Vision or other externally mounted equipment.
Step 1: Choose Your ZetaLiner Liner Length
Use this guide and the tables below to determine which size ZetaLiner Helmet Liner is right for you. Measure the inside of your helmet from front to back—down through the bowl—as shown in the photo. Make a note of this measurement, then follow Step 2 to determine the liner thickness you need.
Step 2: Choose Your ZetaLiner Thickness
The ZetaLiner Helmet Liner is available in four thicknesses: 1/4", 3/8", 1/2" and 5/8". The most common thickness we sell is 3/8". To determine the correct thickness liner for your helmet, refer to the thickness table below.
NOTE: If your TPL® (Thermo Plastic Liner) has been heated and fitted, you will probably need a ZetaLiner Helmet Liner one thickness thinner than listed below.

|---|---|
| 2 Layers | 1/4" Liner |
| 3 Layers | 3/8" Liner |

Once you have found the length and thickness you need can be selected from the ZetaLiner Size tables below.

“The extraneous noise damping properties of the ear cups were incredible.”
“I could tell my (helmet) shell was not sliding around my head as I cranked my neck around to check six like it usually does.”
“Quick and easy installation/modification time. My PR learned in one hour how to do the mod and completed one on his own in 15 minutes from start to finish.”
“The Oregon Aero® ZetaLiner® (Helmet Liner) and Ear Cups may be one of the best ‘finds’ of this program.”
“I am not feeling the weight at all, not feeling a tug trying to rotate my head….I don’t even notice it’s on (during high performance, high-G maneuvers).”
“I experienced no fatigue, neck pain, loss of mobility, or change in G-tolerance while wearing the helmet.”
“Voice warnings were much louder and clearer, and the aircraft was much quieter. All this…and less weight, too.”
