Oregon Aero® Aviation Helmet Upgrade Kits are designed a variety of helmets

    Today’s helmets serve multiple purposes. Not only are they impact absorption equipment, they are mounting platforms for audio and video systems. Oregon Aero understands how helmets need to function. We also understand the problems helmet users experience, why the problems exist, and how to solve them.



No More Pain

Your blood keeps flowing, so there’s no more ischemia, or "hot spots." We don’t make the pain "better, "the ZetaLiner® Helmet Liner and SoftSeal® Ear Cushions make the pain go away! Helmet pain is a result of localized blood loss, caused by inadequately sized ear seals, unyielding surfaces and sharp edges that come in contact with the human body. Our Upgrade eliminates these problems.

Reduced Overall Sound Pressure

A reduced overall sound pressure of 5dB is achieved by installing the energy dampening HushKit® Passive Ear Cup Noise Attenuation Kit (noise is energy).

Improved Intelligibility

"Intelligibility" means how well you UNDERSTAND what you hear. The Oregon Aero HushKit® Passive Ear Cup Noise Attenuation Kit is particularly effective in the speech frequency of 700-7000 Hz, where intelligibility is reduced because of background noise and where noise induced hearing loss most often occurs. Testing data confirms our Upgrade’s noise dampening benefits. We recommend use of the SoftSeal/HushKit® Combo in some helmet types.

Improved Transmission Clarity

Improved transmission clarity is a design feature of the MicMuff® Microphone Cover, which functions as a microphone acoustic baffle. Now others understand YOU better! For a complete explanation, see the Q&A about how the MicMuff® Microphone Cover works.

A Stable Helmet

The Oregon Aero® ZetaLiner® Helmet Liner eliminates "bob and roll," even with night vision and other externally mounted equipment. In the words of pilots using the Upgrade, "My helmet shell was not sliding around my head as I cranked my neck around...like it usually does" and "I am not feeling...a tug trying to rotate my head...I don’t even notice it’s on (during high performance, high-G maneuvers)."

Improved Energy Absorption

Testing shows transmitted loads were reduced 25%-35% in a helmet equipped with the ZetaLiner® Helmet Liner and SoftSeal/HushKit® Combo insulation kit and ear seals, compared to the original helmet. Go to test data now.

An Easy Fitting

Fitting takes 3 to 5 minutes. Usually a great fit is achieved by trying one or two ZetaLiner® Helmet Liner sizes. Can’t get much easier!

You’ll Feel Cooler and Drier

Tired of perspiration running down your neck? Place Oregon Aero SoftSkin® Ear Seal Covers over our SoftSeal® Ear Cushions. The Ear Seal Covers are made of a perspiration-wicking fabric which draws the perspiration away from the skin where it then evaporates. Also, the ZetaLiner® Helmet Liner reduces skin temperature 1.5°F compared to conventional liner systems.

 A Lighter Weight Helmet

Simply put, a helmet equipped with the Oregon Aero Aviation Helmet Upgrade is lighter weight, compared to a helmet equipped with standard components. You can expect a 2 to 6 oz. weight reduction, depending on the type of original helmet components, as measured during actual Upgrade installations. Go to test data now.
