Helmet Visors
Showing 33 of 33
Visors use transparent impact-resistant materials, often polycarbonate, to protect the covered area while preserving visibility. A half visor does not cover the whole face and is not indestructible. Coatings, shape, helmet compatibility and certification vary by model.

Hockey visors and facial protection
Features to compare
- Coverage:A half visor provides less coverage than a full cage or full-face shield; it does not protect the entire jaw and teeth.
- Visibility:Choose an undamaged shield that provides a clear view in its fitted position.
- Comfort:Correct helmet fit and compatible mounting help avoid pressure or interference.
- Surface coatings:Anti-fog and scratch-resistant treatments are model-specific and do not make a visor immune to fogging or damage.
- Complete setup:The helmet and facial protector must fit and work together. Neither guarantees prevention of injury in a collision.
- Certification:Check the particular product and the rules for your age group and competition. Not every visor listed is approved for official games.
Finding the right helmet and visor fit
Measure your head and use the helmet manufacturer’s chart, then check visor compatibility and mounting. The helmet should remain secure without pressure and the visor must sit in the prescribed position. Contact us for help with the combination.
Half visor or full-face protection?
A cage or full-face shield covers more of the face than a half visor. The choice depends on applicable rules, age and the intended protective coverage, not simply playing experience. Experienced players also use full-face protection; check the approved combination for your helmet.

Frequently asked questions
How should a helmet and visor be cleaned?
Use only cleaners and cloths approved by the manufacturer for the shell, visor and coatings. Avoid aggressive chemicals. Follow the helmet’s liner-cleaning instructions and regularly check mounting parts without overtightening them.
Should I choose a visor or cage?
First check the rules and required coverage. A half visor leaves parts of the face exposed; a full cage or approved full-face shield covers more. Choose a compatible, correctly fitted model rather than making the choice on experience alone.
When should a helmet or visor be replaced?
Follow the manufacturer’s service-life, impact and replacement guidance and any certification expiry. Inspect for cracks, damaged fixings or impaired visibility. There is no universal five-year rule for every helmet-and-visor combination.
