Introducing the HEL-STAR 6 Survival Helmet

Having the right survival gear can make all the difference when you find yourself in an emergency situation outdoors. A critical piece of equipment is a durable and protective helmet. The HEL-STAR 6 by CORE Survival is an excellent choice for a survival helmet.

HEL-STAR 6 Overview

The HEL-STAR 6 is the latest version of CORE Survival's popular HEL-STAR helmet line. It provides comprehensive head protection while remaining lightweight and comfortable for extended wear. Some key features of this survival helmet include:

• Ballistic protection - Level IIIA defense against 9mm and .44 magnum ammunition
• Modular design - Easily customize with various accessories and upgrades
• Emergency light - Built-in 150 lumen flashlight for dark conditions
• Drainage system - Channels water away to keep head dry
• Liner system - moisture-wicking and antimicrobial for comfort
• V50 rating - Protection against fragmentation and shock waves

Unparalleled Protection

The HEL-STAR 6 provides some of the best ballistic protection you can get in a helmet of its size and weight. It meets NIJ Level IIIA impact standards, meaning it can stop common handgun rounds up to .44 Magnum. The aramid fiber shell is also rated for V50 650-fps fragmentation, giving you defense against bomb fragments and shock waves.

CORE Survival did not skimp on coverage either. The helmet offers full protection for your head and ears while maintaining a low profile. Whether you are exploring the outdoors or responding to a disaster scenario, the HEL-STAR 6 has you covered.

Lightweight and Comfortable

Despite its protective capabilities, the HEL-STAR 6 only weighs 2.6 pounds. This makes it light enough for continuous wear without straining your neck. It is even comfortable when worn for hours thanks to its padded liner and adjustable straps.

The moisture-wicking antimicrobial liner helps keep your head cool and dry. It prevents bacterial growth that causes odors even with prolonged use. The channeled airflow design further enhances ventilation for hot climates.

Modular and Customizable

One of the standout features of the HEL-STAR 6 is its modular design. The shell accommodates a wide range of accessories and add-ons to customize your setup:

• Skins - Change color and camo schemes based on environment
• Counterweights - Maintain balance with gear mounted
• NVG mount - Attach night vision goggles
• Rails - Add cameras, lights, and other accessories
• Face shield - Extra protection for your face

Popular accessories include camo skins by MATBOCK and counterweights by Licentia Arms. The possibilities are virtually endless for your mission requirements.

Integrated Emergency Lighting

Having a light source hands-free and readily available is indispensable for survival situations. The HEL-STAR 6 comes equipped with built-in LED lighting to keep your hands free and illuminated in the dark.

Located on the rear of the helmet, the emergency light provides 150 lumens of brightness. It can be activated quickly with gloved hands using the large on/off button. With a lightweight polymer battery, the light can run for up to 72 hours on its lowest setting.
