Stilo ST5 FN 8860-2018 ABP Carbon Fiber Racing Helmet FIA 8860 Certification valid thru 2033 for these ST5 FN 8860 ABP Helmet The Stilo ST5 FN 8860-2018 ABP Carbon Fiber Racing Helmet is engineered for professional drivers who demand one of the highest levels of helmet protection available in motorsports. Designed around the stringent FIA 8860-2018 ABP standard, the ST5 FN ABP combines an extremely lightweight carbon-fiber shell with Advanced Ballistic Protection developed for top-level open-wheel, prototype, endurance, and professional racing. The FN designation stands for Stilo's Formula Naked configuration. Unlike the ST5 GT, the FN eliminates the external integrated side ports to reduce weight and create an exceptionally clean aerodynamic profile. The helmet can still be configured for communications, forced air, hydration, and helmet eject systems through Stilo's purpose-built accessory system. For drivers competing at the highest levels of motorsport—or racers who simply refuse to compromise on protection—the ST5 FN 8860-2018 ABP delivers exceptional safety, low weight, comfort, and professional-grade functionality. FIA 8860-2018 ABP Advanced Ballistic Protection ABP stands for Advanced Ballistic Protection. FIA developed the ABP specification to provide increased protection to the frontal area of the helmet, particularly around the forehead and visor opening. The ABP design incorporates additional protection directly into the helmet structure instead of relying on the separate Zylon visor panel used with previous-generation FIA 8860-2010 Formula 1 helmets. The FIA 8860-2018 ABP testing procedure includes demanding impact and projectile testing intended for motorsports where drivers may be exposed to debris and other high-energy impacts. The result is an exceptionally protective helmet designed for the highest levels of professional competition. Lightweight Carbon Fiber Construction The Stilo ST5 FN 8860-2018 ABP is constructed from 100% medium-tensile carbon fiber, providing an outstanding combination of strength, rigidity, impact performance, and low weight. Reducing helmet weight is especially important in open-wheel and high-downforce race cars, where sustained lateral G-forces can place significant loads on the driver's head and neck. The lightweight construction of the ST5 FN helps reduce fatigue during long sessions without sacrificing the protection required by the FIA 8860-2018 ABP standard. Designed for Open-Cockpit and Professional Racing The ST5 FN ABP is particularly well suited for open-wheel and open-cockpit racing where the driver's helmet is more exposed to airflow, debris, and other environmental factors. The ABP configuration uses a reduced-height eyeport and specialized visor to increase protection around the forehead area. Combined with the aerodynamic ST5 shell, the helmet provides a compact and streamlined profile for high-speed racing. Formula Naked FN Design The FN or Formula Naked configuration removes the external side accessory ports found on the Stilo ST5 GT. Eliminating these ports reduces weight and creates a smooth exterior shell ideally suited to Formula, prototype, and open-wheel applications. Despite the clean exterior, the ST5 FN remains compatible with a wide range of Stilo accessories and can be configured for driver communications, hydration, top forced air, and helmet eject systems. Integrated Accessory Capability The ST5 FN was designed so important racing accessories can be added without creating unnecessary cables, hoses, or components hanging around the driver's helmet. Compatible with Stilo FN communication systems Compatible with Stilo top forced-air systems Compatible with helmet eject systems Compatible with hydration systems Available aero accessories for open-cockpit applications Compatible with Stilo ABP-specific visors Communications, forced-air components, hydration equipment, and other optional accessories are sold separately unless specifically included with the selected configuration. Factory-Installed HANS Posts The Stilo ST5 FN 8860-2018 ABP comes with factory-installed HANS posts, making it ready for use with compatible head-and-neck restraint systems. Factory installation provides a clean, properly positioned attachment solution without requiring the racer to install restraint anchors separately. ST5 ABP Visor System The ABP helmet uses a specialized reduced-height eyeport and visor designed specifically around the Advanced Ballistic Protection requirements. Stilo's center visor locking system allows the shield to be opened and closed easily, even while wearing racing gloves. Tear-off posts allow the helmet to be configured for racing environments where debris and contamination can quickly affect visibility. Important: Because of the different eyeport design, always verify that replacement shields and accessories are specifically compatible with the ST5 ABP helmet. Improved Interior Comfort Stilo redesigned the ST5 interior with more contoured cheek pads and padding designed to improve comfort and helmet stability. Removable earmuff cushions help isolate the driver's ears from surrounding noise, creating a quieter environment and providing dedicated space for compatible communications equipment. Eight-Point Top Ventilation Eight ventilation openings across the top of the helmet help manage airflow and can also be used with the optional Stilo ST5 Top Air System.

Bell HP77 EVO-IV 8860-2018 ABP Carbon Fiber Helmet The Bell HP77 EVO-IV 8860-2018 ABP Carbon Fiber Helmet delivers Formula-level protection, aerodynamic performance, cooling, and optical clarity for professional open-wheel and open-cockpit racing. Developed from Bell’s multiple Formula One World Championship-winning HP7 platform, the HP77 EVO-IV combines an ultra-lightweight carbon fiber shell with a narrow eyeport and integrated ballistic materials designed to provide additional protection from flying debris. Homologated to the FIA 8860-2018 ABP advanced helmet standard, the HP77 EVO-IV is engineered for drivers competing where helmet weight, high-speed stability, visibility, ventilation, and impact-energy management must perform at the highest level. Updated shell construction, a multi-piece energy-absorbing liner, optical-grade DSAF visor, and carefully managed airflow make the HP77 EVO-IV Bell’s premier helmet for demanding formula and exposed-cockpit applications. Championship-Proven Bell HP7 Heritage The HP77 EVO-IV is based on the Bell HP7, a helmet platform proven through multiple Formula One World Championships. Bell used this foundation to create an ABP-specific helmet for drivers who need the highest level of frontal protection available within the FIA 8860-2018 helmet standard. Its compact carbon shell, aerodynamic profile, narrow eyeport, advanced ventilation, and integrated cockpit-system channels reflect the requirements of professional drivers competing at extreme speeds. Every major component is designed to work as part of a complete protective system without adding unnecessary exterior bulk or weight. FIA 8860-2018 ABP Advanced Helmet Protection The Bell HP77 EVO-IV is homologated to the FIA 8860-2018 ABP standard. ABP stands for Advanced Ballistic Protection and identifies helmets that incorporate additional protection around the frontal area above the visor. The HP77 EVO-IV uses a visor opening positioned approximately 12 mm lower than the original HP7-style opening. High-strength ballistic materials are integrated into the reinforced frontal structure to increase protection from medium-sized debris and objects that may strike the helmet in an open cockpit. The reduced eyeport is an intentional part of the certified ABP design. Adding an external visor panel or reinforcement strip to a conventional helmet does not convert that helmet into an FIA 8860-2018 ABP model. The complete helmet must be manufactured, tested, labeled, and homologated in its ABP configuration. High-Strength and High-Modulus Carbon Fiber Shell The HP77 EVO-IV shell is manufactured using high-strength and high-modulus carbon fibers selected to provide excellent structural performance at an exceptionally low weight. The shell is finished in exposed matte carbon, giving the helmet a purposeful appearance without disguising its advanced composite construction. Reducing helmet weight can help limit strain on the driver’s head and neck during repeated high-g braking, cornering, impacts, and long race sessions. The compact shell profile also supports improved cockpit clearance and allows the helmet to move more cleanly through high-speed airflow. Multi-Density, Multi-Piece Energy-Absorbing Liner Inside the carbon shell is an advanced multi-density, multi-piece liner engineered to manage different impact loads. Rather than relying on a single uniform layer, the liner uses multiple sections and material densities to help absorb and distribute impact energy across the helmet structure. This construction allows Bell to tune individual areas of the liner according to the protection required around the crown, sides, rear, chin bar, and frontal sections of the helmet. The result is a complete impact-management system designed around the demanding performance requirements of FIA 8860-2018 ABP. Narrow ABP Eyeport for Open-Cockpit Protection The HP77 EVO-IV has a noticeably narrower eyeport than a conventional full-face racing helmet. The reduced opening allows the reinforced upper frontal structure to extend farther downward, increasing the protected area above the visor. Although the eyeport is compact, its shape is developed to preserve the forward and peripheral visibility needed in formula and open-cockpit racing. Drivers should verify that the ABP eyeport provides suitable visibility for their seating position, mirrors, steering-wheel display, and cockpit layout before competing. Optical-Grade Double Screen Anti-Fog Visor The Bell HP77 EVO-IV includes an optical-grade, injection-molded Double Screen Anti-Fog visor. Commonly known as DSAF, this visor construction uses two viewing layers to create an insulating barrier that helps control condensation across the shield. The DSAF system is especially valuable in wet weather, cool temperatures, high humidity, driver changes, and other conditions where rapid temperature differences can cause a conventional visor to fog. Injection molding also supports consistent thickness and optical quality across the curved viewing area. The HP77 EVO-IV uses Bell SE077 3 mm replacement shields. Drivers should confirm that any clear, tinted, mirrored, or specialty visor is specifically listed for the HP77 EVO-IV and its installed pivot hardware. 12-Channel Top and Chin-Bar Ventilation Bell equips the HP77 EVO-IV with a powerful top and chin-bar ventilation system incorporating 12 intake and extraction channels. Fresh air enters through the upper and lower intake areas, moves through the helmet, and helps carry heat and moisture away from the driver. The installed intake system includes a two-part center intake and low-profile side components. The low-profile design helps maintain airflow while reducing unnecessary aerodynamic disturbance around the top of the helmet. Effective ventilation can improve driver concentration and comfort while also supporting the performance of the anti-fog visor system. Actual airflow will vary according to vehicle speed, windscreen design, cockpit turbulence, head position, and installed aerodynamic accessories. Aerodynamic Shell and Visor Integration The shell and visor were developed together to improve aerodynamic performance in exposed high-speed airflow. The smooth transition between the visor, shell, intakes, and rear profile helps manage turbulence around the helmet and reduce unwanted lifting or buffeting. Bell also designed the helmet to help reduce internal wind noise and improve the energy-management capability of the complete shell and visor system. Optional top spoilers, top gurneys, and chin-bar gurneys are available separately. These components allow the helmet’s aerodynamic balance to be adjusted for different cockpit designs, windscreens, seating positions, and airflow conditions. Integrated Communication and Hydration Channels Channels integrated into the HP77 EVO-IV facepiece provide multiple routing options for radio and hydration equipment. These passages help teams install compatible communication wiring or a drinking tube without placing excessive pressure between the helmet liner and the driver’s head. A frontal chin-bar opening for a drinking tube is available as an optional special-order configuration. Radio electronics, microphones, earbuds, wiring, connectors, drink tubes, valves, and hydration components are not included unless specifically selected with the helmet. Any installed communication or hydration equipment must be routed carefully so it does not interfere with helmet fit, visor operation, chin-strap security, visibility, or head-and-neck-restraint use. Factory-Installed HANS Anchors Factory-installed HANS anchors are included as original equipment. These attachment points allow a compatible head-and-neck restraint to be connected to the helmet using the restraint manufacturer’s approved tether system. The anchors should not be removed, altered, repositioned, or replaced with unapproved components. Always follow the helmet and restraint manufacturers’ instructions and confirm the applicable head-and-neck-restraint requirements with the sanctioning body. Synthetic Rubber Eyeport Seal A synthetic rubber gasket surrounds the visor opening to help reduce the entry of water, dust, rubber debris, and other contaminants. When the visor is properly closed, the gasket creates a more controlled seal between the shield and helmet shell. The eyeport gasket should be inspected regularly for cuts, deformation, looseness, or contamination. Damaged seals should be replaced with the correct Bell component rather than repaired with adhesive or non-approved material.

Stilo ST6 FN ABP Carbon Fiber 8860-2018 Racing Helmet The Stilo ST6 FN ABP Carbon Fiber Racing Helmet is built for professional drivers who demand Stilo's highest level of open-cockpit protection without sacrificing weight, airflow, visibility, or comfort. Developed with direct input from Formula 1 and endurance racing teams, the ST6 generation advances the championship-proven ST5 platform with updated aerodynamics, a redesigned ventilation system, improved downward visibility, new interior padding, and an entirely new visor system. This FN ABP version combines Stilo's lightweight Carbon PURO Tech construction with FIA 8860-2018 ABP homologation. Advanced Ballistic Protection extends the protected area across the forehead, making the ST6 FN ABP specifically suited to high-level open-wheel and open-cockpit racing where protection from airborne debris is critical. FIA 8860-2018 Advanced Ballistic Protection ABP stands for Advanced Ballistic Protection. The ST6 FN ABP incorporates an extended protective area across the forehead to address the additional hazards faced by drivers in exposed cockpits. The FIA 8860-2018 ABP configuration represents one of Stilo's highest-specification full-face racing helmet platforms and is intended for competitors operating at professional and international levels of motorsport. Developed with Formula 1 Experience Stilo developed the ST6 with extensive input from drivers and teams competing at the highest levels of Formula 1 and endurance racing. Feedback from professional drivers influenced the helmet's airflow, visibility, comfort, aerodynamics, and hardware. The result is not simply a cosmetic update to the ST5. The ST6 was re-engineered around the real demands of modern high-speed race cars, particularly open-wheel applications where aerodynamic stability, cooling, vision, and helmet security all become more critical. Carbon PURO Tech Shell The ST6 FN uses Stilo's Carbon PURO Tech construction, developed to produce an extremely lightweight carbon shell while maintaining the structural performance required for elite motorsport. PURO technology minimizes unnecessary finishing materials and coatings, allowing the carbon construction itself to deliver a clean finished surface while reducing excess weight. Up to 11% Lighter Than the ST5 Weight reduction was a major focus during development of the ST6. Stilo states that the new generation can be up to 11% lighter than the ST5 while delivering improved safety performance. Reducing helmet mass can be especially valuable in formula and open-cockpit racing, where high lateral loads, braking forces, aerodynamic buffeting, and long race durations place substantial stress on the driver's neck. Three-Shell Sizing System The ST6 range uses three shell sizes to better match the exterior helmet dimensions to the driver's actual head size. Rather than placing a broad range of sizes into a single oversized shell, this approach helps keep the helmet as compact and light as practical for each driver. Stilo also offers an additional extra-small Zero shell on selected ST6 Zero models. F1-Inspired Airflow System The ST6 FN ABP features a redesigned airflow system based on Stilo's Formula 1 experience. Front ventilation was reshaped to move more air through the helmet while maintaining the structural and aerodynamic requirements of high-level competition. Top ventilation openings channel air through the helmet's internal structure to help reduce heat, sweat, and moisture during demanding race sessions. Improved Downward Field of View Stilo increased the ST6's downward field of vision compared with the ST5. This change provides drivers with improved visibility toward the steering wheel, dashboard, controls, mirrors, and nearby cockpit surroundings. The additional visibility can be especially useful in formula and prototype cockpits where the seating position and surrounding bodywork can make downward sightlines particularly important. Injection-Molded ST6 ABP Visor The ST6 introduces a new injection-molded visor designed for optical performance, durability, and smoother operation. The visor receives Stilo's new high-performance washable anti-fog treatment, helping maintain clear vision while allowing the visor to be cleaned and maintained more easily than traditional anti-fog coatings. The ST6 FN ABP requires the dedicated Stilo ST6 ABP visor family to maintain the helmet's Advanced Ballistic Protection configuration. Dual-Position Visor Lock Stilo redesigned the visor locking mechanism for the ST6 generation. The system is engineered to comply with current FIA requirements with the visor in both the fully closed position and ventilation position. This allows the driver to use a controlled partially open setting for additional airflow while retaining a secure mechanical locking system. Updated Visor Hardware New visor pivots, sliders, and mounting hardware provide smoother operation and easier installation compared with the previous generation. The updated design also makes visor removal and replacement more straightforward when changing between clear, tinted, mirrored, or other compatible ST6 ABP shields. Improved Cheek Pad Stability The ST6 uses newly designed cheek padding intended to improve both comfort and helmet stability. The revised shape helps hold the helmet securely around the driver's face while reducing unnecessary pressure during long sessions. This is especially important in open cars where wind loading, vibration, and high cornering forces can continually act on the helmet. Designed for Open-Cockpit Performance The ST6 FN ABP interior and aerodynamic package are specifically optimized for performance in open cars. The combination of improved cheek support, airflow management, ABP forehead protection, and refined external aerodynamics makes the helmet particularly well suited to formula, prototype, and other exposed-cockpit race cars. Communication-System Ready The ST6 FN ABP is prepared for installation of multiple Stilo communication configurations. Internal routing provisions allow compatible microphones, earbud connections, earmuff speaker systems, radio connections, and other electronic components to be integrated cleanly into the helmet. This gives teams flexibility to configure the helmet around the communication system required by the car, championship, or driver's preference. Integrated Equipment Routing Stilo redesigned the internal padding channels of the ST6 platform to simplify installation of racing electronics and related equipment. The routing system helps keep communication wiring and other components organized while minimizing interference with helmet fit and driver comfort. Stilo ST6 FN ABP Carbon Fiber Features FIA 8860-2018 ABP homologation Advanced Ballistic Protection Extended forehead protection area Carbon PURO Tech shell construction Developed with Formula 1 and endurance racing input Up to 11% lighter than the ST5 generation Three-shell sizing system F1-inspired redesigned airflow system Top ventilation openings for heat and moisture management Increased downward field of view compared with the ST5 New comfort cheek padding Improved cheek stability Injection-molded visor High-performance washable anti-fog treatment Dual-position FIA-compliant visor locking system Secure visor locking in fully closed and ventilation positions Redesigned visor hardware for smoother movement Dedicated ST6 ABP visor compatibility Ready for multiple communication-system configurations Internal routing for electronics and communication equipment Special comfort design optimized for open cars ST6 FN ABP vs. ST6 FN The primary difference between the ST6 FN ABP and standard ST6 FN is the additional Advanced Ballistic Protection incorporated into the ABP model. The standard ST6 FN provides the core ST6 carbon construction, airflow, visibility, visor, and comfort improvements. The ST6 FN ABP adds the extended forehead protection required for ABP homologation and uses dedicated ST6 ABP visors. ST6 FN ABP vs. ST6 FN Zero ABP Both models provide Advanced Ballistic Protection, but the ST6 FN Zero ABP represents Stilo's ultimate weight-focused configuration and provides access to the additional smaller Zero shell for the appropriate head sizes. The standard ST6 FN ABP offers the same core ST6 design philosophy and FIA 8860-2018 ABP protection in Stilo's Carbon PURO Tech construction. ST6 ABP Visor Compatibility The ST6 FN ABP requires dedicated Stilo ST6 ABP visors. Genuine ST6 ABP shields are available in multiple configurations, including clear, smoked, silver, mirrored, and double-glazed options. Because the ABP visor is part of the helmet's protective system, standard non-ABP ST6 visors should not be substituted when ABP compliance is required. Getting the Correct ST6 Fit Stilo revised its sizing and shell structure for the ST6 generation, so drivers moving from an ST5 should not automatically assume that the same labeled size will provide an identical fit. A correctly fitted helmet should provide light, even pressure around the entire head without isolated pressure points. The helmet should remain stable when the head moves and should not rotate independently around the driver's head. Measure around the widest part of the head with a flexible measuring tape, approximately one inch above the eyebrows and around the rear of the skull. Take the measurement multiple times and compare the largest consistent measurement with the ST6 sizing chart.
