How to Install a Fire Helmet Shield

You received your new helmet shield and now it is time to install it. I made a short youtube video explaining the process but I will also put the process below.

Here is a short summary of the video

  • Remove your old fire helmet shield
  • Wet the back of your new shield with water.
  • Place new shield on helmet and align exactly where you want it.
  • Push the shield hard against the screw holes on your helmet. This will mark where to drill
  • Remove shield and drill through holes that were marked. Drill back to front
  • Install new shield on to the helmet

Tools that are needed

  • Screw driver or adjustable wrench (depends on helmet mounting)
  • Drill and drill bit slightly larger than mounting screw
  • Water and towel
