Skylotec Contour X Inceptor Helmet Visors
Skylotec Contour X Inceptor Helmet Face Shield
The Skylotec Contour range is a pair of pre shaped, multi purpose helmet visors that go further than a standard eye shield. The Contour X (BE-490) is a moulded polycarbonate visor with high impact protection for the face. The Contour X1 (BE-491) is the full face version: it adds an integrated chin guard and is rated against the arc flash caused by an electrical short circuit as well as impact.
Both are made from polycarbonate and certified to EN 166:2001, and both attach quickly to the visor carrier (BE-489) using the gear rack of any Inceptor GRX helmet, with no additional tools needed. The carrier has a swivel and multi position tilt so the visor can be parked clear of the face. The Contour X weighs 0.18kg and measures 135 x 235 x 320mm; the Contour X1 weighs 0.17kg and measures 140 x 235 x 350mm. If the job involves live electrical work, the Contour X1 is the one to specify. Browse the wider work helmets range, other Skylotec gear, or the full rope access range. It pairs with the Visix Inceptor visor and the Inceptor GRX helmet.

How is the Contour X different from a standard visor?
The Contour X1 (BE-491) has an integrated chin guard and serves as a full face shield, which suits grinding, cutting and live electrical work. The Contour X (BE-490) covers the face without the chin guard and is rated for impact only.
Does it protect against arc flash?
The Contour X1 (BE-491) does. It is rated against the arc flash caused by an electrical short circuit as well as impact. The Contour X (BE-490) is rated for impact only, so specify the X1 for live electrical work.
Which helmet does it fit?
It attaches to any Inceptor GRX helmet using the gear rack and the visor carrier (BE-489), with no additional tools needed. The carrier is a separate part and is needed for either visor.
