Pinlock Anti-Fog Inserts in India
Pinlock anti-fog inserts are the most effective solution for eliminating visor fogging — a serious safety hazard that can completely obscure vision in cold mornings, monsoon rain, and humid conditions. Custom Elements stocks pinlock inserts from Pinlock — the original manufacturer — as well as OEM inserts for LS2 and Shoei helmets.
The Pinlock system works by fitting a moisture-absorbing silicone-edged insert inside your visor. The silicone bead creates an airtight seal between the insert and the visor, forming a double-lens system that prevents condensation from forming on the inner visor surface. Originally developed for racing, Pinlock inserts are now considered essential equipment for all-weather riders across India, particularly during the monsoon season and on cold mountain passes.
Why Use a Pinlock Insert
- Instant Fog Elimination - The double-lens air pocket prevents condensation from forming on the visor inner surface in virtually all conditions.
- Optical Clarity - Pinlock inserts are manufactured to high optical standards, adding no distortion to your field of vision.
- Monsoon Essential - For Indian riders, a pinlock is close to mandatory during the rainy season when humidity causes rapid visor fogging.
- Mountain Riding Safety - Cold temperature differentials on high-altitude passes create severe fogging — a pinlock eliminates this risk.
- Cost-Effective Safety - A pinlock insert is one of the most affordable yet impactful safety upgrades for any road helmet.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does my visor need to be pinlock-ready?
Yes. Your visor must have two small pinlock pins fitted to accept a pinlock insert. Many visors from LS2 and Shoei come pinlock-ready from the factory. Check your visor for two small posts on the inside surface.
What is the difference between Pinlock 30, 70, and 120?
The number refers to the moisture absorption capacity of the insert. Pinlock 30 is a basic entry-level insert, Pinlock 70 is the standard for most road riders, and Pinlock 120 offers the maximum anti-fog performance using a more advanced moisture-absorbing silicone compound.
How do I fit a pinlock insert?
Remove the visor from your helmet. Flex the insert gently and hook one pin into place, then flex slightly to seat the second pin. The silicone edge should form a visible seal against the inner visor surface. Do not force or crease the insert.
How do I clean a pinlock insert?
Clean only with water and a microfibre cloth. Never use solvent-based cleaners, alcohol, or abrasive materials on a pinlock insert as these will damage the moisture-absorbing silicone seal and anti-scratch coating.
