Its primary benefit is the enhanced fog resistance, ensuring a clear view regardless of rain or temperature changes.

FAQs
What is a Pinlock visor?
A Pinlock visor is a type of helmet visor that uses a secondary, insertable lens (the Pinlock insert) to create a sealed air gap. This gap acts as an insulator, significantly reducing fogging compared to a standard visor.
Is the Pinlock insert included with this visor?
This product is the HJC HJ-25 Pinlock Visor itself, which is 'Pinlock ready'. The separate Pinlock insert, which is required for the anti-fog function, is typically sold separately or may come bundled with certain helmets. Please check the product packaging or listing details.
How do I know if my helmet is compatible?
Your HJC RPHA Max helmet must be explicitly stated as 'Pinlock ready'. This means it will have small metal pins on the sides of the visor, designed to hold the Pinlock insert securely.
Can I use this visor on other HJC helmet models?
This HJ-25 Pinlock Visor is specifically designed for the HJC RPHA Max model. Using it on other helmet models is not recommended and may not fit correctly or provide adequate protection.
How do I clean the Pinlock visor?
Clean the outer visor with standard helmet visor cleaner or a mild soap and water solution, using a soft microfiber cloth. The Pinlock insert should be cleaned gently with water or a specialized Pinlock anti-fog cleaner to preserve its properties. Avoid abrasive materials.
Will this visor fit if my helmet is not Pinlock ready?
No, this visor is designed to work with a Pinlock insert and requires the specific mounting pins on the helmet shell. If your helmet is not Pinlock ready, this visor will not be compatible.
What is the difference between clear, tinted, and mirrored visors?
The clear visor offers maximum light transmission for all conditions. Tinted visors reduce brightness for sunny days. Mirrored visors offer similar light reduction with an added reflective coating. This guide focuses on the clear version for all-weather utility.
Troubleshooting
Visor fogs up despite Pinlock installation
Ensure the Pinlock insert is correctly seated and the silicone seal is making full contact with the helmet visor. Check for any debris trapped between the layers. Clean both the visor and the insert.
Difficulty attaching the Pinlock insert
Verify that your helmet visor is indeed 'Pinlock ready' and has the correct pins for the HJ-25 model. Ensure the insert is aligned correctly with the pins before attempting to attach.
Visible scratches on the visor
While scratch-resistant, extreme conditions can cause marks. Clean gently with a microfiber cloth. For significant damage affecting visibility, replacement of the visor or Pinlock insert may be necessary.
