FAQs
What helmet is this Pinlock lens compatible with?
This Pinlock 70 MaxVision lens is specifically designed for the Scorpion Covert FX helmet and requires a Pinlock-ready visor.
How do I clean the Pinlock lens?
Use a soft, damp cloth. Mild soap and water can be used for more thorough cleaning, followed by drying with a microfiber cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive materials.
Will this lens fit any Scorpion helmet?
No, this Pinlock 70 MaxVision lens is engineered exclusively for the Scorpion Covert FX model. Compatibility with other Scorpion helmet models is not guaranteed.
How does a Pinlock lens prevent fogging?
The Pinlock system creates a sealed air pocket between the Pinlock lens and the main helmet visor. This trapped air acts as an insulator, preventing condensation and thus fogging.
Is the lens tinted?
No, this is a clear Pinlock 70 MaxVision lens, providing clear, undistorted vision without any tint.
What does 'MaxVision' mean?
MaxVision refers to a Pinlock lens design that offers a larger field of vision compared to standard Pinlock inserts, providing a near-full panoramic view.
How often should I replace the Pinlock lens?
With proper care, the Pinlock lens can last for a considerable time. Replacement is typically needed if the lens becomes significantly scratched, the silicone seal degrades, or fogging performance diminishes.
Troubleshooting
Pinlock lens fogs up despite installation.
Ensure the silicone seal is making full contact with the helmet visor. Check for any debris or damage on the seal. Re-seat the lens to ensure a proper fit.
Pinlock lens is difficult to install.
Ensure you are using the correct Pinlock lens for the Scorpion Covert FX helmet. Make sure the helmet visor is clean and the pins are free of obstructions. Apply gentle, even pressure.
Visible distortion or "ghosting" around the edges.
This can sometimes occur if the lens is not perfectly seated. Remove and re-install the Pinlock lens, ensuring it is flush with the visor and the seal is intact.
Scratch on the Pinlock lens surface.
Minor scratches may be unavoidable with use. For significant scratches that impair vision, the lens may need to be replaced.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Compatibility:
This Pinlock 70 MaxVision lens is exclusively designed for the Scorpion Covert FX helmet. Ensure your helmet's visor is Pinlock-ready, typically indicated by small pins on the sides of the visor that the Pinlock lens attaches to.
Setup:
- Ensure the helmet visor is clean and dry.
- Align the small silicone seal on the Pinlock lens with the corresponding pins on the inside of the helmet visor.
- Gently push the Pinlock lens onto the pins until it snaps securely into place.
- Verify that the Pinlock lens sits flush against the helmet visor, creating a sealed air gap.
Care:
- Clean the Pinlock lens regularly using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or paper towels, which can scratch the surface.
- For stubborn dirt, use a mild soap solution and rinse with clean water, then dry with a microfiber cloth.
- Periodically check the silicone seal for any damage or debris that might impede its sealing function.
