FAQs
What helmet models is the HJC HJ-31 Pinlock Insert compatible with?
This Pinlock insert is specifically designed for the HJC i70 helmet that uses the HJ-31 shield model.
How do I clean the Pinlock insert?
Clean the insert with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Will this insert fit any HJC helmet?
No, this HJ-31 model is specific to the HJC i70 helmet. Other HJC helmets use different shield and Pinlock insert models.
How does a Pinlock insert prevent fogging?
It creates a sealed air pocket between the insert and the main visor, acting as an insulator that prevents condensation from forming on the inside surface.
Can I install the Pinlock insert myself?
Yes, the installation is designed to be straightforward and can typically be done by the user without tools.
What is the difference between a Pinlock-ready shield and a Pinlock insert?
A Pinlock-ready shield has small pins on the inside that the Pinlock insert attaches to. The insert is the separate piece that provides the anti-fogging technology.
How long does a Pinlock insert typically last?
With proper care, the Pinlock insert can last for a considerable amount of time. Replace it if the silicone seal becomes damaged or if you notice persistent fogging despite correct installation.
Troubleshooting
Pinlock insert is fogging
Ensure the silicone seal is making full contact with the helmet shield. Check that the Pinlock insert is correctly seated on the mounting pins. Clean both the inside of the Pinlock and the main shield.
Pinlock insert is loose or rattling
Re-seat the Pinlock insert onto the mounting pins, ensuring it clicks securely into place. Check that the mounting pins on the shield are not damaged.
Visible distortion through the insert
Ensure the Pinlock insert is perfectly aligned and securely attached. Minor adjustments may be needed to find the optimal position. Check that the helmet shield itself is not warped.
Difficulty installing the insert
Make sure you are aligning the insert correctly with the small mounting pins on the inside of the shield. Apply gentle, even pressure. Refer to the setup instructions or online videos for visual guidance.
