The Stilo ST5 FN ABP ZERO: Advanced Ballistic Protection
The Advanced Ballistic Protection (ABP) features reinforced areas above the visor opening, which is 10mm lower than non-ABP models. In short, this is the highest specification helmet ever developed.
The Stilo ST5 FN ABP ZERO 8860-2018 carbon helmet was designed for professional racers needing to satisfy the strict FIA 8860-2018 regulation. It’s also the helmet of choice for drivers who won’t compromise their safety, no matter where they’re racing. This certification provides an unparalleled level of puncture protection and impact resistance. Try as you may, you won’t find a safer, lighter-weight helmet anywhere.
Ultra Light in Weight and Heavy on Features
The Stilo ST5 FN ABP ZERO 8860-2018 is the lightest-weight carbon fiber racing helmet on the market. While it lacks the integrated side ports of the Stilo Helmets ST5 GT 8860-2018 carbon helmet, it can still be outfitted with top forced air and a helmet eject system. The innovative design incorporates mounting and routing for these options at the time of manufacture, so integration is sleek and seamless with nothing hanging down or otherwise getting in the way. When not in use, you don't even know these features are there.
Looking for increased visibility? The Stilo Helmets ST5 N ZERO 8860-2018 has a taller, lower-set eye port, giving you better visibility while not compromising safety. Stilo visors use a center pinch-clip to make opening and closing easy, even while wearing Nomex racing gloves.
We have found that customers who typically wear a size 59 in other brands are most comfortable in a Stilo size 60, which uses the large shell. Please order accordingly.

Arai GP-7SRC ABP 8860-2018 Carbon Fiber Helmet
$4,599.95
The Arai GP-7SRC ABP 8860: Advanced Ballistic Protection
The new Arai GP-7SRC ABP is a stunning example of Arai’s vision and technological mastery, engineered into a functional, real-world piece of safety equipment. It begins with a startling advancement: a proprietary Carbon Fiber (CF) weave that combines CF’s existing benefits of high strength and extreme light weight.
But there's a major added benefit that standard CF does not possess: flexibility. (Standard CF tends to splinter or shatter instead of flex on impact.) The result is a helmet ready for the unparalleled demands and requirements of high end closed-cockpit racing. The remaining list of Arai GP-7SRC features and advances is impressive because, for this helmet and its prospective user, it simply has to be. The Arai GP-7SRC ABP meets or exceeds the FIA 8860-2018 ABP homologation standard.
Advanced Ballistic Protection The Formula One Standard
FIA's new ABP (Advanced Ballistic Protection) specification is intended especially for drivers in open cars.
The Arai GP-7SRC ABP has been strengthened in the forehead area, incorporating an external intrusion panel (previously mounted to the shield) that is now integrated into the helmet shell itself. The ABP homologation was written to reduce the risk of injury from debris or other objects striking a driver’s head.
Arai GP-7SRC ABP 8860-2018 Carbon Fiber Ventilation
Three large, close-able, intake vents combined with larger 10mm holes and two additional exhaust vents in the center of the helmet greatly increase air flow. A redesigned exhaust cowling improves aerodynamics, drawing out hot air escaping the helmet. The GP-7SRC comes with all vents unattached so you can customize the vent configuration to your specific needs.
Arai Positive Shield Latch
Arai's positive latch mechanism provides solid shield closure while allowing normal operation of the shield. Designed as an integral component of the shield system, not just an add-on afterthought, its functional simplicity belies the complexity of the design.
Installed HANS Post Anchors Included
Integrated seats accommodate a variety of Head and Neck Restraint devices. Pre-installed M6 threaded washer/nut with 6mm threads accepts a variety of anchor systems, making installation easy. The flat surface around the mounting nut allows the anchor post to rest flush on the helmet surface.
Arai's Most Advanced ABP Carbon Fiber Shell
Available in sizes XS through Large. Arai's proprietary carbon fiber material and weave provide an extremely strong yet flexible material, helping manage impact energy. Multiple reinforcing materials are used to improve performance while keeping weight and bulk to a minimum.
Eject-Ready Crown Pad
Pre-cut pocket under the crown pad can be easily removed to accommodate the optional eject system.
Drink Tube Compatible
The GP-7SRC chin liner is now more easily removed to install a drink tube into the liner. The chin liner comes standard with four different drink hose placements.

Getting The Best Fit for Your Arai GP-7SRC Carbon
The Arai GP-7SRC 8860-2018 is available in sizes XS to Large. The most effective helmet is one that fits properly. To measure your head, have an assistant use a dressmaker's tape or a piece of string to measure the circumference of your head. Start at a point about an inch above your eyebrows, looping around the back of your head at the point that results in the largest measurement, and finally around to the front again. It's a good idea to take two or three measurements to make sure you have the largest one.

It’s also the helmet of choice for drivers who won’t compromise their safety, no matter where they’re racing. This certification provides an unparalleled level of puncture protection as well as impact resistance.
ABP is an acronym for "Advanced Ballistic Protection". The ABP replaces the zylon panel required by FIA in the previous generation (FIA 8860-2010) helmets, integrating stronger protection into the front of the helmet shell. A brand new testing procedure was introduced to evaluate this area, based on military ballistic specifications with a projectile shot at 250 km/h. The Stilo ST5 FN ABP was the first helmet to be certified to this new standard, offering a higher safety degree while maintaining dimensions and weight.
The Stilo ST5 FN ABP 8860-2018 is among the lightest carbon fiber racing helmets on the market. While it lacks the side ports of the Stilo ST5 GT 8860-2018 Carbon Fiber Helmet, it can still be outfitted with electronics, top forced air and a helmet eject system. Thanks to an innovative design incorporating mounting and routing for these options, integration is sleek and seamless with nothing protruding, hanging down, or otherwise getting in the way.
