Icon Visors

Icon visors are model-specific helmet parts, so the helmet name, visor family and approval generation matter more than colour. This collection includes clear, smoke, yellow and RST finishes across current and legacy Icon systems, including Airflite Fliteshield and Forceshield, Airframe Pro/Airform/Airmada Optics and Tracshield, Ultraflite Ultrashield, Threshold Shield, Domain Shield and Variant Pro Precision Optics.

Start by identifying the exact helmet model and its ECE generation from the approval label. Then match the complete product title and part number. An Airflite ECE 22.05 shield is not a substitute for the visually similar ECE 22.06 version, and a shield made for one Icon family should not be forced onto another.

Icon visor compatibility at a glance

• Airflite: uses the model-specific Fliteshield or Forceshield. Choose the version explicitly marked ECE 22.05 or ECE 22.06 for the helmet you own.
• Airframe Pro, Airform and Airmada: Icon lists the Optics shield and flat Tracshield for all three families. Tracshields include posts for compatible tear-offs, which are sold separately.
• Ultraflite: uses the Ultrashield. Icon separates ECE 22.06 clear, dark-smoke and Pinlock-ready clear options from deeper DOT-market tints.
• Threshold: uses the Threshold Shield made for this modular helmet.
• Domain: uses its own Domain Shield or Bubble Shield products.
• Variant Pro and legacy models: use their named Precision Optics or model-specific shield. Confirm the generation and part number carefully.

Airflite ECE 22.05 and ECE 22.06

Icon publishes separate part numbers for both Airflite generations across Fliteshield and Forceshield products. The collection titles show the applicable standard so riders can avoid mixing the two. Check the approval label inside the helmet rather than estimating its generation from the graphic or purchase date.

The Fliteshield covers the main eye port. The Forceshield is a different Airflite visor format, so match the visor name as well as the ECE generation. Pivot kits and other mechanism parts are separate components and should only be replaced with the correct matching hardware.

Optics, Tracshield, Ultrashield and newer systems

Icon states that the Optics shield is compatible with Airframe Pro, Airform and Airmada, and that the flat Tracshield fits the same three families. The Tracshield adds tear-off posts, but tear-offs are not included. Ultraflite, Threshold and Domain use newer model-specific systems that are not interchangeable with Optics products.

Pinlock compatibility also depends on the exact visor. A Pinlock-ready shield has pins for its specified insert, but this does not mean an insert is supplied. Match the insert to both the visor and helmet model before installation.

Clear, tinted and mirrored visors

A clear approved visor is the practical choice for darkness, poor weather and mixed conditions. Smoke and RST finishes reduce or alter transmitted light and should be selected for suitable daytime use. Icon's official catalogue distinguishes ECE products from deeper DOT-market tints, and notes that its DOT shields are not certified for European road use.

For riding in Great Britain, check the visor for the required approval marking. GOV.UK states that visors marked Daytime Use Only should only be used in daylight and that visors transmitting less than 50% of visible light cannot legally be used on the road.

Fitting and care

• Work on a clean, stable surface and follow the helmet manual.
• Compare the new and removed visor before engaging the pivot points.
• Check that both sides lock into the mechanism without forcing them.
• Open and close the visor repeatedly and confirm the seal is even.
• Clean with warm water and a soft cloth; avoid solvents and abrasive products.
• Replace a visor that is deeply scratched, cracked, distorted or unable to lock securely.
