Standard Helmet Padding for Buhurt Combat
Helmet padding Standard is a practical liner for buhurt and training where impact damping, stable fit, and serviceability matter.
The layout works as a helmet suspension padding: the helmet rides on the padding so the shell does not contact your head directly. This reduces the risk of hard shell-to-head hits and helps keep feedback consistent during repeated impacts. Manufacturer specs state foam thickness of 4 cm on the sides and 5 cm on the forehead.
For day-to-day use, the soft shoulder cape is a functional addition. It partially covers the clavicle/upper shoulder line and provides an area where you can sew extra protection without rebuilding the whole setup.
Installation is straightforward: sew or rivet the padding inside your helmet. This mounting approach is maintenance-friendly—worn sections can be replaced or re-stitched without touching the steel. The geometry targets common head shapes and helmet seating: no claims of custom-made-by-default, but an emphasis on stable positioning and clearance.
Historical basis: the fit concept follows historical analogs such as arming caps and helmet liners/suspensions, while using modern materials for durability and damping.
About event checks: inspectors typically look at shell-to-head clearance, damping, and secure attachment. This suspension-style padding can help meet common requirements across leagues and formats (including HMB and others), but final approval is always decided by the event’s technical commission.
