FAQs

What is a Pinlock insert?

A Pinlock insert is a secondary lens that attaches to the inside of a helmet visor using a system of adjustable pins. It creates a sealed air gap, acting as an insulator to prevent fogging and provide clear vision.

What is the difference between Pinlock 30, 70, and 120?

These numbers refer to the performance level of the anti-fog insert. Pinlock 30 offers basic anti-fog performance, Pinlock 70 provides a higher level suitable for most conditions, and Pinlock 120 is designed for extreme cold or high humidity to offer maximum fog resistance.

How do I know if this Pinlock fits my helmet?

This specific HJC Pinlock insert is designed for the HJC I90 (HJ-33) helmets. Always check your helmet model and visor type to ensure compatibility.

Can I use a tinted Pinlock insert on the road?

Clear and light smoke/tinted visors with Pinlock inserts are generally road legal. However, dark smoke/dark tint, colored, and iridium visors are typically intended for race/track use only and may not be road legal.

How do I clean the Pinlock insert?

Clean the Pinlock insert gently with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, Windex, or abrasive materials, as these can damage the anti-fog coating and silicone seal.

How often should I replace my Pinlock insert?

The lifespan of a Pinlock insert depends on usage and care. If you notice reduced anti-fog performance, visible damage, or deep scratches, it's time for a replacement.

Does the Pinlock insert come with the helmet visor?

No, the Pinlock insert is a separate accessory that attaches to a compatible helmet visor. The helmet visor itself is typically sold separately or comes with the helmet.

Troubleshooting

Visor still fogs up slightly.

Ensure the Pinlock insert is correctly seated and the silicone seal is making full contact with the visor. Check if the correct performance level Pinlock is being used for the current temperature and humidity. Clean the insert and visor thoroughly.

Pinlock insert is loose or rattling.

Verify that the insert is securely clipped onto the adjustable eccentric pins. Adjust the pins if necessary to ensure a tight fit. Ensure the slit on the side is engaged.

Difficulty installing the Pinlock insert.

Make sure the visor is clean and free of obstructions. Align the insert carefully with the pins and apply gentle, even pressure. If resistance is met, double-check alignment.

Scratches on the Pinlock insert.

Avoid using abrasive cloths or cleaners. Clean gently with a soft, damp microfiber cloth. If scratches are deep, the insert may need replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This Pinlock insert is specifically designed for the HJC I90 (HJ-33) helmets. Ensure your helmet visor has the corresponding adjustable eccentric pins for installation.

  2. Gently unclip the existing Pinlock insert if one is present.
  3. Align the HJC Pinlock Insert with the pins on the visor.
  4. Press the insert firmly onto the pins until it clicks securely into place. Ensure it is snug and the slit on the side is properly engaged.

Care:

  • Clean the Pinlock insert gently with a soft, damp cloth or a specialized Pinlock cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that could damage the anti-fog coating or silicone seal.
  • Do not use Windex or ammonia-based cleaners, as they can degrade the anti-fog properties.
  • Ensure the insert is completely dry before re-installing it to prevent moisture entrapment.
