FIA 8860-2018

Set by:
The FIA (Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile), the international governing body for motorsport.

What it means:
FIA 8860-2018 is the FIA's current Advanced Helmet standard for higher levels of auto racing. Despite “2018” in its name, it remains a current FIA homologation. It requires more demanding impact, penetration, crushing, and fire-resistance testing than the FIA Premium Helmet standard. This is the non-ABP version.

Typically required for:
Professional and high-level auto racing where FIA 8860-2018 helmets are specified. Some championships accept either 8860-2018 or the ABP version, while others may specifically require ABP.

Not intended for: Motorcycle use.

Always check your event or sanctioning body's current helmet requirements.

Q&A

31 answered questions

  • How many years is a Bell helmet good for?

    Guest


    • Bell helmets do not technically have an expiration date; however, a statement from the Snell certification webpage recommends replacing any racing driver's helmets after five years of normal use. See Snell Foundation statement in the linked blog post "Snell SA2020 Helmet Expiration Dates Explained"

      admin

  • What is the snell helmet expiration date?

    admin

    • As a general rule, Snell SA helmets are valid for 10 years from their certification date. For example, a Snell SA2025 helmet is good until December 31, 2035. When a new certification comes out, such as SA2030, those helmets are valid until December 31, 2040. Most racing organizations like SCCA, NASA, and NHRA follow this guideline. However, we always recommend checking your specific rulebook, as requirements may vary between different organizations or events.

      admin

  • Are bell helmets snell approved?

    Guest

    • Certainly. Here is a comprehensive summary of potential certifications for Bell Helmets, tailored to their specific motorsport disciplines:
      • Bell racing helmets are certified to Snell SA2020, Snell SA2025, FIA 8859-2015, FIA 8859-2024, FIA 8860-2018, or more recent versions of those standards.
      • Bell kart helmets are certified to Snell K2020, Snell K2025 and/or FIA 8878-2024.
      • Bell youth kart or racing helmets are certified to Snell/FIA CMS, Snell/FIA CMR or SFI 24.1
      Always check the product description to ensure the helmet meets the specific certification requirements for your motorsport needs.

      admin

  • How long will my SA2020 helmet be good for?

    admin

    • Most racing organizations, such as SCCA, NASA, and NHRA, accept Snell SA helmets for 10 years from the homologation date, not the purchase or manufacture date. This means an SA2020 helmet is generally valid through December 31, 2030. However, certain series, like NHRA, may allow use for slightly longer or shorter periods depending on their rules. Always consult your current rulebook, as some organizations may require newer standards sooner than others.

      admin

  • Can you use a motorcycle helmet for car racing?

    admin

    • No. A motorcycle helmet should not be used as a car racing helmet because it does not meet the necessary fireproofing and impact resistance requirements, such as Snell SA2025 or FIA 8859-2024 standards, nor does it provide for head and neck restraint systems. Car racing helmets are specifically engineered for the unique hazards of motorsports, including fire resistance and impact protection in confined spaces. Additionally, drivers should select helmets tailored to their specific application; for instance, a Dirt Track helmet differs in construction and ventilation from an open wheel asphalt racing helmet. Proper selection ensures optimal safety and performance on the track.

      admin

  • Where are Bell helmets built?

    Guest

    • Staff Answer
      Bell racing helmets are designed by R&D and laboratory testing teams from Italy, Belgium, and Bahrain. All racing helmet and karting helmet lines are produced using advanced manufacturing processes that meet Bell's strict quality and safety standards in the manufacturing plant in Bahrain, nearby the Bahrain International Circuit (BIC) which hosts Formula 1 races. Every Bell racing helmet is built to comply with the certification required for its intended use, whether it's Snell SA2025, FIA 8859-2024, or FIA 8860. FAST RACER carries genuine Bell helmets sourced through authorized distribution channels, giving racers confidence in the authenticity and quality of every helmet they purchase.

      admin

  • What are some examples of helmets in the Pro Series?

    admin

    • Examples include Bell RS7, Bell GTX3, Bell GT6 RD, Bell GT6 Pro, and Bell K1 Pro. These helmets are designed to provide a balance between performance and comfort for a variety of racing conditions.

      admin

  • Which helmets are ready to attach head and neck safety devices?

    Guest

    • First, you should look for helmets certified to Snell SA2020, Snell SA2025, and/or FIA8859-2024 standards, as these offer the latest in motorsport safety. Helmets with both SA2025 and FIA8859 certifications typically feature factory-installed Frontal Head Restraint (FHR) anchors, ensuring compatibility with HANS or other head and neck restraint systems. If FHR anchors are not factory-installed, the helmet will include built-in M6 inserts, allowing you to easily install the necessary FHR anchors for safe use. Follow the link for the full lineup of Snell SA2025 helmets.

      admin

  • What does dual certification mean for Bell helmets?

    admin

    • Dual certification means that most Bell helmets are labeled as both Snell and FIA certified, ensuring compliance with U.S. (e.g., Snell SA2020, Snell SA2025) and international motorsport regulations (e.g., FIA 8859-2015, FIA 8859-2024, FIA 8860). This allows racers to participate in a wide range of competitions without needing multiple helmets, providing versatility and convenience.

      admin

  • What series of helmets does Bell Racing offer?

    admin

    • Bell Racing offers helmets across several product series to meet different budgets, racing disciplines, and performance needs. The SPORT Series is ideal for club racers seeking excellent value and safety, while the PRO Series adds premium materials, enhanced comfort, and advanced features for more competitive drivers. At the top of the lineup, the ULTRA Series features Bell's most advanced technologies, lightweight carbon fiber construction, and professional-grade performance.
