Our customized helicopter helmets and MSA Gallet flight helmets have a one-year full warranty with no pre-payment

Helicopter helmets are a critically important piece of equipment and plays an essential role for every pilot and crew. The MSA LH050/MACH 1 & LH250/MACH 2 helicopter helmets meet or exceed the highest standards in the industry. We sell only authentic MSA gallet helmets. At Merit Apparel, our top priority is safety but we also know that fit, comfort, function and reliability are major contributors in performing at top levels and getting your job done.

We also understand that your helicopter helmet is a key element in maintaining consistent quality communication links with those on-board and on the ground. Your helmet is designed for passive noise reduction in addition to radio and intercom connections with your team. A low quality or improperly fit helmet and poorly designed communication system can compromise your ability to work seamlessly with your crew. We work hard to make sure these are non-issues for every customer we serve.

Merit Apparel also provides NOMEX flight gloves that are heat and flash resistant with soft sheep hide palm inserts sewn with NOMEX thread.

NEW “Talk Through” Helmet Communication SystemImage of Talk Through helmet communication system

Helicopter Medical Evacuation crews have had a longstanding problem of being unable to hear their patients while wearing their helmets.  A solution has been developed and introduced to the market and Merit Apparel has this revolutionary communication system.

Called the “Talk Through” system, it can be installed on most helmets.  How does it work? Small microphones are installed on the exterior of the helmet (see image).  The microphones allow the air medic nurse wearing the helmet to hear the patient without removing the helmet. There is no tether to the aircraft so the device will work onboard or outside the aircraft. Read more…
