It features fiberglass and carbon fiber reinforced shell. The Quad-Valve™ exhaust system, which retrofits to most previous Kirby Morgan® Helmets, has less breathing resistance than the older single valve exhaust while providing an extremely dry hat. This system is recommended for diving in biologically contaminated water. Our SuperFlow® regulator is a proven design that provides excellent breathing characteristics over a wide range of depths.The SuperFlow® 350 is standard on this helmet.

The Helmet Shell is hand laid up glass fiber reinforced thermal setting polyester (fiberglass) with carbon fiber reinforcement at key points for added durability. It is light and highly impact resistant, and provides a heat/cold barrier as well as being an excellent electrical nonconductor. Kirby Morgan® has over 50 years experience in composite laminations.

CE Certification:

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • What is the difference between the 17C and the 17B besides the neck dam and locking mechanism?

    The main difference between SL 17B and SL 17C is the locking colar. The SL 17C also utilizes a different snoopy, neck dam, exhaust assy, regulator and it has mounted brackets for accessories on the top of the helmet.  If you are more interested in SL 17C, you may also consider looking into SL 27 & KM 37. They both have the benefit of modular communications, which are not present on the SL 17B & 17C. The main difference between SL 27 and KM 37 is the size of the shell. The mounting brackets that are featured on th SL 17C can be purchased separately and installed on any of those helmets.
