Snell updates M2005 list – September 4, 2006
Snell Memorial Foundation’s M2005 Standard presents methods for identifying motorcycle helmet models that meet specified standards for impact protection and retention system strength. Manufacturers voluntarily submit helmets to be tested to this standard and if the submitted helmets pass, a certification is issued.
Helmets tested are in the same condition as those offered for sale. Five complete helmets are submitted by the manufacturer for a certification test program for each distinct structural configuration of the models offered for sale. Four of the samples are destroyed in testing, the fifth is retained for comparison and reference.
