The
unmistakable and highly demanded Universal Shroud is compatible with
nearly all helmets with 1 or 3 holes, or helmets with no holes when used
with the optional strap assembly. These helmet types include, but are
not limited to, MICH, ACH, CVC, PASGT as well as non-ballistic helmets such as PRO-TEC. The
Norotos Universal Shroud is not just another plastic or aluminum molded
NVG holding device – in contrast, the Universal Shroud exhibits the
ultimate in anti-wobble design, durability and product reliability.
The
Universal Shroud helps to reduce any undesired goggle-to-helmet
wobble. Our advanced stability management system starts on the back
side of the Universal Shroud where a gasket affixed to the unique
curvature of the shroud creates a harmonious, self-stabilizing
compression effect. The front side of the shroud has four
high-endurance shock absorbers that further enhance the stability of the
helmet mount and goggles. Using the Universal Shroud with any Norotos
mount will result in optimum stability and longevity.
The
specially designed tether plug allows user to keep the helmet mount and
goggles together by attaching the desired length of 550 cord from the
shroud to the goggles. The tether plug is designed to prevent damage to
goggles upon accidental drop or disengagement from the helmet mount,
yet automatically releases when snagged or subjected to the user’s
deliberate release.
The
Universal Shroud meets and/or exceeds military specification
requirements for night vision support hardware and exhibits exceedingly
high strength and endurance resulting in the most sophisticated,
tolerance-controlled shroud in today’s marketplace. When
interfaced with the Norotos AKA2 or INVG Helmet Mount, the system
optimizes anti-wobble providing extended system longevity while aiding
the user by eliminating NVG wobble fatigue. The precision-machined
interface is machined from high-strength, corrosion-resistant anodized
aluminum alloy specifically designed to be mold integrated within the
high-strength nonmetallic shell which optimizes impact resistance even
when subjected to severe, direct-impact strikes. All
hardware (slides, fasteners, springs and other metallic hardware) has
been selected and tested to meet the harshest environmental conditions. The
precision machining of the interface incorporated with shock absorber
pads assures a continuous anti-wobble fit even as *natural or
accelerated environmental wear occurs.
* Proper maintenance is necessary to avoid wear caused by salt water crystallization as well as sand or dirt build-up.
Note: Drilling your own holes in helmet may affect the ballistic integrity.
