The classic Kilkenny-style faceguard with a butterfly-style hinge rather than the standard box hinge, preferred by many for its looks.
Hurling is a physical sport involving hurleys, sliotars, collisions and other hazards. Serious injuries may occur even when protective equipment is worn correctly.
A faceguard does not eliminate the risk of injury. Potential injuries include, but are not limited to, facial fractures, eye injuries, dental injuries, lacerations and head injuries.
Customers must not treat a faceguard as a guarantee of protection or use it as a substitute for properly certified, compatible protective equipment.
Replacement faceguards may not be compatible with every helmet. Attaching a replacement faceguard may alter the helmet's original manufactured configuration, affect its protective performance, compromise its structural integrity, or cause it to fail to meet applicable safety requirements.
Customers must verify compatibility and suitability with the original helmet manufacturer and relevant safety authorities before purchase, installation or use.
Faceguard World represent that a replacement faceguard will not preserve the original helmet's certification or protective characteristics.
The GAA requires hurling players to wear a helmet with a facial guard meeting IS 355 or an applicable replacement standard determined by the National Standards Authority of Ireland (NSAI). GAA guidance also states that helmets must not be modified from their original manufactured state.
Purchasing or installing a replacement faceguard will result in a helmet being unsuitable for GAA use and no longer complying with applicable requirements. Customers are responsible for checking current competition rules and obtaining confirmation of compliance before use.
Faceguard World guarantees that none of their products are accepted by the GAA, any club, school, competition organiser, referee or insurance scheme.
