NogginLOC™

NogginLOC™ is a mechanical fastening “system” designed to keep chinstraps attached securely to helmets of all types. NogginLOC™ uses a unique recessed pin and socket attached to the helmet, and a unique receptacle fastener mounted on the chinstrap itself. When the two pieces are connected together, there is a secure connection that keeps the helmet safely on the head. NogginLOC™ is many more times secure than fasteners currently on the market. At the same time, when needed, NogginLOC™ can be very easily removed, even by small children.

Helmets fly off and injuries occur because of poor strap attachment design. The NogginLOC™ snap is designed to open only when you want it to. That’s a game-changer. Injuries occur because helmets come off during impacts. More padding, stronger straps, improved plastics — none of those will keep your child’s helmet in place. NogginLOC™ will.
