I could be wrong but that looks like an old Freon can helm made back in the late 70's or early 80's.

Thanks William

Go with at least 3/8 to 1/2 it will hold up bettrt than 1/4 will. If you can curve them it will help with the strength of the shield also. Just my suggestion any questions I'm me.

It will come down to two things one is the way the helm is padded and the other is the chin strap how they use it or strap it.
