This is a 2012 Lazer Helium cycling helmet. They came with this silicone gel pad. I had one of these and loved it. Lazer does not make/sell these any more after they were bought out by Shimano-America.
These pads were odd in how they were packaged originally and had no form of branding, hinting that they may have been sourced from some other industry or application. Search engines are garbage when I try to find the abstract application keyword for wherever these originated from due to advertising disinformation obliterating anything remotely useful. I imagine these may come from something like surgeons to prevent sweat contamination or for very hot environments like mines or foundry work. Does anyone know of applications where they have seen a pad like this sold or used?
From googling a couple keywords, looks a lot like something I’m seeing a product from MET helmets that they’re calling a “Dual Gel Front Pad” that seems similar if not exactly the same.
