Original US military M1 helmet suspension assembly in unissued surplus condition.
Drop-In Helmet Restoration
This genuine cradle replaces worn webbing in post-Vietnam and late Cold War M1 helmet liners. Built to Supergrade unissued surplus standard, it clips directly into internal liner studs without any sewing or riveting required.
Secure Webbing and Steel Clips
Constructed with durable olive drab nylon webbing, the harness features steel attachment clips and adjustment buckles. It forms a central crown suspension that keeps the steel pot elevated away from your head to absorb impact and improve ventilation.
Original US Military Markings
Each unit features original black ink stampings including the official contract details, manufacturer markings, and NSN 8470-00-880-8814. The universal layout fits standard US ground troops helmet liners for accurate field setups.
Complete your steel pot restoration or reenactment loadout with this genuine unissued M1 suspension assembly.
This item was used by the US Army during the Late Cold War (1961–1991) and is in Grade 1 condition. It is in very good condition with plenty of life left. We recommend giving it a wash before wearing.
Grade 1 represents solid, fully functional military surplus that has been deployed or issued but remains in great usable condition with plenty of life left.
- Functionality: 100% field-ready. All main zippers, press studs, drawstrings, and buckles work as intended with no critical faults.
- Fabric & Wear: Structurally sound with light cosmetic wear, minor abrasion, or subtle fading from normal military use and laundering.
- Markings & Personalisation: May feature soldier names, unit numbers, service markings, or light depot stamps written on tags or fabric.
- Repairs: May include neat, professional military-standard stitches or minor reinforcement patches that do not compromise gear integrity.
- Storage & Cleanliness: Gear is serviceable straight out of the box, though a standard initial wash or airing is recommended to clear typical military surplus storage scent and minor handling dust.
