Infinity NVG: SIDE-SWIPE Helmet Counterweight (Ops-Core Helmets)

SIDE-SWIPE Helmet Counterweight System

Modular Counterweight 

Designed to improve helmet balance and reduce neck fatigue when running night vision devices (NODs), the SIDE-SWIPE Helmet Counterweight System provides a practical, low-profile counterweight solution for operational helmet configurations.

Durable Construction

Constructed from laser-cut 500D Cordura and featuring a hook-and-loop mounting interface, the SIDE-SWIPE incorporates five individual weighted bricks, each weighing 100 grams, allowing users to configure up to 500 grams of counterweight depending on their equipment and preferences.  Designed for operational / duty use.

Signature Management

Beyond traditional counterweight functionality, the SIDE-SWIPE features an integrated rubberized selector that allows users to switch between three rear-facing signature management modes:

• SWIPE LEFT – Reflective/Glint: Rear-facing reflective identification.

• CENTRED – Blackout: Discreet, non-reflective blacked-out configuration.

• SWIPE RIGHT – IR: Infrared reflective identification.

Unlike conventional reflective or IR patches, the integrated sliding selector eliminates exposed patch edges that can become snagged, damaged, or worn through regular use.

Dual Helmet Compatibility

Kit includes 1 set of short and 1 set of long mounting screws for bump and ballistic helmet configurations

Built for demanding environments, the SIDE-SWIPE combines adjustable counterweighting, durable materials, and selectable signature management in one streamlined package.

Optimized for Ops-Core Helmets

The SIDE-SWIPE is currently designed for Ops-Core helmet applications, but Team Wendy versions are in the works

Available now in Black, Multicam, Multicam Black, Ranger Green, and Coyote.
