Buy the Masuri E Line Titanium Cricket Helmet: Eye-Line Grille and Neck Guard in One
Overview
The Masuri E Line titanium cricket helmet is a premium helmet for serious club and league batters. It pairs a grade 5 titanium grille with the patented Eye-Line design. It meets BS 7928:2013+A1:2019 and comes pre-fitted with the StemGuard Lite 2.0.
The E Line began life as the Elite helmet in Masuri's Original Series. Masuri started out making grilles in Cape Town in 1988, and the grille is still the heart of this helmet. The Eye-Line design adds protection for the face, while grade 5 titanium keeps the weight down. With less mass in front of your face, the helmet feels balanced when you sway or duck under a bouncer.
The UK season has just closed, so winter nets and pre-season fitness are next. Buying now gives you months to get used to the helmet before April. It also makes a premium Christmas gift for a committed club cricketer.
Features
- Patented Eye-Line grille: Masuri's own faceguard design, built to give added protection for the face. It is the feature behind the E in E Line.
- Grade 5 titanium: a strong, light titanium alloy that does not rust. Less weight at the front means less neck fatigue through a long innings.
- StemGuard Lite 2.0 included: guards the back of the head and neck. You expose this area when you turn from a bouncer or top edge a hook. It comes fitted, so you save a separate purchase.
- Single shell protection: one strong, light shell absorbs and spreads impact. It keeps the overall helmet light for full days in the field.
- Airflow cooling system: vents move air through the shell. This helps on hot July afternoons and in stuffy indoor nets.
- Four colours, four sizes: Navy, Green, Black and Maroon, from Small to Extra Large. That covers heads from 55cm to 64cm.
Design and Materials
The defining part of this helmet is the faceguard. Masuri's patented Eye-Line grille is designed to add protection for the face. Here it is made from grade 5 titanium. Grade 5 is a titanium alloy known for its high strength to weight ratio. It also does not rust, which helps after wet days in the field.
The grille sits on Masuri's single shell, built for impact protection without extra bulk. Airflow vents run through the shell to release heat. The StemGuard Lite 2.0 clips to the back of the helmet with moulded clips. Masuri designs its stem guards to protect the neck without restricting head movement at the crease.
Key Technologies
Eye-Line Grille: Masuri's patented faceguard design for added face protection. It is the defining feature of every E Line helmet.
Grade 5 Titanium: A strong, light alloy used for the grille. It keeps weight off the front of the helmet for better balance.
Single Shell Protection: Masuri's one piece shell absorbs and spreads impact. It does this while keeping the helmet light.
StemGuard Lite 2.0: A clip-on guard for the back of the head and neck. It covers the gap below the shell that a helmet alone leaves open.

VKS Review
The Masuri E Line titanium cricket helmet is for batters who face pace regularly and want the Eye-Line grille. The titanium keeps it light at the front, so it sits steady when you sway inside a short ball. The included StemGuard Lite 2.0 completes the protection package without an extra purchase.
The trade-off is price. It costs more than the T Line Titanium, which has a titanium grille but not the Eye-Line design. For the Eye-Line grille with a matt pro style shell and a carry bag, step up to the E Line Plus. Occasional batters may get better value from a steel helmet. VKS has sold cricket kit for over 50 years. You can also visit our London store in Ealing to try this before you buy.
Q&A Section
Does the E Line Titanium come with a stem guard?
Yes, Masuri supplies it pre-fitted with the StemGuard Lite 2.0. The guard covers the back of the head and upper neck. It clips on, so you can take it off to clean the helmet.
What is the Eye-Line grille?
It is Masuri's patented faceguard design, made to give added protection for the face. It is what separates the E Line from the T Line range. On this helmet it is made from grade 5 titanium to keep weight down.
Which is better, the E Line or the E Line Plus?
Both have a titanium Eye-Line grille and the StemGuard Lite 2.0. The E Line Plus adds a matt painted OS3 shell styled on Masuri's custom range, plus a carry bag. Choose the E Line for value and the Plus for the pro style finish.
Should I choose the E Line or the T Line Titanium?
Choose the E Line if face protection is your priority, because it has the Eye-Line grille. The T Line Titanium costs less and has a traditional cloth-covered shell. Both use grade 5 titanium and include the stem guard.
What size cricket helmet do I need?
Measure around your head about 1cm above the eyebrows. Small fits 55 to 58cm, Medium 58 to 60cm, Large 60 to 62cm and Extra Large 62 to 64cm. If you sit between sizes, try both, as a helmet that rocks will not protect you properly.
Is the E Line Titanium safe for club cricket?
Yes, it meets BS 7928:2013+A1:2019, the current British Standard for cricket helmets. That standard tests the shell and grille together against ball impacts. No helmet removes all risk, so replace it after any heavy blow.
Can I try the Masuri E Line titanium cricket helmet in store?
Yes, it is available in our Ealing store and online with free UK delivery on orders over £100. You can compare it side by side with the T Line and E Line Plus. Our team will also help you choose the right size.
When should I replace my cricket helmet?
Replace it after any hard impact to the shell or grille. A big hit can weaken the helmet even when no damage shows. Check the grille, shell and stem guard clips before each new season.
