Pro Look, Lighter Grille: Buy the Masuri T Line Plus Titanium Cricket Helmet with StemGuard
Overview
The Masuri T Line Plus titanium cricket helmet is a matt painted, pro styled helmet for serious club batters. Its single-bar titanium faceguard is Masuri's ultra lightweight option. It meets BS 7928:2013+A1:2019 and comes pre-fitted with the StemGuard Lite 2.0 neck guard.
The T Line Plus belongs to Masuri's OS3 range. Its painted shell mirrors the TF3D custom helmets Masuri builds for professional cricketers. Masuri says the T Line specification is trusted by players including Joe Root, Usman Khawaja and Tom Latham. Pairing that look with a titanium grille gives you the lightest feel at the front of the helmet.
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 standout Christmas present, with a yellow Masuri carry bag in the box.
Features
- Single-bar titanium faceguard: Masuri's ultra lightweight grille option. Less weight at the front helps the helmet stay balanced as you move.
- 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.
- Matt painted OS3 shell: a clean, modern finish styled on Masuri's TF3D custom range. It gives you the look of the professional game.
- Single shell protection: one strong, light shell spreads impact without extra bulk. Combined with titanium, it keeps total weight low.
- Airflow cooling system: vents move air through the shell. This helps on hot July afternoons and in stuffy indoor nets.
- Yellow carry bag included: protects the helmet and grille in your kit bag. It also stops the grille snagging on pads and gloves.
- Four colours, four sizes: Navy, Green, Maroon and Black, from Small to Extra Large. That covers heads from 55cm to 64cm.
Design and Materials
The T Line Plus Titanium combines Masuri's two main upgrades in one helmet. The first is the matt painted OS3 shell, which replaces the cloth cover of the standard T Line. That finish comes from the TF3D custom range, the made to measure helmets Masuri builds for professionals. The second is the titanium faceguard.
Titanium is strong and light, and it does not rust. Masuri describes this single-bar faceguard as ultra lightweight. The saving sits at the front of the helmet, where you feel it most when you duck or sway. The StemGuard Lite 2.0 clips to the back with moulded clips. Masuri designs its stem guards to protect the neck without restricting head movement at the crease.
Key Technologies
Single-Bar Titanium Faceguard: An ultra lightweight titanium grille certified with the shell. It cuts weight where it matters most, at the front.
OS3 Shell Design: Masuri's newer Original Series shape, styled after its TF3D custom helmets. You get a pro inspired look in standard sizes.
Single Shell Protection: Masuri's one piece shell absorbs and spreads impact. It keeps the helmet light for a full day in the field.
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
This helmet brings both T Line upgrades together in one package. The matt shell looks modern, and the titanium grille makes it feel light and balanced at the front. It stays steady when you sway inside a short ball. The included stem guard and carry bag round off the package.
The trade-off is price. You pay a clear premium over the T Line Plus Steel for the titanium grille. Batters who play only occasionally may get better value from the steel version. If you prefer a traditional cloth finish, look at the T Line Titanium instead. 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 T Line Plus 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.
Is a titanium grille worth the extra cost?
Yes, if you bat for long spells or face quick bowling often. Titanium is lighter than steel, which reduces neck fatigue and helps the helmet feel balanced. Occasional batters may find the steel version better value.
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.
Which is better, the T Line Plus Titanium or the T Line Titanium?
Both have a titanium grille and come with StemGuard Lite 2.0. The Plus has a matt painted shell and a carry bag. The standard T Line Titanium has a cloth cover, foam liners and side plates, so choose the finish you prefer.
Is this the same helmet professionals wear?
It shares its look with the TF3D custom helmets many professionals wear. TF3D helmets are made to measure, while the T Line Plus comes in standard sizes. That makes it a far more affordable route to the pro style.
Is the T Line Plus 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 T Line Plus 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 hold it next to the steel version to feel the difference. 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.
