Simple helmets can be manufactured at a [[fueled smithy|fueled]] or [[electric smithy]] with a [[Skills#Crafting|crafting]] skill of at least 5. Requires 40 [[metal]]lic materials and {{Ticks|3200}} of work. Usage of different materials enhances protection offered and durability.

Requires 40 metallic materials and 100 seconds of work (6,000 ticks), assuming baseline global work speed and no enhancements or hindrances to [[consciousness]], [[sight]], or [manipulation]]. Usage of different materials enhances protection offered and durability.

== Analysis ==
Simple helmets are a relatively cheap way to protect the head, a vital part of any pawn. They don't provide much insultation - if temperature is an issue, you may want to wear hats like a [[cowboy hat]] or [[tuque]] instead. In the early game, or when dealing with large numbers of pawns, the simple helmet provides a decent amount of protection for a small amount of resources.

Simple Helmets are one of the five main types protective headgear in the base game (the others being the [[war mask]], [[flak helmet]], [[recon helmet]], [[marine helmet]]), six if including the [[Royalty (DLC)| Royalty DLC]] (which also adds [[cataphract helmet]]). They have a remarkable lifespan due to the inferior damage absorption, especially if made out of Plasteel. Simple helmets are intermediate in terms of mass with a mass of 2kg, whereas advanced helmets have a mass of 1.2kg and power armor helmets have a mass of 2.7kg.
  
 
Protection offered by a simple helmet depends on its [[quality]] and [[material]]. It has a material effect multiplier of 50% for all types of damage.

=== Comparisons ===
+
* Prior to Alpha 17, it was known as the Military helmet. In Alpha 17, it has been renamed, received a slight buff to protection and no longer required components.
*A steel simple helmet can beat all but the highest [[quality]] [[war mask]]s, and is on par with an expensive [[hyperweave]] [[veil]], beating all other materials.
+
*In Beta 19 it became cheaper, and materials now affect armor rating. It also protects against heat.
*A steel [[flak helmet]] beats even a plasteel simple helmet. However, flak helmets require [[component]]s (often in high demand) and [[plasteel]] (which may be hard to get early on).
+
 
 
Simple helmets are fairly heavy with a mass of 2kg - tied for the heaviest headpiece with the [[cataphract helmet]] {{RoyaltyIcon}}. However, this is unlikely to be relevant in most circumstances.

{{Ideology|section=1}}
 
[[Ideoligion]]s allow the selection of styles which then change the texture of the certain items and buildings when constructed by the colony. These style variants can be crafted if the colony has the selected style, or can be looted from raiders from factions with the requisite style.
