Overview of the SureFire HL1 MICH Helmet Mount | HLM-01-TN
The SureFire HL1 MICH Helmet Mount (HLM-01-TN) is a low-profile tan ratchet mount that clamps to the rim of a Modular Integrated Communications Helmet (MICH) and holds a SureFire HL1 HelmetLight. Use it to replace a cracked or worn factory mount, or to set up a second helmet so one light moves between them.
Your light slides on and locks in place. A lever on the mount releases it for a battery change, servicing, or transfer.
Hands-Free Light Where You Look
SureFire builds 20 preset positions into the mount, so you can turn the light a full 360 degrees and click it exactly where you need it. Soldiers, SWAT operators, and search and rescue teams keep both hands free for weapons, radios, maps, and patients.
Why It Matters
-
Fast release: press the lever and the HL1 comes off without tools.
-
Ambidextrous: mount it on the left or right side of the helmet rim.
-
Factory fit: SureFire's own replacement mount for the HL1 system.
Key Features
-
Light compatibility: Fits SureFire HL1 HelmetLights, including the HL1-A, HL1-B, HL1-C, and HL1-D models. Shop the SureFire HL1 Helmet Light if you need the light.
-
360-degree rotation: 20 preset click positions let you aim the beam and keep it there.
-
Quick-release lever: Unlocks the light for battery changes, servicing, or moving it to the optional Z71 carry clip for MOLLE or ALICE gear.
-
Secure clamp: Installs semi-permanently on the helmet rim with two socket-head machine screws.
-
Durable build: Glass-filled nylon polymer and neoprene, molded in tan.
-
Weight context: SureFire lists the HL1 light at 2.4 oz and the light with its mount at 4.0 oz.
- Made in the USA.

Compatibility
-
Helmets: Designed for MICH helmets. SureFire's product text also lists the ACH, LWH, and PASGT helmets.
-
Lights: Built for SureFire HL1 HelmetLights. It is not a universal clamp for other brands' helmet lights.
-
Ops-Core helmets: For Ops-Core helmets or ARC rails, choose the SureFire HL1 HelmetLight Adapter ADPT-HL1-OC instead.
-
Rails: This mount clamps to the helmet rim. It does not attach to Picatinny rails.
-
Tools: Installation uses two socket-head machine screws, so keep the matching hex key on hand.
Intended Users
Military service members use the HLM-01-TN to run an HL1 HelmetLight on a MICH helmet for night movement, map reading, and close work. SWAT and tactical team officers mount it for hands-free light during searches and breaches. Search and rescue crews rely on it when both hands are busy with ropes, litters, or patients. Unit armorers and supply staff stock it to replace broken mounts, and civilian preppers who own a MICH-style helmet use it to complete their low-light kit.
