Shielding Helmet is the head piece of the four-part shielding suit — the only wearable protection against radiation in the Ala Industrial mod for Minecraft 26.2 Java Edition. Worn in the normal helmet slot, Shielding Helmet cuts 25% of every incoming dose from uranium ore, Enriched Uranium and reactor parts, and all four pieces together stop 100% of ordinary exposure. Shielding Helmet carries deliberately weak armour stats: protection 1 at the leather line, toughness 0, enchantability 10 and a durability factor of 15, the iron line. Shielding Helmet spends durability on any uranium contact — one point per second at a live reactor core, one every two seconds with Enriched Uranium in the pocket, one every eight seconds near uranium ore — which works out to roughly three minutes, five minutes and twenty-plus minutes of helmet life. A broken Shielding Helmet stops shielding until repaired with Rubber at an anvil.

Shielding Helmet is shaped on a vanilla crafting table from 3 Leather, 2 Rubber, 1 Yellow Dye and 1 Glass Pane for the visor; leather drops from mobs, Rubber comes from the Vulcanizer, and the dye is a crushed dandelion. Ala Industrial runs on Fabric and NeoForge, Java Edition only. On the player, Shielding Helmet hides the head behind a steel visor and a respirator, and the full set of helmet, chestplate, leggings and boots seals every pixel of the skin — wherever a piece is missing, skin stays visible and that share of the dose stays open. A dispenser can equip Shielding Helmet on a villager, a wandering trader or a cow, and a mob-worn suit never wears out. For long uranium hauls, step back from the source: one block away from a hot core triples the safe time, and three or four blocks cut the dose to almost nothing.
