Sportmask X8/T3 Replacement Cage CSA Certified (Stainless)

The Sportmask X8/T3 Certified Stainless Replacement Cage is a polished straight-bar replacement offered in long-cage and short-cage configurations. Sportmask identifies its long straight-bar cage as standard on medium and large certified X8 and T3 masks, while the short version is intended for extra-small and small certified openings. The correct option depends on shell model, size and opening geometry rather than the desired finish.

Sportmask certified stainless cage features

• Polished stainless construction: The uncoated stainless finish provides a durable traditional appearance and avoids paint chips.
• Certified straight-bar layout: The cage is intended for an approved certified Sportmask mask configuration when the model and size match.
• Long-cage compatibility: The LC option is associated with medium and large certified X8/T3 masks and selected long-opening Pro models.
• Short-cage compatibility: The SC option is associated with extra-small and small Sportmask openings and selected short-opening models.
• In-house Sportmask cage geometry: The replacement is shaped for Sportmask mounting points and model-specific face openings.
• Hardware inspection before installation: Clips, screws, posts and washers should be checked for wear and replaced when necessary.
• League-label confirmation: Certification markings on the cage and finished mask should be verified before sanctioned use.

How do you confirm stainless cage compatibility?

Match the replacement to the exact shell model, size and existing long- or short-cage opening. The SC and LC versions are not interchangeable. Check the original certification label and mounting arrangement, and ensure the new cage sits evenly without contacting the shell or requiring reshaping. The Goalie Crease can help identify the correct variant from clear photos of the mask, existing cage and interior labels.
