Helmet:

(Heb. kob'a), a cap for the defence of the head (1Sa 17:5,38). In the New Testament the Greek equivalent is used (Eph 6:17; 1Th 5:8). (See ARMS.)

Helmet:

hel'-met.

Vine's Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words
1 Strong's Number: g4030 Greek: perikephalaia

Helmet:

from peri, "around," and kephale, "a head," is used figuratively in Eph 6:17, with reference to salvation, and 1Th 5:8, where it is described as "the hope of salvation." The head is not to be regarded here as standing for the seat of the intellect; the word is not so used elsewhere in Scripture. In Eph 6:17 salvation is a present experience of the Lord's deliverance of believers as those who are engaged in spiritual conflict; in 1Th 5:8, the hope is that of the Lord's return, which encourages the believer to resist the spirit of the age in which he lives.
