What are the special features of the helmet's bell (comb and brim) compared to other helmet shapes of the Renaissance, and is the steel suitable for staged combat?

The morion helmet is distinguished by its tall helmet bowl with a prominent crest and a wide, upturned brim that tapers to a point at the ends, resembling a boat shape. With a material thickness of 1.2 mm, this steel is primarily intended for decoration, reenactment, or costuming; its thinness makes it unsuitable for staged combat involving hard impacts.
Which historical branches of the armed forces preferred to wear this type of helmet, and during which period was the morion primarily in use?

The morion was primarily used in the 16th and early 17th centuries. It was favored by pikemen, conquistadors, and other infantry units of pike-and-gun formations, as well as by city guards.
