Hard Hat Chin Straps


Chin Strap	Chin Strap with Chin Guard

Magnetic Chin Strap	Flame-Resistant Chin Strap

Hold your hard hat securely on your head with these chin straps. Connect them to your hard hat and adjust the strap length with a slider for a snug fit.

Flame Resistant—Flame-resistant straps reduce the risk of neck and chin burns when working in high temperatures or near open flames. Made of Kevlar and Nomex, they won’t break down in extreme heat.

Chin Strap with Chin Guard—For extra comfort, use straps with chin guard. These contoured cups hug your chin and protect it from scrapes.

Magnetic—Magnetic straps are easy to clip or unclip without removing your gloves. They attach to your hard hat in four places to ensure it stays secure on your head.

Climbing-Style Hard Hats

With a low profile, these hard hats give close-fitting protection to your head in confined spaces. They don’t have a brim, so you can see what’s above you and avoid snagging on climbing gear. Chin straps hold these hard hats in place when working in strong wind, upside down, and sideways. For protection from more than just falling objects, these hard hats are rated ANSI/ISEA Z89.1, Type II to deflect both top and off-center blows to the head. Made of ABS plastic, they resist impacts better than standard hard hats. A foam shell reduces the force on the head and neck during impact by absorbing the force.

To add a face shield, earmuffs, and other accessories, use the mounting slots on the sides.

Brimless—Class C

Class C hard hats have not been tested for electrical protection. They have ventilation holes that increase air flow to keep you cool.

Brim Grip—Hard hats with brim grip can be securely grasped by the back while wearing gloves. These hard hats also have a magnetic clasp, so you can connect and release the straps with one hand.

Brimless—Class C (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS))

Class C hard hats have not been tested for electrical protection. They have ventilation holes that increase air flow to keep you cool.

Hard hats with MIPS (multi-directional impact protection system) provide more protection to your brain than standard climbing-style hard hats. A low-friction layer inside the helmet allows your head to shift slightly during an impact. This shift directs rotational force away from the brain, so it causes less damage. These hard hats also have clamps for headlamp straps.

Hat-Style Bump Caps


Style C		Black

Combine style and safety with these caps. Inside each cap is a protective insert for added defense against minor bumps and scrapes. If the insert cracks or you require a different style, such as one to fit over long hair, we offer replacement inserts.

Ranger Bump Cap—Ranger hats have a wide, wraparound brim to protect your head and neck when working in the sun. Wear the brim down or strapped up. They are lightweight and breathable to keep you cool.

Vented—Vented caps increase air circulation to keep you cool.

Breakaway Chin Strap—Caps with a breakaway chin strap will disconnect if your hat gets caught, reducing your risk of injury from snags.

Flame- and Arc-Flash-Protection Hard Hat Liners

Often used in utility work, metalworking, and welding, these hard-hat liners meet NFPA 70E to protect from flames and electrical arc flashes. They also shield your head and nape from the wind and cold. Secure the liner to your hard hat with the attached hook and loop tabs on each side. Choose a hard-hat liner that meets the arc rated personal protective equipment (PPE) category required by your workplace.

Lightweight Carbon Fiber Hard Hats


Full Brim—Class C (Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS))	Ratchet Adjustment

Lightweight yet strong and durable, carbon fiber hard hats protect your head and you can wear them all day. They resist heat better than HDPE hard hats, making them a good choice for foundries, refineries, and other environments with high ambient heat. These hard hats are rated Type I to protect against blows to the top of the head only. They're also designated as Class C, which means they're not tested for electrical protection. For a snug fit, turn a knob on the back of the helmet to tighten suspension. A sweatband prevents perspiration from getting into your eyes, and mounting slots allow for attachments like face shields and earmuffs.

Full Brim—Full brim hard hats protect your head and neck from sun, rain, glare, and splashes.

Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS)—Hard hats with a Multi-Directional Impact Protection System (MIPS) help prevent brain injuries during an accident. They have a low-friction layer inside the helmet, which allows your head to shift slightly during impact. This slight shift directs rotational force away from the brain, reducing your risk of injury. They are also forged, which makes them an additional 25% lighter than woven hard hats without sacrificing safety. The chin strap keeps the hard hat securely on your head.

Hard Hats for Top and Side Impacts

Protect your head from more than just falling objects—these hard hats are rated ANSI/ISEA Z89.1, Type II to deflect both top and off-center blows to the head. A foam shell helps absorb impact to reduce force on the head and neck. Tighten a knob on the back of these hard hats for a snug and comfortable fit. To prevent perspiration from getting into your eyes, all have a sweatband. Use the mounting slots to attach accessories such as earmuffs (not included).

Add a face shield (sold separately) that slides down over the full hat brim to guard your face. The toric shape of the shield closely follows the shape of your face to protect your chin and provide a wide peripheral field of vision. These shields meet ANSI Z87.1+ standards. Quickly replace the shield with the streamlined attachment system. Press-to-release slotted adapters make it easy to remove the brackets from the hard hat. Use a shade 5 welding face shield for optimal visibility and protection from harmful light and radiation.

Full Brim—Class C


	4 Suspension Points

Class C hard hats have not been tested for electrical protection. These hats have ventilation holes to keep you cool.

Chin Strap Included—Hard hats with a chin strap stay securely on your head. They’re useful for windy conditions and working at heights. They’re also good for active movement such as climbing, working sideways, and working upside down. All chin straps have a magnetic lock, so they’re easy to connect and release with one hand.

Full Brim—Class C (Koroyd)

Image of Specification. Front orientation. ZoomedIn view. Contains Annotated, Border. Ratchet Adjustment. Hard Hats for Top and Side Impacts.

Class C hard hats have not been tested for electrical protection. These hats have ventilation holes to keep you cool.

Hard hats with a Koroyd helmet safety system have a layer of small tubes that crumple upon impact to lessen blunt force to your head. Koroyd weighs less than comparable helmet safety systems because it is 95% air. Built-in padding with high-purity silver eliminates odor and bacteria, while a comfort liner helps for all-day wear. For frequent headlamp users, these hard hats have built-in strap clips that keep your lamp securely in place. An integrated TwICEme chip with near-field communication (NFC) technology helps to save lives in an accident. The chip stores emergency contacts and health information and sends your precise location to help first responders. A low profile gives these hard hats a sleek look.

Often used in search and rescue operations, these helmets have rail mounts for night vision goggles, headsets, and other equipment. With devices secure and hands free, you can focus on your mission. Their polystyrene liner protects the neck and head by absorbing force during impact. To hold the helmet secure on your head, a ratchet in the back adjusts the fit. Chin straps keep the helmet in place when working upside down and in heavy wind. These helmets meet U.S. safety standards for military operations and European safety standards for whitewater sports and mountaineering, protecting your head in a variety of extreme environments.

To keep you cool under pressure, the helmets have ventilation holes and moisture-wicking padding. Snap the included vent covers on when you need to keep dust and debris out. They also have a sweatband to prevent perspiration from getting in your eyes.

Use a headlamp adapter (sold separately) to attach a light to the night vision goggle mount without needing to use tools. The adapter holds the lamp firmly to the helmet so it doesn't slide off during use.

Use headset adapters or headset and boom microphone adapters (both sold separately) to clip communication systems onto the helmet. Once the adapters are installed, you can take the communication systems on and off without tools. Headset adapters are compatible with helmet-mounted headsets. Headset and boom microphone adapters let you convert headsets with a headband or neckband to helmet mount. Once attached, the headset earpieces can be flipped up when you’re not using them so it’s easier to take the helmet off quickly. They also include a boom microphone adapter.

Add a visor (sold separately) to the helmet for eye protection. No need for tools—just snap it on. Once attached, you can lift the visor away from the face and lock it in the up position. A coating on the inside and outside resists scratching. These visors are rated EN 166:2002 Class 2B for clarity and impact resistance to protect from debris, water, and wind.

Hard Hats with Clear Brim

Often used when operating a crane or climbing a ladder, these hard hats won’t block your view of what’s above you. With a see-through brim, they increase peripheral visibility by 50% compared to standard hard hats with a full brim. Clear in the front and opaque in the back, the brim wraps all the way around to keep rain off your head and sun off your neck. Swap in a gray visor (sold separately) for a shaded view in full-sun environments. A built-in sweatband keeps perspiration out of your eyes.

Rated Type I, these hard hats protect the top of your head from falling objects. They’re also rated Class E and have been tested at 20,000 volts for electrical insulation. Adjust the suspension with a ratchet for a snug fit. Use the mounting slots to attach face shields, earmuffs, and other equipment.
