ergodyne Skullerz 8964-MIPS Type 2 Full-Brim Safety Helmet (60611)

Product Description

The Skullerz 8964-MIPS Type 2 Full Brim Safety Helmet is a Class C Safety Helmet with integrated Mips technology designed to increase worker head protection by helping reduce the effect of dangerous angled impacts. The Mips Evolve Pro safety system is a low-friction layer that slides multi-directionally upon angled impact with the intention of reducing the transmission of rotational force to the head. Like other Skullerz Safety Helmets, this Mips helmet provides heavy-duty yet lightweight and comfortable head protection to shield the front, back, top and sides of the head from falls, dropped objects or bumping into stationary objects. Compact helmet design increases all-over impact protection and improves visibility. Chin strap and pad ensure the helmet remains secure to the wearer's head upon impact or sudden movement. Lightweight, minimal EPS foam halo inside the shell provides all-around impact protection. Removable COOLMAX hard-hat sweatband and top pad are made from breathable, sweat-wicking, machine-washable materials for added comfort. Suspension ratchet pivots up and down to accommodate bandanas or ponytail knots, ensuring a more customizable, secure fit. Unlike traditional hard hats and safety helmets which are designed primarily to protect against direct impacts, this safety helmet features Mips technology for protection against angled impacts, a common form of impact that occurs upon falling or contact to the sides of the head. Mips Evolve Pro is a low-friction layer designed to slide multi-directionally (10-15mm) upon certain angled impacts to help reduce rotational force to the head. When parts of the brain move relative to each other as a result of rotational force, the tissues can stretch potentially leading to life-altering Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs). Suspension and shell design of this helmet provides added side, front and back protection. Safety helmet meets standard Class C helmet requirements for ANSI/ISEA Z89.1-2014, Type 2, Class C standard. It fits hat sizes 6.5 - 8 (21" to 25"). The size of the height-adjustable, 6-point suspension is easy to dial in using the one-handed, LockFit ratchet system. Simply pull the rear knob out and twist to tighten or loosen the fit, and push knob in to securely lock in place. Built with weight distribution in mind, this safety helmet has a snug and balanced fit. Adjustable chin strap (included) secures the helmet to the head and ensures it does not dislodge if the worker falls or is impacted by another object. This safety helmet includes front and rear slots for secure attachment of Skullerz Hard Hat Headlamps plus side slots for other common accessories such as ear protection and face shields. It is ideal for those working at heights or needing a full-brim helmet as well as construction/utility jobsites, oil & gas, road work, forestry, mining and general site work.
