The MSA Skullgard hard hats are made with phenolic material rather than a traditional plastic (like most other safety helmets). The phenolic design is popular with ship building, construction and especially the welding industry. These phenolic hard hats are made to face the conditions of high temperature environments as well as every day usage.
Skullgard protective hats and caps are useful for Agriculture, Asbestos Abatement, Chemical, Construction, Electric Utility, Hazardous Materials, Mining, Nuclear, Oil and Gas, Paper and Pulp, Sand Blasting, Grinding, Water/Wastewater, and Welding.
ANSI Z89.1-2003 Type I Standard Compliant.
Type I Hard Hats are intended to reduce the force of impact resulting from a blow only to the top of the head. This form of impact, for example, may result from a hammer or nail gun falling from above.
ANSI/ISEA Z89.1-2014 (Class G) Compliant.
Class G (General) Hard Hats are designed to reduce exposure
to low voltage conductors, and offer dielectric protection up to 2,200
volts (phase to ground). As is the case with Class E hard hats, this
amount of voltage protection is designated to the head only, and does
not account for voltage protection allocated to the user as a whole.
