The Original V-Gard Design
MSA has sold well over 100 million V-Gard helmets since introducing the trademark “V” design, and the shape has become a fixture on job sites across nearly every industry. This 463943 model is the blue, front-brim, cap-style version, built on the same polyethylene shell and self-adjusting suspension that’s made V-Gard the reference point for hard hats.
Impact and Electrical Protection
The hat meets ANSI Z89.1-2014 and CSA Z94.1-2015 requirements, with an ANSI Impact Rating of Type I and an Electrical Class Rating of Class E. Class E hard hats are tested to withstand higher voltage than Class C or G, which matters directly for utility and electrical crews.
Staz-On 4-Point Pin-Lock Suspension
The 4-point Staz-On suspension uses a pin-lock adjustment to dial in a snug, stable fit, and the self-adjusting crown straps help distribute the hat’s weight evenly. The shell is slotted for ventilation and for attaching compatible accessories.
Fits a Standard Range of Head Sizes
This model fits head sizes 6-1/2″ to 8″, covering most adult users without needing a separate small or large shell.
