Full-Brim Coverage From the Original V-Gard
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 full-brim version wraps protection all the way around, shielding the face, neck, and shoulders from sun, rain, and overhead hazards that a cap-style hat leaves exposed.
High-Density Polyethylene Shell With UV Inhibitor
The shell is high-density polyethylene with a UV inhibitor, built for superior top impact protection across industrial and construction environments. The hat carries an ANSI Impact Rating of Type I and an Electrical Class Rating of Class E, tested to withstand higher voltage than Class C or G — a real consideration for utility and electrical crews working around live equipment.
Fas-Trac III Ratchet Suspension
The Fas-Trac III suspension uses flush rear lug attachments to eliminate pressure points and a contoured comfort pad to prevent hair-pulling. Three levels of nape strap adjustment let a worker fully customize the fit for continued, comfortable wear through a long shift, and the ratchet knob adjusts quickly without tools.
Slotted for Over 100 MSA Accessories
The slotted shell design is compatible with more than 100 MSA accessories — sun shades, face shields, liners, and lamps — so the hat adapts to different tasks without buying a new helmet.
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.
