Self-Adjusting StrapsThe double bands/straps fitted to the Fas-Trac III Suspension maximize quality and comfort while helping to keep you safe. The principle function of the double straps is to absorb energy in the event of impact, distributing it to the four support points, at the same time as it embraces the user’s head, forming a shock-absorbing system. In addition, it only has a single stitching point, which makes equipment inspection easier and helps to provide for the everyday safety of the worker |
SizesOnly a market leader understands the need for greater coverage in pursuit of satisfying all workers. As well as being extremely comfortable, the MSA V-Gard cap and suspension system come in three different sizes, offering the widest range of fit in the market (6–81/2”). helping to provide the perfect fit for a diverse work force. |
SweatbandFor MSA, it’s not efficient if it’s not comfortable. The basis for everything is comfort, and that’s why MSA is always looking for new technologies and solutions that meet the demands of an ever changing workforce. With the aim of absorbing the maximum amount of the user’s sweat, the sweatband on the Fas-Trac III Suspension is made of a coated and perforated foam, which together ensure absorption, sweat evaporation, worker comfort, and easy cleaning. The sweatband fitted to the V-Gard is supplied stitched-on, to avoid the loss or unnecessary replacement of items. |
