V-Gard® C1 Hard Hat
V-Gard® C1™ Hard Hat
The Coolest Hard Hat on the Market
The MSA V-Gard C1™ Hard hat with RelectIR™ thermal barrier helps to alleviate heat stress. According to OSHA, heat is the leading cause of death among all weather-related phenomena, and it is becoming more dangerous as 18 of the last 19 years were the hottest on record.
The V-Gard C1™ Hard Hat uses patent-pending ReflectIR™ Thermal Barrier technology to keep the inside of the hard hat up to 11°C cooler* in sunny weather, making it the coolest hard hat on the market compared to those without ReflectIR™.
