MSA V-Gard H2 Safety Helmet, Non-Vented, ANSI Type II, Class E, Comfortable Ratchet Suspension

MSA V-Gard H2 Non-Vented Type II Class E Safety Helmet

The MSA V-Gard H2 is a low-profile industrial safety helmet engineered to help protect against both top and lateral impacts. This non-vented, non-Mips configuration meets ANSI/ISEA Z89.1-2014 (R2019) Type II, Class E requirements, making it suitable for workplaces requiring Type II impact protection and Class E electrical classification.

An integrated 4-point chinstrap helps keep the helmet securely positioned during slips, trips, falls and demanding work at height. The full-contact ratchet suspension can be adjusted while wearing gloves, while the replaceable sweatband, crown pad and ratchet pad provide enhanced comfort during extended wear.

The sweatband and comfort pads feature Ionic+ antimicrobial treatment with high-purity silver to help control odor-causing bacteria. Integrated headlamp clips make it easier to secure a compatible light without adding a separate elastic strap.

The V-Gard H2 also supports a broad selection of compatible MSA V-Gard H1 and V-Gard accessories, including face protection, hearing protection and replacement comfort components.
