  • Adjustable ratchet suspension for a precise fit

Adjustable Ratchet Headgear

The 3M H8A 82501 headgear is designed for workers who need reliable head-mounted face protection in industrial or automotive environments. It uses a thermoplastic partial crown with a deluxe ratchet suspension for a precise fit. The blue headgear accepts compatible faceshields for high-impact coverage. Protective eyewear is sold separately and must be added by the user.

ANSI Z87.1 2010 Compliance Scope

This headgear meets the ANSI Z87.1 2010 standard only when paired with the proper headgear and visor combination. The dielectric construction provides electrical insulation for relevant tasks. It is specifically built for use with AOTuffmaster faceshields. Buyers using other shield brands or outdated visors will not achieve the rated protection level.

Five-Position Pin-Lock Crown Strap

The suspension system uses a five-position pin-lock crown strap to secure the headgear. This mechanism determines whether the unit stays stable during active work. If the adjustment range does not match the wearer's head size, the fit will be insecure. No other suspension style is offered on this model.
