V-Gard Cap for Front-Brim Head Protection
The MSA 477479 is a yellow polyethylene hard hat built to ANSI/ISEA Z 89.1-2014 and CSA Z 94.1-2005 Class E standards. It uses a 4-point ratchet suspension to fit head sizes from 6 to 7-1/8 and includes side slots for accessory mounting. The front brim style provides forward coverage without ventilation holes.
Suitable for Workers Needing Class E Insulation
This cap suits workers who require Type 1, Class E electrical protection and a secure ratchet fit. It is not for buyers who need a vented shell, high-visibility colours, or a full-brim design for all-around sun and rain deflection. The lack of graphics and vents also makes it unsuitable for roles requiring those specific features.
ANSI/ISEA Z 89.1-2014 Type 1 Class E Certification
The decisive specification is the ANSI/ISEA Z 89.1-2014 Type 1 Class E rating combined with the CSA Z 94.1-2005 Class E approval. This confirms the hat meets the required impact and electrical insulation standards for the job site. Verify that your site accepts these specific certifications before purchase.
