Key Features

  • Stars and stripes graphics on a polyethylene shell.
  • Ratchet adjustment helps establish a secure, comfortable fit.
  • Nape adjustments allow the suspension to sit appropriately at the back of the head.
  • Accessory slots accommodate compatible equipment approved by MSA.

Common Uses

  • Construction sites requiring Type I head protection.
  • Manufacturing and production facilities.
  • Industrial repair and maintenance departments.
  • General plant work with identified overhead hazards.

Choosing Head Protection for the Job

Type I identifies top-impact protection. This cap should not replace a Type II helmet where the hazard assessment requires lateral-impact protection. Class E describes the helmet’s electrical classification; it does not authorize energized work or replace other required electrical protective equipment. The decorative graphics do not establish a high-visibility rating.

Under OSHA 29 CFR 1910.135, employers must provide appropriate protective helmets where falling objects present a head-injury risk, and electrical protection where exposed conductors could contact the head. OSHA 29 CFR 1926.100 addresses head protection in construction. Selection must match the actual task and exposure.

Fit, Inspection and Accessories

Adjust the suspension before starting work and inspect both shell and suspension for damage or deterioration. Follow MSA’s replacement instructions after an impact. Use compatible replacement parts and verify accessory compatibility before adding face or hearing protection. Do not drill the shell or make unapproved modifications.

FAQ

Is this a full-brim hard hat?

No. Model 10052945 is a slotted cap-style hard hat from MSA’s American Freedom Series.

Can this hard hat be worn backward?

Only when the helmet carries the reverse-donning marking and the suspension is installed as MSA instructs. Do not assume every helmet configuration allows reverse wear.

Does it include a face shield or earmuffs?

This listing is for the hard hat. Select any additional protective equipment separately and verify compatibility with MSA.
