| Roughneck P2A hat for extreme work environments  Honeywell Safety Products (HSP) introduced the Fibre-Metal Roughneck P2A Hard Hat for extreme work environments. Through advanced design and materials, the Roughneck P2A delivers uncompromised protection in a lightweight design that ensures all-day comfort. Distinctive in its smooth, round design and matte finish, the P2A is the latest member of the Roughneck line of protective caps, which are recognized as the industry standard for high-quality, heavy-duty head protection. Ideally suited for workers on construction sites and heavy industry jobsites such as steel plants, foundries, forges, fabrication shops and chemical plants, the Roughneck P2A is stronger and more durable than common high-density polyethylene (HDPE) cap shells. Constructed of a proprietary injection-molded fiberglass compound, the P2A cap offers exceptional impact and crack resistance. Furthermore, it handles hard knocks in the toughest places without developing nicks and cracks commonly seen in other fiberglass caps for long-lasting, professional-looking wear. The Roughneck P2A delivers best-in-class heat resistance, meeting ANSI-Z89.1-2009 impact resistance tests at temperatures up to 370 degrees Fahrenheit. Its technically advanced SuperEight suspension, with eight load-bearing points, spreads weight over a wide area for the ultimate in balance, stability and impact protection. The cap's reduced weight and adjustable, custom-fit features deliver added comfort for all-day wear. Its exclusive smooth crown design eliminates the risk of trapping a falling object, which can adversely affect a cap's impact reduction capability. "Fibre-Metal continues to set the standard for quality and performance with the introduction of the Roughneck P2A," said Katie Twist-Rowlinson, Fibre-Metal head protection product manager for Honeywell Safety Products. "Featuring new material formulations that provide higher heat resistance without compromising durability or weight, this new protective cap underscores Fibre-Metal's ongoing commitment to innovation and worker safety." The Roughneck P2A is available with a choice of three high-performance headgear options: the Fibre-Metal non-slip/non-strip ratchet, SwingStrap or TabLok. It also comes ready to use with the industry's most versatile Quick-Lok or Speedy Loop helmet attachment system for faceshields and welding helmets. Each of the cap's nine shades of solid-color resin provides a permanent, no-chip, no-peel finish. write your comments about the article :: © 2011 Construction News :: home page |
