Ideal Applications
Consider PW79 for assessed service, inspection or maintenance tasks involving contact with fixed objects where bump-cap protection is suitable. A long peak and bright colour do not establish suitability for falling-object hazards or replace any separately required visibility clothing.
Use and Care
Adjust the strap and check stability before starting work. Inspect the outer fabric, inner shell and padding for damage or deterioration. Follow the manufacturer’s cleaning, storage and replacement instructions and do not remove or modify the protective components.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the peak?
The manufacturer lists a 7cm long peak.
Are all colour options high visibility?
The product offers navy alongside orange and yellow. Select the actual colour against your workplace requirements rather than treating every variant as identical.
Can it replace a hard hat?
No. An EN 812 bump cap is not a substitute for an industrial safety helmet where falling or thrown objects are a hazard.
How is the fit adjusted?
Use the rear hook-and-loop strap and check that the cap sits securely on the wearer.
