Approvals & Standards
Vanguard™ Caps meet all applicable requirements for a Type I and II (top and lateral impact) helmet as outlined in CSA Z94.1-2005 (Class E) and ANSI/ISEA Z89.1-2009 (Class E).

WARNING: Do not mix suspension and helmet sizes. Make sure the sizes match (i.e., standard-size suspension with standard-size helmet). Use only MSA suspensions on an MSA helmet. Failure to comply with the above will reduce the energy-absorbing ability of the protective helmet, which can result in serious injury or death.

Comfortable and lightweight, the helmet weighs only 19 ounces and has an optional two- or three-point chinstrap with quick-release buckle.  Provides top, front, rear and side impact and penetration protection. Fas-Trac® ratchet suspension for quick, easy adjustability. Available in five colors, including white, yellow, red, blue and HiViz orange. Offers a full range of accessories including faceshields, hearing protection, lights and light holders that snap into the helmet slot, a goggle retainer and a lamp bracket and cord holder.
