MSA Head & Face Protection
MSA head and face protection helps protect workers from falling objects, top and lateral impacts, flying debris, chemical splash, ultraviolet radiation, sparks, heat, arc-flash hazards, and other workplace risks. MSA is especially known for its V-Gard hard hats, Type II safety helmets, and integrated face-protection systems used in construction, manufacturing, utilities, mining, oil and gas, forestry, confined spaces, and industrial maintenance.
RSP Supply offers MSA V-Gard hard hats, V-Gard H1 and H2 safety helmets, full-brim helmets, face shields, polycarbonate and mesh visors, arc-flash visors, frames, headgear, chin protectors, suspensions, sweatbands, chin straps, reflective accessories, and replacement components. MSA’s V-Gard systems are designed to support compatible combinations of head, face, and hearing protection for specific workplace hazards.
Choosing the correct MSA head and face protection begins with identifying the required impact type, electrical class, brim style, ventilation, face coverage, visor material, accessory configuration, and applicable safety standard. Buyers should also confirm compatibility between the helmet, frame, visor, earmuffs, chin protection, and other mounted accessories.
