PIP 280-HP1491RVM-11 Traverse Vented, Industrial Type II Climbing Helmet Black

The PIP Traverse helmet is an ANSI Z89.1-2014 Type II, Class C industrial climbing helmet designed to safeguard workers at height or in confined spaces. It features a lightweight shell crafted from Polycarbonate/ABS, paired with an integrated EPS foam liner to help manage impact energy from frontal, lateral, and rear hazards. The helmet incorporates a 4-point HDPE inner suspension system for a secure, customizable fit, complemented by a rugged SURE-LOCK wheel ratchet that facilitates easy adjustment across a range of head sizes. An integral MIPS® layer provides a low-friction interface that can help reduce rotational forces by allowing the head to move slightly within the helmet during angled impacts, potentially mitigating injury risk from certain impact directions.

The Traverse is designed for compatibility with Traverse accessories, enabling users to tailor its use to various climbing, rescue, or industrial tasks. The internal padding sits above the brow line for comfort during extended wear, and the chin strap employs a cross-over design with a quick-release buckle to maintain a secure fit in demanding environments. This helmet’s construction and ANSI EN compliance details indicate its intended use for head protection in settings with overhead and lateral impact hazards, while the EN12492 clause 4.2 compatibility suggests applicability to mountaineering or similar contexts where head protection meets specific standards.

When selecting and using this helmet, verify proper sizing and suspension adjustment to ensure full coverage and stability during movement. The compatibility with a full line of Traverse accessories enhances versatility for tasks such as climbing, rescue, or industrial maintenance. Always inspect the shell, liner, suspension, and retention system before use, and replace worn or damaged components to maintain protective performance.
