Pyramex Aluminum Full Brim Hard Hat Face Shield Adapter

Fits perfect

Fits my Bullard full brim forestry helmet great. Very solid. A real face saver when using a brush saw. Hinge holds shield up well when not needed. Good price.

Summary: I have worked in industrial areas since 2008, so I have had quite some time wearing hard hats. I have also used a couple of chainsaw/forestry specific ones, so I'll include those for comparison as well. I also ordered the mesh face shield and carrier listed below to use with this Ergodyne. TR specializes in forestry related equipment. Observations: One thing you can choose between is class C (vented) and class E (non-vented); most of mine have been non-vented, but for this one I ordered a vented one to see if it makes a difference with cooling? Recommendations: One benefit/feature of the 3M offering is a UV exposure sticker, which this Ergodyne doesn't have; it essentially indicates how much UV exposure from the sun your hard hat has absorbed, and if it is time to change (plastic will become brittle and possibly ineffective with significant sun exposure. Pros: TR Industries is a PPE (personal protective equipment) specialty manufacturer; comfortable suspension system; the TR face shields are some what universal fit, and works well with the Pyramex adapter. Cons: None for now. Conclusion: At $10 for the Pyramax adapter, and $20 for the 2-pack of face shields, rating both 5-stars. Also rated the Ergodyne hard hat 5-stars. The three together make a great system!

There is probably no way to have a universal shield adapter but this one barely fit my hard hat. So i drilled some holes in the hard hat and added 3 zip ties to hold it in place. That worked. On a positive, the hinge and spring hold the shield in place well. There are 3 positions all up, all down and half way. Just what you would want. Also the clips to hold the plastic shield to the adapter seem to be well made and while I haven't owned it for long, look like they will hold up.

Works as described

Product fits perfectly on my hard hat easily installed

This face shield adapter it's so easy to use. It feels sturdy and it actually fits on my Milwaukee full brim hardhat without problem. It is so slim so it's not a problem when storaged in your toolbox.

It’s not terrible but it needs one of the little visor holders on the very front. I can’t tell you how many times my visor has come off and I’ve had to put it back on the frame. I won’t buy this one again

Like the ease for attaching a face shield and ease of attaching to hard hat
