Additional Features:
Yes. The MSA 475408 Skullgard White Full Brim is purpose-built for hot, dangerous industries like steel mills, foundries, smelting, and welding. It withstands radiant heat loads up to, but not exceeding, 350°F thanks to its phenolic shell, and the full brim shields the face, ears, and neck from heat, sparks, and debris on all sides. It meets ANSI/ISEA Z89.1, Type I, Class G, uses the Fas-Trac III ratcheting suspension, and ships with free shipping from Industrial Safety Products.
The MSA 475408 Skullgard withstands radiant heat loads up to, but not exceeding, 350°F. This high heat tolerance comes from its phenolic shell — layers of resin-impregnated textile — which is why the Skullgard line is a long-standing choice for steel mills, foundries, and welding, where standard polyethylene hard hats can soften or deform.
The MSA 475408 Skullgard White Full Brim meets or exceeds ANSI/ISEA Z89.1, Type I, Class G. Type I certifies protection against top (crown) impact; Class G (General) provides limited electrical protection, proof-tested to 2,200 volts under the standard. It is a full brim hat with the Fas-Trac III ratcheting suspension, available in a standard size.
Only for limited voltage. The MSA 475408 Skullgard is Class G (General), proof-tested to just 2,200 volts under ANSI/ISEA Z89.1 — suitable for low-voltage incidental contact, not high-voltage electrical work. It is also Type I, so it protects against top impact only, not lateral impact. For high-voltage electrical hazards, choose a Class E (20,000-volt) helmet instead; the Skullgard's strength is heat resistance, not electrical protection.
The MSA 475408 Skullgard is made of phenolic — layers of resin-impregnated textile — rather than the molded polyethylene used in most hard hats. This dense phenolic shell is what lets it withstand radiant heat up to 350°F and hold up in hot, heavy-industry environments where standard polyethylene hard hats can soften or deform.
Fas-Trac III is MSA's ratcheting suspension system built into the 475408 Skullgard. It uses a knob at the back that you turn to tighten or loosen the fit quickly, even one-handed while wearing gloves, for a secure and comfortable hold. It replaces older pin-lock suspensions and dials in the fit across the standard hat-size range.
Yes. This listing is the white full brim, and the Skullgard line is available in a variety of colors and a standard size that fits hat sizes 6½ to 8. The fit is adjusted with the Fas-Trac III ratcheting suspension — a rear knob you turn to dial in a secure hold, even while wearing gloves.
Yes. The MSA 475408 Skullgard has a smooth crown designed for easy use of MSA welding equipment, such as cap-mounted welding shields and accessories. Combined with its 350°F radiant-heat resistance and phenolic shell, it's well suited to welding and other high-heat operations where sparks and radiant heat are a concern.
Yes. The MSA 475408 Skullgard White Full Brim is a custom-logo listing at Industrial Safety Products, with optional custom imprinting and reflective striping. Logo printing is priced per location: $6.60 per location for a single color, or $10.90 per location for up to 4 colors, on up to four locations (front, back, right, and left sides). It requires a minimum order of 20 hard hats, and a set-up fee may apply; orders under the 20-unit minimum ship as non-logo items. Free shipping is included.
The MSA 475408 Skullgard is built for extreme heat, unlike a standard polyethylene hard hat. Its phenolic shell withstands radiant heat up to 350°F, where ordinary hard hats can soften or deform, and it adds a full brim for all-around sun, spark, and debris protection, a smooth crown for MSA welding gear, and the Fas-Trac III ratcheting suspension. It meets ANSI/ISEA Z89.1, Type I, Class G. Built for heat resistance, it's a go-to for steel, foundry, and welding work, and it ships free from Industrial Safety Products.
Yes. The MSA 475408 is the custom-logo version of the Skullgard White Full Brim, made for outfitting a crew with matching branded hard hats. It supports custom logo imprinting (priced per location, single color or up to 4 colors, on up to four locations) plus reflective striping for visibility, with a 20-hat minimum order. You still get the full Skullgard package — phenolic shell rated to 350°F radiant heat, Type I / Class G protection, full brim, and Fas-Trac III suspension — so branding doesn't cost you protection.
