MSA Skullgard Full Brim Hard Hat with Fas-Trac Suspension

The MSA 475407 Skullgard Protective Hard Hat is made with layers of resin-impregnated textiles that are laminated under pressure offering heavy duty protection, ideal for steel mills and other heavy industry applications with elevated temperatures. The MSA 475407 is a standard size, fitting heads 6 1/2 to 8 inches in diameter, and is a natural tan color.

Designed to offer outstanding protection in hot and dangerous industries, the Skullgard Protective Hat sets the standard for environments such as steel mills. This hat can withstand radiant heat loads up to 350°F while still maintaining its protection capabilities.

This MSA Skullgard Protective Hard Hat features Fas-Trac ratcheting suspension, a knob-adjustable system that can be adjusted and fitted to your head, while the hat is being worn.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the MSA Skullgard 475407 full brim hard hat good for steel mills, foundries, and other high-heat work?

Yes. The MSA 475407 Skullgard Full Brim is purpose-built for hot, demanding industries like steel, foundry, smelting, and glass work. It withstands radiant heat loads up to 350°F (176°C) thanks to its resin-impregnated (phenolic) textile construction, 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 and includes the Fas-Trac III ratcheting suspension. It ships with free shipping from Industrial Safety Products.

How much heat can the MSA Skullgard 475407 hard hat withstand?

The MSA 475407 Skullgard withstands radiant heat loads up to, but not exceeding, 350°F (176°C). This high heat tolerance comes from its phenolic construction — layers of resin-impregnated textile — which is why the Skullgard line is a long-standing choice for steel mills, foundries, and other high-temperature environments where standard polyethylene hard hats can soften or deform.

What safety standard does the MSA Skullgard 475407 hard hat meet?

The MSA 475407 Skullgard meets or exceeds ANSI/ISEA Z89.1, Type I, Class G. Type I certifies protection against top (crown) impact, and Class G (General) provides limited electrical protection, proof-tested to 2,200 volts under the standard. It is a full brim hard hat with the Fas-Trac III ratcheting suspension and fits hat sizes 6 to 8.

Is the MSA Skullgard 475407 hard hat rated for electrical work?

Only for limited voltage. The MSA 475407 Skullgard is Class G (General), which under ANSI/ISEA Z89.1 is proof-tested to just 2,200 volts — 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.

What is the MSA Skullgard 475407 hard hat made of?

The MSA 475407 Skullgard is made from layers of resin-impregnated textile — a phenolic material — rather than the molded polyethylene used in most hard hats. This dense phenolic construction is what lets it withstand radiant heat up to 350°F (176°C) and hold up in hot, heavy-industry environments where standard polyethylene hard hats can soften or deform.

What is the Fas-Trac III suspension on the MSA Skullgard 475407 hard hat?

Fas-Trac III is MSA's ratcheting suspension system built into the 475407 Skullgard. It uses a knob at the back that you turn to tighten or loosen the fit quickly, even one-handed, for a secure and comfortable hold. It replaces older pin-lock suspensions and lets one helmet adjust across hat sizes 6 to 8.

Does the MSA Skullgard 475407 hard hat fit most head sizes, and how do you adjust it?

Yes. The MSA 475407 Skullgard is a standard size that fits hat sizes 6 to 8, adjusted with the Fas-Trac III ratcheting suspension — a rear knob you turn to dial in the fit, even while wearing gloves. This range covers most adult head sizes in a single helmet.

Can the MSA Skullgard 475407 hard hat be used for welding?

Yes. The MSA 475407 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 (176°C) radiant-heat resistance and full brim, it's well suited to welding and other high-heat operations where sparks and radiant heat are a concern.

Does the MSA Skullgard 475407 hard hat ship free, and can it be customized with a company logo?

Yes. The MSA 475407 Skullgard ships with free shipping from Industrial Safety Products, and optional custom logo imprinting is available. 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.

What makes the MSA Skullgard 475407 different from a standard hard hat?

The MSA 475407 Skullgard is built for extreme heat, unlike a standard polyethylene hard hat. It's made of phenolic (resin-impregnated textile) that withstands radiant heat up to 350°F (176°C), where ordinary hard hats can soften. 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. It ships free from Industrial Safety Products.
