Bump Caps

If you are a mechanic, plumber, electrician, or warehouse worker, you will undoubtedly have stood up after working down low only to bash your head on something above you. This is where the bump cap can save a lot of pain. Designed to look like a baseball cap and be as unobtrusive as possible, these simple caps offer protection against painful bumps and scrapes. (If you are more concerned about items being dropped on you then you should consider a hard hat instead!) Shop our selection of bump caps, with next-day delivery on items in stock.

About Bump Caps

Our bump caps are excellent for use in areas where there is no risk of falling debris, but there is still a risk of bumps and scrapes. Bump caps are a key part of our head protection range; they are ideal for situations where a hard hat would be excessive, but some head protection is still required.

It's all too easy to stand up from a crouched working position and forget that there's something above you, causing you to hit your head on something hard or sharp. These situations are where a bump cap excels. It can turn what might have been a concussion or a deep cut into “just a bump” - hence the name.

Our bump caps are, for the most part, styled after baseball caps, and they can also be branded as needed. This styling makes them visually suitable for all manner of industries from plumbing to food production to working on vehicles. Warehouse, factory and maintenance workers can also benefit from bump caps.

PLEASE NOTE: A bump cap is not a substitute for an industrial safety helmet and therefore they are generally not worn on construction sites.

Key bump cap features

When buying your bump cap, consider these features to help you to find the cap that best suits your needs.

Side protection

Not all bump caps are tested to offer protection from side impacts. If you require side impact protection, you should consider something like the Hardcap A1+ from JSP.

Ventilation

Ventilation Holes On A Bump Cap

Do you work in a hot environment or carry out strenuous work? If so, you will want to ensure that your bump cap has adequate ventilation to keep your head cool.

Peak length

Micro Peak And Long Peak Bump Cap Comparison

The length of peak required can be dictated by the aesthetic appearance you are going for and the role. If you are constantly looking upward in your position, you may want a shorter peak rather than a long peak to keep your line of sight clear.

Weight

JSP Bump Caps Can Weigh Less Than 135 Grams

No one wants to wear a heavy bump cap. Our lightest bump cap comes in at only 135g allowing you to wear it all day long without discomfort.

Reflectivity

If you work in a low-light level environment, you will want to ensure that any bump cap you choose is either high-visibility or has reflective piping. This reflectivity will ensure you can be seen quickly by other workers.

Branding
