Linesman Hard Hats

Linesman Hard Hats

Linesman hard hats feature chin straps and are almost always electrically insulated. This is because the linesman role is almost exclusively carried out around high-power infrastructure on the rail network and power grid. These helmets are available in a range of colours to denote specific roles and statuses on site, from visitors all the way through to supervisors. All our helmets in this range are BS EN compliant and permitted for use on UK construction sites as part of a proper PPE deployment.
