CLIMAX | 5-RS Safety Helmet | EN 397 | Red

The CLIMAX 5-RS is an industrial safety helmet designed for any setting where head protection needs to come with electrical insulation. Weighing just 318 grams, it sits on the lighter end of its class, making it a practical choice for anyone who has to wear it through long shifts.

Made from polyethylene, the helmet offers the toughness you would expect from a shell in this material while keeping weight down. Inside, the 6-point harness ensures a secure fit and helps distribute impact forces evenly, and the adjustable headband together with the two-position height adjustment make it easy to fit different head shapes. The fabric sweatband absorbs perspiration and adds comfort during hot working days, while the built-in rain gutter keeps water from running off the brim into the wearer's face. Slots on the sides also allow hearing or face protection to be attached directly to the helmet, so the setup can be extended as needed.

On the protection side, the helmet meets EN 397: 2012+A1:2000, guarding against impacts to the head such as those caused by falling objects. It is also electrically insulating up to 1000 V AC under EN 50365:2002, which makes it suitable for work on or near live electrical equipment. This insulation performance is rated for temperatures between -20°C and +50°C, so the helmet stays reliable in both cold and hot conditions.

This makes the CLIMAX 5-RS a fitting choice wherever head protection and electrical safety requirements overlap: on construction sites with electrical installations, in the energy sector, during maintenance work on switchgear, or in industrial settings where mechanical and electrical hazards can occur together.
