Hard hats play a protective role in a certain degree

The helmet's logistics will be weakened by sunlight, high temperature, or after undergoing its own aging process. Therefore, even after a certain period of use, the helmet should be replaced even if there is no obvious defect or no impact on the helmet.

Qualified helmets are all treated with a paint finish. Their wear resistance and aging resistance are superior to similar products. Under normal use conditions, we recommend that helmets should be replaced every two years to ensure their protection.

In fact, most of the helmets are located on the top of the helmet. There will be a permanent mark on their production date. The user can refer to this mark to decide when the helmet needs to be replaced. Of course, if the helmet is obviously missing or hit, it must be replaced immediately.

Wearing a helmet is not absolutely safe. First of all, the design of the helmet is mainly to avoid or reduce the damage caused by the head falling from a high-altitude falling object. For other forms of harm, such as spatters on the front or side of the head, it will not provide effective protection.

In addition, the helmet does not offset all the energy from falling objects. For example, the object is extremely heavy or falls from an extremely high place. Even if a helmet is worn, there is still a great deal of excess energy left by the wearer, resulting in serious injury or even death.

Therefore, the person in charge of the workplace must do a good job in preventing falling objects on the construction site. They should not rely solely on the protection of the helmet, nor can they wear helmets instead of falling objects.
