Individual labor protection is the last measure against hazards after all collective protection measures, and is the last resort to protect the personal safety of individual workers.

Therefore, choosing, purchasing, using as well as maintaining personal protective equipment are very important knowledge.

Today we share some knowledge about safety helmet:

First, how long is the specified service life of safety helmet?

The service life of helmets made of different materials varies. Generally speaking, counting from the completion of the manufacturing of safety helmet, the service life of the plant branch woven cap is not more than two years, the plastic cap, paper rubber cap will not be more than two and a half years, and fiberglass reinforced plastic (Velcro steel) rubber cap is not more than three and a half years. If in the course of use, the appearance of the helmet is found to be cracked, concave and worn and other abnormalities, the helmet may not be continued to be used and should be replaced in time. In addition, in the process of use, if the helmet suffered any impact with cracks, should be replaced and scrapped.

Second, the use of helmet need to pay attention to what matters?

1、Before use, the helmet should be checked in the effective preventive test cycle, the appearance is intact.

2、Any personnel entering the production and construction site must wear the helmet correctly.

3、When wearing the helmet, the cap band must be adjusted according to the size of the head circumference and the chin strap should be tightened.

4、Before use, the cap shell should be inspected without cracks or damages, without obvious deformation, and the key components of the cap liner (cap band, back band, support band, cap liner connector, chin strap, etc.) are complete, intact and firm, and the permanent mark is clearly recognizable and has not exceeded the validity period of use.

5、Normal use period: calculated from the date of completion of product manufacturing, the normal effective service life of plastic safety helmet is 30 months.

What are the requirements for helmet maintenance and storage?

1. The helmet consists of two basic components, i.e. the shell and the suspension, which work as a system and require regular inspection and maintenance. The main purpose of the suspension is to absorb energy. The life of the helmet can be ensured by cleaning the suspension and shell as part of a regular inspection program.

Use a damp sponge or soft brush moistened with mold cleaner and water to remove stains and smudges from the suspension and shell.

2. Helmets are kept by the user or centrally stored.

The production team should place them in the tool cabinet or hang them according to the number or name. They should not be stored in acid, alkali, high temperature, sunlight, humidity, etc., not to mention storing hard objects.

3. Regular inspection, once a year.
