FM4002 - Fibre-Metal Quick-Lok Mounting Blades for Hard Hats

Fibre-Metal FM4002 Quick-Lok Mounting Blades

The Fibre-Metal FM4002 Quick-Lok Mounting Blades are a critical component in the integration of industrial head and face protection. Designed specifically for the Fibre-Metal Quick-Lok™ system, these mounting blades (often referred to as male plugs) are engineered to attach permanently to Fibre-Metal hard hats and caps. They serve as the connecting interface for welding helmets and faceshields equipped with the corresponding Quick-Lok mounting cups (FM4001). This system is widely recognized in the MRO and industrial safety sectors for its reliability and durability.

Constructed from high-impact materials, the FM4002 blades are built to withstand the rigorous conditions of heavy fabrication, construction, and welding environments. The kit typically includes the necessary hardware to secure the blades to the shell of the hard hat. Once installed, these blades provide a secure, positive-locking pivot point. This allows the user to attach or detach their welding helmet or faceshield instantly without having to remove the hard hat from their head, ensuring continuous head protection compliance on the job site.

For procurement and safety managers, the FM4002 represents a standardized solution for multi-hazard protection. By utilizing the Quick-Lok system, facilities can maintain a modular inventory where personal protective equipment (PPE) can be swapped or replaced efficiently. The FM4002 is compatible with a broad range of Fibre-Metal protective caps and is the standard adapter for mounting the Tigerhood™ and Pipeliner™ series helmets to head protection. This component ensures that the assembly meets necessary safety standards for stability and retention during operation.

Installation is straightforward, requiring the blades to be mounted to the specific anchor points on the hard hat. The design ensures that the weight of the welding hood is distributed evenly, minimizing neck strain while maximizing stability. The FM4002 is an essential SKU for any inventory supporting welders who operate in areas requiring ANSI-rated head protection.
