FM3C - Fibre-Metal 3-C Ratchet Headgear Replacement Suspension

Premium Replacement Suspension for Fibre-Metal Helmets

The Fibre-Metal 3-C Ratchet Headgear is the industry-standard replacement suspension system designed specifically for Fibre-Metal welding helmets. Known for its rugged durability and ergonomic design, this headgear ensures that your welding hood remains comfortable and secure throughout the longest workdays. Whether you are using the classic Pipeliner or the versatile Tigerhood series, the 3-C headgear restores the original fit and feel of your safety equipment, ensuring optimal performance and protection.

Advanced Comfort and Fit

Comfort is critical when wearing a welding helmet for hours at a time. The 3-C model features a deeply offset, pliable headband that naturally fits the contours of the human head. This design choice eliminates the rigid pressure points often found in lesser quality suspensions. Additionally, the overhead band includes multiple adjustment settings, allowing the welder to position the glassholder exactly where needed for the best view of the weld puddle and the most comfortable neck angle.

Superior Stability and Balance

One of the standout features of the Fibre-Metal 3-C is its exclusive free-floating arms. These arms work to balance and stabilize the helmet, preventing it from slipping or feeling top-heavy. By distributing the weight of the hood more evenly across the head, the suspension minimizes fatigue and allows for greater precision during welding operations. In models where free-floating arms are impractical, the system utilizes unique mounting brackets to achieve a similar level of stability.

Durability in Extreme Conditions

Industrial environments can be harsh, exposing equipment to extreme heat and bitter cold. The Fibre-Metal 3-C headgear is constructed from high-quality materials that are unaffected by age and temperature fluctuations. It is designed to perform reliably without cracking or breaking, ensuring that your safety gear is ready whenever you are. The strip-proof ratchet adjustment mechanism provides small increment sizing, allowing for a snug, custom fit that holds tight even under rigorous use.
