Safety helmet KASK Zenith X MAX

High-quality closed helmet with a very spacious fit and an extra-long multi-point harness. This model offers excellent fit, protection, durability, and easy accessory compatibility. Adjustments can be made easily with one hand. The padding features a quick-click Click-In structure, making hygiene management and helmet maintenance cost-effective.

This MAX version is designed for users with larger-than-average head sizes, as well as those who wish to wear thicker winter hats or helmet hoods. Suitable for head circumferences of 60-66 cm, with additional adjustments for height and neck angle (for comparison, the standard Zenith X is 52-63 cm).

Designed for industrial use, construction, electrical work, rescue operations, etc.

Multiple types of eye and face protectors can be quickly attached to the helmet with EasyClick quick-release fittings. A designated slot for attaching a name tag or headlamp without a strap. Integrated easy-to-use brackets on the sides for installing headlamps with a forehead strap. The rear brackets include an additional groove for carrying corded earplugs, ensuring they are easily accessible and ready for use. There are slots on the sides for cup ear protection. Inside the rear, anchoring points for various neck guards, and an external pre-fitted label for the user's name and phone number.

The outer shell is made of HD Polypropylene, which is lightweight and excels in impact absorption properties, particularly at colder temperatures. The shell is more durable than conventional materials and easier to clean. Inside, an EPS honeycomb structure protects the head with D-Core dual-material technology: a high-density upper section protects against threats coming from above. A low-density material against the bottom of the head provides comprehensive protection against threats from other directions. The level of protection offered cannot be achieved with helmets relying on strap structures. Minimizing contact areas with the head and the air channels between the honeycomb and the shell enhance user comfort.

The harness keeps the helmet securely in place even in challenging work positions. With extensive adjustment options, it offers good compatibility with hearing protectors. The chin strap features an eco-leather hypoallergenic and washable covering that provides exceptional comfort and prevents skin irritation. The adjustable strap conforms to head shapes, allowing the headband to shape perfectly around the neck area. The chin strap has a Ring To Hook loop, allowing the helmet to be attached to work clothing or equipment bags when not being worn. The padding is made of DRY+ material, treated with antibacterial silver ions to keep the helmet fresher. It effectively wicks moisture for comfort throughout the workday and dries very quickly.

The risk of brain injuries increases if the "brick" value exceeds the threshold of 0.68. A lower number corresponds to a lower risk of injury. All KASK helmets have a BrIC value of under 0.39.
