Type 1 Hard Hats for Overhead Hazards
Type 1 hard hats are the standard choice where falling objects and overhead obstructions are the main concerns. They absorb force directed at the crown of the head but are not rated for lateral impact.
Key Features
- Top-impact and penetration resistance
- ANSI/ISEA Z89.1 Type 1 certification
- Available in Class G, E, and C electrical ratings
- Adjustable suspension systems for fit
Typical Work Environments
- General construction and framing
- Warehousing and distribution
- Manufacturing and assembly plants
- Maintenance and facility work
Type 1 is appropriate when the hazard comes from above; jobs with side impact risk require a Type 2 hard hat.
