Best Carbon Fiber Hard Hat


Why Carbon Fiber?

Carbon fiber is one of the most popular materials available for several reasons. This material can withstand a lot of force compared to other materials, like plastics, metals which means that it has added capacity to help prevent injuries. 

Another reason why carbon fiber is popular is because it’s lightweight. it also means that these hard hats last a long time, resistant to scratches and dents, which keeps them looking good. Because of the lighter weight, carbon fiber hard hats tend to be more comfortable compared to other materials.


Safety Note

Hard hats  are a necessity on job sites to help keep workers safe. In fact, they’ve been prominent since World War I, although back then, they were made of leather. The earliest hard hats became available in the 19th century as part of the gear that miners used to prevent injuries.

Today, they’re important because they do reduce the occurrence of injuries. Anything can happen on the job site falling tools, building materials and debris can strike workers, and the hard hat is an essential line of defense to prevent cuts, bruises or skull fractures.


Types of Carbon Fiber Hard Hats Available

Hard hats are of two types:

Type 1: Protects the top of the head.

Type 2: Protects from side and off-center impacts as well as the top of the head.


Work Type Color Code

A color system exists that relates either to the job being undertaken or the type of person wearing the hard hat.

  1. Yellow: a catch-all color for tradespeople and laborers
  2. White: site forepersons, supervisors, managers, architects, surveyors, and engineers
  3. Red: firefighters and fire marshals
  4. Orange: crane/lifting gear operator, road crews, and traffic marshals
  5. Blue: electricians and carpenters
  6. Green: building or safety inspectors, occasionally trainees
  7. Brown: welders
  8. Gray: site visitors

ORIENTATION OF CARBON FIBER

-
Image
Carbon fiber comes in two Weaves: 1 . Unidirectional (all fibers are parallel):  In a 0-degree orientation, aligned with the fibers, unidirectional (UD) carbon fiber provides high bending strength against the progression of forces, which makes it perfect for the carbon-fiber prosthetic blades used by Paralympic sprinters. In a 90-degree orientation, perpendicular to the fibers, it flexes. In either orientation, it has low torsional strength. In all applications, another layer of fabric, such as Perlon, must be laid under and over UD carbon-fiber weave. 2. Bidirectional (fibers cross at a 90-degree angle):  In a 0-degree or a 90-degree orientation, bidirectional carbon fiber features medium bending strength and medium torsional strength. At a 45-degree orientation, it is more flexible and has high torsional strength, which are just the right properties for a transfemoral socket, for example. You can even tailor the composite's properties with fiber length, the type of weave...
