The ANSI-certified Type II, Class C Traverse™ with Mips® industrial climbing helmet delivers superior impact protection for workers at height or in confined spaces. Independently rated 5 stars by the Virginia Tech Helmet Lab, the Traverse™ with Mips® ranks among the highest-performing helmets tested for both linear and rotational impact protection. Built with a super lightweight ABS outer shell and an integrated EPS foam liner, the helmet absorbs impact energy while maintaining exceptional comfort and balance. Its highly adjustable 4-point HDPE suspension ensures a secure fit and stability during active movement. At the core of the design is Mips® (Multi-directional Impact Protection System), a low-friction layer that allows the head to move inside the helmet 10–15 mm in all directions during an angled impact. This innovative design helps redirect harmful rotational motion that could otherwise be transmitted to the brain, offering an added layer of protection in real-world scenarios.
