The Importance of Arborist Helmets in Tree Work
Safety is paramount in tree work, but accidents can still happen, whether due to a slip on the part of the climber or the tree itself. That's why personal protective equipment (PPE) is an absolute necessity when engaging in tree climbing activities. Among the often overlooked but critical pieces of gear for arborists are tree climbing helmets. If you're in the market for new protective equipment, a quality helmet should be at the top of your list.
How to Choose the Right Arborist Helmet
Selecting the ideal tree climbing helmet involves considering several crucial factors. While comfort is essential, safety should always be the top priority. A lightweight helmet can also significantly reduce fatigue during extended climbs. Fortunately, you can find a robust climbing helmet that combines these essential elements.
Key Helmet Features to Look For
When searching for an arborist helmet, it's important to ensure it offers features that enhance your safety and comfort. Tree work requires protection not only for your head but also for your ears, eyes, and face. Some features to consider include:
Most helmets on the market provide one or more of these features, allowing you to maximize protection for all aspects of your head.
Modern Classics for Weight Efficiency
Many helmets, designed to reduce weight, are available in the classic hard hat style. These helmets often offer visor adapters and a secure fit to ensure your protection. While classic helmets are suitable for many tasks, some jobs may require full face protection.
