HA-110 SH2R High-Altitude Climbing Helmet with Chin Strap (EN 12492)

The PGTEC HA-110 SH2R is a high-altitude climbing and mountaineering safety helmet certified to EN 12492, designed for industrial rope-access technicians, tower climbers, wind-turbine technicians and rescue teams who need impact protection that stays on the head during inversion falls and climbing movements. The shell is injection-moulded from ABS in a matte navy-blue finish, with multi-position vent holes covered by removable frost plugs for cold-weather use. Inside, an expanded polystyrene (EPS) liner absorbs impact energy across the crown, sides and rear of the head. The harness is a 15 mm polyester webbing system with a rear ratchet dial for 53-62 cm sizing and a robust polyamide chin strap with a one-handed buckle that keeps the helmet locked on even in a free-hanging inverted position. The SH2R also carries side slots for the PGTEC earmuff adapter and a front bracket for headlamp mounting. Maximum shell-to-head clearance meets the EN 12492 lateral and rear-impact requirements. PGTEC ships the SH2R with a padded storage bag, a multilingual instruction manual and an individual batch number. It is commonly used by rescue services, industrial rope-access contractors, mountain guides and wind-farm inspection crews. The EPS liner is bonded directly to the ABS shell so the two components cannot separate on impact, and the ratchet dial clicks in 5 mm increments for a repeatable fit between wearers sharing the helmet on a short crew rotation. A reflective patch on the rear shell improves visibility on dusk climbs and on offshore helideck transfers. The SH2R meets the most demanding European climbing-helmet tests, including lateral impact, rear impact and a retention-system strength check that pulls on the chin strap at 1 kN for three seconds.
