Milwaukee Delivers the Best Oblique Impact Protection with IMPACT ARMOR Liner

Milwaukee Tool delivers advanced slip, trip and fall protection on the job site with its new BOLT Safety Helmets with IMPACT ARMOR Liner. Designed with RHEON technology, the IMPACT ARMOR Liner delivers the best oblique impact protection (based on impacts at a 45-degree angle at a speed of 6.5 meters per second, averaged across 16 testing locations around the full helmet circumference) and the safety helmet is a part of the BOLT system, allowing users to secure accessories simultaneously for efficiency on the job site.

“According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the construction industry has the greatest number of both fatal and non-fatal traumatic brain injuries,” said Kyle Anderson, senior product manager at Milwaukee Tool. “RHEON technology utilizes energy-absorbing polymers to reduce impact. The material is initially soft and hardens upon impact to provide ultimate protection. With this technology, IMPACT ARMOR delivers the best impact protection against oblique impacts, which can lead to TBIs.”

In addition to protection against top and side impacts, the BOLT Safety Helmets with IMPACT ARMOR Liner allow users to use multiple accessories at once. The construction safety helmets include a Milwaukee BOLT Headlamp Mount that works with most headlamps for easy, secure attachment and a BOLT Marker Clip that allows for easy access to pens and markers.

The BOLT Safety Helmets with IMPACT ARMOR Liner have a comfortable, padded suspension that includes an adjustable, swinging ratchet for better comfort. The climbing-style helmet also has a comfortable, adjustable chin strap for better security. The safety helmets are American National Standards Institute Type 2 and customizable, with the ability to add a company logo in up to four locations on the helmet.

The BOLT IMPACT ARMOR Liner is also available separately, allowing users to retrofit the liner into any Milwaukee safety helmet, increasing protection and performance.

Milwaukee Tool’s new BOLT Safety Helmets with IMPACT ARMOR Liner demonstrate its focus on creating innovative solutions that won’t slow users down, helping them stay safe and productive.
