3M 7100176971 Hard Hat Visor Polycarbonate Amber

Product Description

The 3M 7100176971 is a polycarbonate hard hat visor designed for use with the 3M X5000 series helmet. The amber-tinted lens filters light and enhances contrast in outdoor and variable-lighting conditions. This visor features a slide in/out attachment mechanism and is constructed from scratch-resistant, anti-fog polycarbonate. It is sized at 5.71 inches tall and 9.25 inches wide, making it a full-coverage face shield suited for job sites where both head and face protection are required. Installation and removal are handled without tools, making it practical for daily use by construction trades, utilities workers, and industrial maintenance personnel.

This visor is intended for use with the 3M X5000 series hard hat and helmet platform. Note that a P3EV/2-10P adapter or 3M X-Series helmet-attached earmuffs must be ordered separately to attach this visor. It is appropriate for outdoor work environments where glare reduction is a priority, including construction, electrical utility work, and general industrial applications. It is sold individually and ships as a single unit.
