Milwaukee Tool 48-73-1309 Climbing Hard Hat Class E

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE TOOL 48-73-1309 is a climbing-style hard hat built for job sites where impact protection and electrical hazard resistance are required. Constructed from high-density polyethylene (HDPE), this ANSI Type II, Class E rated helmet meets the demands of overhead and lateral impact scenarios. The 4-point suspension system distributes force across the shell to reduce energy transfer to the wearer. The fit is universal and adjustable, allowing a secure fit across a wide range of head sizes. No venting or accessory slots are present, keeping the shell profile clean for climbing and confined-space applications. Licensed electricians, tower climbers, and general trades rely on this lid where dielectric protection is mandatory.

This hard hat is suited for residential and commercial construction, electrical work, and industrial environments where ANSI/ISEA Z89.1 compliance is required. The Class E rating provides dielectric protection against high-voltage electrical conductors. The ANSI Type II designation means it provides both top and lateral impact protection, making it appropriate for climbing applications where side-impact exposure is a real concern. The universal sizing and adjustable suspension make it practical for shared use or individual fitting on the job.

Key Features

• ANSI Type II shell provides top and lateral impact protection
• Class E rating for electrical hazard resistance at high-voltage exposures
• HDPE shell construction for impact resistance and durability
• 4-point adjustable suspension for stable, distributed fit
• Non-vented, non-slotted shell for climbing and confined-space use
• Universal sizing accommodates a wide range of head sizes

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or primary climbing hard hat for trade professionals requiring ANSI Type II, Class E dielectric protection in construction and industrial environments.

Installation Notes

Hard hat fitting and inspection should be performed before each use by a qualified worker or safety officer. Inspect the shell and suspension for cracks, dents, or degradation prior to use and replace any damaged components immediately. Do not modify the shell, apply paint or solvents, or exceed the manufacturer's service life guidelines, as these actions can compromise structural integrity. Follow applicable OSHA and ANSI/ISEA Z89.1 standards for head protection selection and use on the job site.
