New Video: Changing the comfort padding on a Pacific F20H

Changing the Comfort Padding on a F20H Firefighting Helmet - New Video

The Pacific F20H Haloflex™ directly addresses the risks associated with heat stress, helmet weight and contaminant exposure.

At the heart of Pacific F20H is the Haloflex™ system, the future of structural fire helmets – a complete departure from traditional ribbon suspension.

Haloflex™ can be disassembled in around 2 minutes without tools – meaning components can be removed or replaced in the field, without taking the helmet out of service.

In our recent video, our team demonstrates the process of removing and replacing the comfort padding and neck protector on Pacific F20H. Watch the video by clicking the play button below or by navigating to the clip on our YouTube channel using this link: https://youtu.be/YbKDuHAtn1o

Get more information on the revolutionary F20H here or explore the entire range of spare parts and accessories.

Change to front merino comfort padding by Pacific Helmets – January 2024

Change to front merino comfort padding by Pacific Helmets - January 2024

To improve compatibility with the new ‘Rescue’ Eye Protector (available as an option for the Pacific R6 Helmets in 2024), Pacific Helmets is changing the design of the merino front comfort pad that is a component of the following models of helmets:

What does this mean for Pac Fire & our customers?
Two additional slots (highlighted in the photo) have been added to the fabric of the B2138602 front merino comfort pad to create a better interface for the eye protector tabs. This does not effect the operation or installation of the B2138602 spare part or the helmet – but there is a visual difference.

Christmas Greetings from the team at Pac Fire.

Merry Christmas from the team at Pac Fire.

It’s almost a wrap for 2023 and the staff at Pac Fire would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and advise you of our holiday shutdown.

Pac Fire will be closed between Friday 22 December 2023 – Monday 8 January 2024. For urgent matters during our shutdown email urgent@pacfire.com.au or call 0405 330 266.

Merry Christmas from the team at Pac Fire.

You can still shop online during the shutdown period, but please note orders will not be processed until our return on 8th January.

Let’s take a minute to bask in some of the excitement from 2023:

  • Brighter and more battery life – Eflare ‘Next Generation’ began coming into stock in January, starting with our most popular product – the 730 Red/Blue Beacons.
  • Pac Fire was named as the new supplier of multi-purpose helmets for SAMFS. The R6 ‘Challenger’ came out on top in South Australia sporting Pacific’s new and revolutionary ‘Rescue Eye Protector’.
  • We got up close and personal with the Adalit L90 Right Angle Torch by unboxing one and running through the functions on camera.
  • Secondary eye protection was on our mind in March with the introduction of ‘Scorch’ goggles – an economical eye protection option that fits to Pacific branded helmets.
  • As part of our continual commitment to responder health, Pac Fire became a distributor for ‘THORZT’ Hydration products in May 2023.
  • The Australasian Road Rescue Challenge was held in July 2023. Pac Fire was proud to continue their role as ARRO Personal Protective Equipment Sponsor this year – and look excitedly toward 2024 to showcase a new technical fabric which represents years of research and testing.
  • Other big news in July: Pac Fire excitedly became a distributor for the AFK Folding Knife is a stylish, heavy duty pocket knife, designed specifically for firefighters and members of the Australasian emergency services.
  • 2023 continued to be a big year for the Pacific Helmets favourite, R6 ‘Challenger’ with confirmation it would remain Fire & Rescue NSW multi-purpose helmet.
  • Years of development and trials have resulted in the creation of the Pacific F20 – the new standard in structural firefighting helmets.
  • Our team loved meeting you in Brisbane for AFAC23. We had a great time chatting about our new products and making sure you walked away from our stand with some sweet giveaways.
  • Each model of Seiz gloves is precision designed to deliver maximum dexterity and exceptional protection for it’s intended application. September 2023 saw the introduction of Specter gloves – the next generation hand protection for rescue workers.
  • Industry leading industrial designers at Pacific Helmets have crafted a game changing head protection platform for the electrical industry. In October 2023 the Pacific E1 Arc Flash Electrical Helmet was introduced to Pac Fire’s range.
  • MSA Bristol strives towards ‘Total Protection’ with the upgrade of their Nomex® Nano Flex hood range. In November we were excited to receive our first shipment of ‘Total Protection’ Hoods from MSA Bristol which include a particulate barrier the entire way through the garment, protecting the neck and head from 99.8% of potentially harmful particulates.

Once again, we wish you all a Merry Christmas and look forward to working with you again in the new year.
