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.
What products are affected?
- The B2138602 spare part.
- R5 rescue helmets, BR5 wildland firefighting helmets, BR9 wildland firefighting helmets, R6 multi-purpose helmets, F3D MkII (with a GEN1 liner), F10 MkIII (with a GEN1 liner) and F10 MkV (with a GEN1 liner) structural firefighting helmets.
