Quick Overview

This strap enables firefighters to secure their helmet after donning an SCBA facepiece, ensuring the mask's seal is not broken during gearing-up. Its quick-release design allows for rapid helmet removal with a gloved hand without disturbing the air supply.

Field Application Steps

Don and obtain a complete seal with your SCBA facepiece and hood.
Position the helmet on your head.
Connect the two-piece quick-release buckle under your chin, clearing the SCBA regulator.
Use the Postman slide adjuster to tighten the strap for a secure fit.
To doff, depress the buckle's side tabs to instantly release the helmet while the SCBA mask remains in place.
