A Complete, High-Visibility Communication System The R&B Fabrications Hi-Viz Radio Harness (Model 387-HIVIZ) is a comprehensive carry solution designed for responders working in high-traffic or low-light environments. Unlike leather straps that require purchasing separate components, this all-in-one kit includes a universal radio holder, an adjustable shoulder strap, and an anti-sway strap—all constructed from Hi-Viz Lime/Yellow webbing for maximum safety.

Key Features

  • Complete 3-Piece System: Comes ready to deploy with a universal radio case, a 46.5” shoulder strap, and a 9.5” anti-sway strap, eliminating the need to buy parts individually.
  • Universal Radio Fit: The web-based case features fully adjustable Velcro® straps to accommodate any model of portable radio, from small digital units to large Bendix Kings.
  • High-Visibility Safety: Constructed from bright Lime/Yellow webbing, ensuring the operator is easily seen by drivers or heavy equipment operators on the fireground or roadway.
  • Secure Stabilization: The included anti-sway strap anchors the case to your belt or turnout gear, preventing the radio from swinging during active movement.

Why It Matters Visibility is survival. For traffic incident management, landing zone operations, or wildland firefighting, being seen is as important as being heard. This harness integrates your communications gear into your PPE visibility profile. The synthetic webbing is also lighter than leather and can be easily washed to remove carcinogens or road grime.

How to Use

  1. Size the Case: Adjust the Velcro® straps on the holder to fit your specific radio snugly.
  2. Don the Strap: Place the shoulder strap over your head and opposite shoulder.
  3. Anchor: Clip the anti-sway strap to your belt loop or turnout D-ring.
  4. Operate: Your radio is now secure at your hip, with the mic easily routable to your lapel.

Technical Overview Weighing just 12 oz for the entire system, this kit is a lightweight alternative to heavy leather straps. The synthetic construction is rot-resistant and dries quickly after exposure to rain or foam.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does the R&B Hi-Viz Radio Harness include an anti-sway strap?▸

The 9 1/2" anti-sway strap is a critical feature that prevents your radio from bouncing or shifting during high-intensity operations like firefighting, vehicle extrication, or rapid response scenarios. Unlike standard radio holders that allow movement, this strap locks the radio securely against your chest, ensuring you can access communication instantly without fumbling or readjusting. This stability is especially important when climbing ladders, crawling through confined spaces, or performing CPR where every second counts.

Will the R&B 387-HIVIZ harness fit my Motorola APX or Harris XL-200P radio?▸

Yes. The R&B Hi-Viz Radio Harness features a universal fit design with fully adjustable straps that accommodate any radio model, including Motorola APX series, Harris XL-200P, Kenwood, and legacy Motorola XTS radios. The 6 1/2" radio pouch expands to fit both compact and full-size models, and the 46 1/2" harness length adjusts to fit chest sizes from small to 3XL over turnout gear or tactical vests.

How does the hi-viz design improve safety during nighttime or low-visibility operations?▸

The R&B Hi-Viz Radio Harness uses high-visibility reflective materials that make you instantly identifiable in smoke-filled structures, nighttime highway incidents, or wildland fire operations. This enhanced visibility helps incident commanders track personnel locations, reduces friendly-fire risks during tactical operations, and ensures passing vehicles can see first responders working roadside scenes—critical for NFPA 1971 and ANSI/ISEA 107 compliance in many jurisdictions.

At only 12 oz, will the R&B radio harness hold up to daily fire service use?▸

Absolutely. Despite its lightweight 12 oz construction, this USA-made harness is built by R&B Fabrications using mil-spec materials designed for the rigors of structural firefighting and EMS operations. The lightweight design reduces shoulder and neck strain during 24-hour shifts while maintaining the durability needed for repeated exposure to heat, moisture, and abrasion. Many departments report 3-5 years of daily use without hardware failure or strap degradation.

Can I wear the R&B Hi-Viz Radio Harness over my SCBA straps and turnout coat?▸

Yes. The 46 1/2" adjustable harness is specifically designed to fit over SCBA shoulder straps, turnout gear, and ballistic vests without interfering with your air pack or restricting movement. The universal fit accommodates layered PPE configurations, and the anti-sway strap keeps the radio positioned correctly even when wearing full structural firefighting gear or tactical load-bearing equipment.
