The 3M™ Versaflo™ Radiant Heat Cover, M-975N, is an aluminized aramid accessory designed to enhance protection for the head, neck, and shoulders in environments with radiant heat exposure. Engineered for compatibility with the M-407 headgear, this modular cover allows the user to maintain high-performance protection without sacrificing comfort or visibility. The system supports visor flip-up functionality even when the cover is installed, providing safety without limiting communication or task efficiency. Its radiant heat-resistant properties and compatibility with molten metal splash protection make it an ideal solution for heavy industrial environments like foundries and metal processing facilities.

Key Features

Radiant Heat Protection: Reflective aluminized aramid material protects against radiant heat, sparks, and molten metal splash.
Optimized for M-407 Headgear: Compatible only with the 3M™ Versaflo™ M-407 helmet for seamless integration.
Flip-Up Visor Functionality: Design enables over-visor and main visor to be lifted with the cover attached.
Modular System Compatibility: Can be combined with other radiant heat accessories such as the BT-927N breathing tube cover and M-967N over-visor.
Extended Coverage: Drapes over head, neck, and shoulders for full upper body radiant protection.

Intended Use

This radiant heat cover is designed for workers exposed to extreme temperatures and high radiant heat in industrial settings. It is ideal for professionals who wear the M-407 helmet and need upper-body heat protection during extended tasks.

Foundry workers near molten metal processes
Metal manufacturing and smelting technicians
Industrial furnace and kiln operators
Workers in hot environments with high radiant heat risk

Any application where compliance with EN ISO 11612 or ASTM F955 is required
