The MSA V-Gard® H1 Visor Frame with Debris Control (part number 10235987) provides a secure and protective mounting solution for attaching face shields to MSA V-Gard H1 helmets. This model includes an integrated debris control feature—a flexible gasket that seals the gap between the visor and helmet—designed to block dust, particles, and debris from entering during overhead or high-particulate tasks. The frame attaches directly to the helmet’s side accessory rails using a push-button mechanism, eliminating the need for separate adapters or visor carriers. Ideal for high-exposure environments, this visor frame enhances the safety and performance of any face protection system.
