Meets latest specs N.F.P.A. 1971, Standard on Protective Ensembles for Structural Fire Fighting and Proximity Fire Fighting, 2007 Edition. Heavy-duty head and neck coverage in a flame-resistant, carbon-fiber hood available that weighs in at only 80% of what other N.F.P.A.-compliant hoods do.

Carbon Shield has an L.O.I. over 50% higher than Nomex^® and 33% higher than P.B.I./Rayon blends
Carbon Shield is a flame-resistant fabric based on carbon fire CarbonX^® technology
Non-flammable & melt-proof: will glow, but not burn in extreme heat or flame
Deposits no tar
Retains a certain tenacity at temperatures exceeding 2300°F for 90 seconds
Low heat conductivity
Over 20% lighter than most N.F.P.A.-compliant hoods, yet has an excellent T.P.P. rating of 28
Remain supple and soft after exposure to fire, as well as repeated washing and drying
Allows 200% stretch and recovery
Will not fade or weaken when exposed to UV rays
Excellent moisture regain
Can neutralize unpleasant odors due to the carbon fibers
Wicks moisture away from the skin to the outer shell, enabling rapid evaporation for increased comfort and protection
Size: One size fits all.
Note: Does not cover past the lower neck area. For lower neck area coverage, check out the Ultimate Carbon Shield's N.F.P.A. Fire Hood (#3049298)
About L.O.I.: Flame resistance is commonly measured by the highest L.O.I., the amount of oxygen needed to support combustion. The higher the L.O.I. value, the more flame-resistant the material.
Customer Testimonials:
I would like to take a moment and tell you about my new carbon hood. My fire department received a call one day for a bee emergency. We arrived on the scene and had to put on the bee suit over my turnout gear. Now my department is in Lake Havasu City, AZ and the temperature was about 95°F that day. I had on the carbon hood, and as I watched the other firemen started to sweat and shed off their layers of clothes. I stayed very comfortable and my head stayed very cool. I ended up wearing my hood all the way back to the station. Please use this information to pass on to other potential buyers that this new carbon hood does the job of keeping your head very cool. – Lt. Kevin Pfeiffer, Desert Hills Fire Dept., AZ
I am a firefighter with Harrisburg City and an instructor at Harrisburg Community College. I used this hood at both locations since receiving it and it has held up very well. It experienced 2 small kitchen fires and some odds-and-ends-type jobs. Then I took it to HACC for some training fires. All in all I believe it is a good product. The thermal protection could be improved a little, maybe they could line the inside making it a double-protection-type hood. However the double-layer hood I was using was destroyed in only a few fires at HACC. The carbon hood looked as good as it did when I received it, so I like this hood. I would recommend it to my colleagues. Again I would like to thank you for the hood. – Michael Souder, Harrisburg City, PA
