Kask Superplasma PL Hi Viz Helmet
The lightweight Kask Superplasma PL Hi Viz is a vented climbing helmet designed for industrial use and conforming to EN12492. It has fluorescent headlamp clips (not on the black version) and reflective stickers. The Super Plasma PL’s lightness is made possible by the high-density polystyrene insert, which absorbs impact forces. The strong chinstrap, which releases above 500N (50kg), ensures that the helmet stays on your head in the event of an impact. This makes it an ideal work at height helmet and also a technical rope rescue helmet.
Although the Super Plasma helmet has not been through the tests for EN397 (Industrial safety helmets), it uses exactly the same shell as the Kask Plasma AQ which has. The Superplasma therefore meets or exceeds the following tests:
- Side deformation (LD)
- Molten metal splash (MM)
- Very low temperatures (-30°C)
- Shock absorption
- Penetration

Kask Plasma AQ Helmet
The lightweight Kask Plasma AQ is a vented safety helmet for industrial use conforming to EN397. The Plasma AQ’s lightness is made possible by the high-density polystyrene insert, which absorbs impact forces. The ‘weaker’ chinstrap which releases between 150N and 250N (15kg-25kg), limits the risk of choking or strangulation, making this safety helmet particularly suitable for Ambulance Hazardous Area Response Teams (HART). It also meets the optional requirements of the mountaineering Standard for helmets EN12492:
- Side deformation (LD)
- Molten metal splash (MM)
- Very low temperatures (-30°C)
- Shock absorption
- Penetration
Although a safety helmet conforming to EN397 is particularly suitable as a groundwork helmet, some Health & Safety officers accept it as a work at height safety helmet. It’s fit for purpose for both uses.

Helmets
The choice of helmet will depend on the type of work being undertaken and the environment in which it will be used. An EN397 weaker chinstrap may be more appropriate in places where there is a risk of snagging and thus a chocking hazard (such as in a confined space). Similarly, where it is important to ensure the helmet does not come off during a fall, such as, when there may be multiple impacts in a fall, the stronger EN12492 may be deemed most appropriate. For rope access, as noted in the IRATA ICOP 2.7.12, 'Users should check carefully the performance of industrial helmets conforming to European Standard EN397 as they might not have the all the performance requirements for the safety of rope access technicians, e.g. front, side and rear energy absorption capacity (not specified in EN397); appropriate chinstrap and fastening arrangement; low temperature use and ventilation (optional in EN397). Helmets utilizing expanded polystyrene shells (common in helmets conforming to European Standard EN12492) are unlikely to withstand the rigours of industrial use and, therefore, are generally not recommended'.
