LAND Safety Frontier Class E Type 2 Helmet

The LAND Safety Frontier is a Class E Type 2 helmet, the combination many tree crews need for line clearance and ground work. Class E refers to electrical protection, and Type 2 means the helmet is designed for both top and lateral impact.

Why Class E and Type 2 matter

In ANSI Z89.1 terms, Class E helmets are tested for electrical protection, and Type 2 helmets protect against impact to the top and sides of the head. For tree work that is a strong pairing: a limb that glances off the side of your head is just as common as one that drops straight down. Crews doing line clearance or working from a bucket near conductors often specify Class E.

Look at the label inside the shell to confirm the exact ratings of the helmet you receive.

A non-vented shell is also a good choice for ground crews feeding the chipper or running a saw on the deck, where falling debris and wet weather are a bigger concern than airflow.

Fit and care

Set the suspension so the helmet sits level and snug, then add a chin strap if you will be climbing or working at height. Keep paint, stickers and solvents off the shell unless the maker approves them. Any helmet used for tree work should meet the standard your employer and ANSI Z133 require, be worn as the manufacturer instructs, and be replaced after a hard impact or when the shell or suspension shows damage.
