Overview
The Klein Tools Class E Type-2 Hard Hat, Non-Vented Full Brim Style with Strap, Blue (60249T2) is a non-vented, full brim Type 2 hard hat rated for electrical work. This is an electrical-rated safety helmet designed for electricians, utility crews and anyone working around energized equipment. It combines a blue, non-vented Class E shell with Klein's 6-point suspension and patented headlamp mounts.
Protection: Klein tests it to ANSI Z89.1-2014 (R2019) HT-LT, Type 2, for impact to the top, front, back and sides, and Class E, tested up to 20kV. The HT-LT marking means it is tested for high- and low-temperature performance. The solid, non-vented shell is what makes the Class E rating possible.
The full brim gives all-around shade and sheds rain away from your face and neck, which makes a real difference on long outdoor days. The PC alloy shell measures about 13-15/16" long x 11" wide x 11-1/2" tall (35.4 x 28 x 29.3 cm).
Fit and comfort: the 6-point suspension uses a ratchet with pivot adjustment and fits hat sizes 6-1/2 to 8. Six contact points spread the load and leave room for air to move, and the padded, sweat-wicking, odor-resistant sweatband and top pad are machine washable. A detachable 4-point padded chin strap is included for ladders, lifts and windy days.
The patented accessory mounts are the standout. A Klein headlamp clips on with no strap around the shell, so it does not slip or block vents and labels. Compatible lights per Klein: rechargeable headlamps KHH56308, 56048, 56062 and 56414, and the 56063 safety lamp, all sold separately. Universal slots on the front, back and both sides handle the rest of your add-ons.
Blue is a common color on sites that sort hats by role or trade, so the 60249T2 makes it easy to stock a matching set for a crew. The shell color is the only difference from Klein's other non-vented Class E hats; protection, suspension and accessory mounts are the same. The hat weighs 2 lb (907 g) as listed by Klein. Who should buy it: electricians and utility workers who need dielectric protection and want a blue shell.

Pro Tip
When you fit the 6-point suspension, set the ratchet so the hat stays put when you look down into a panel without the chin strap. Then use the 4-point strap for ladder and lift work, where a hat that slides off is a hat that falls.
