Key Features
Overview
The Klein Tools Class E Type-2 Hard Hat, Non-Vented Full Brim Style with Strap, Gray (60863T2) is a non-vented, full brim Type 2 hard hat rated for electrical work. This is an electrical-rated full brim hard hat designed for trades that cannot rule out contact with live parts. It combines a gray, non-vented Class E shell with Klein's 6-point suspension and patented headlamp mounts.
Two ratings matter here. Type 2 under ANSI Z89.1-2014 (R2019) means it is tested for impact on the top, front, back and sides. Class E means the non-vented shell is tested up to 20kV. The HT-LT marking adds high- and low-temperature testing.
Full brim coverage helps on outdoor service work: sun stays off your neck and rain stays off your safety glasses. The PC alloy shell measures about 13-15/16" x 11" x 11-1/2" (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.
Gray is a lower-key shell color that suits inspectors, supervisors and plant crews where bright colors are reserved for other roles. Underneath, it is the same non-vented Class E full brim hat as Klein's other colors. The hat weighs 2 lb (907 g) as listed by Klein. Who should buy it: supervisors, inspectors and plant electricians who want a gray shell with Class E protection.
