The TrakLite features eight bright, durable dome-style LEDs protected behind a heat-resistant glass, and designed to cast a smooth, evenly-distributed 38 lumens of white light over a very wide area. No blinding hot spots, dark circles, or sharp cut-off—just the diffused area lighting you need to safely navigate in dark areas, indoors or out.
With its tough, lightweight, waterproof, battery pack mounted beneath the rear brim of the helmet, TrakLite provides a safe, reliable source of light that’s snag-proof, perfectly balanced, and always available.

See and be seen. In addition to the eight forward-facing LEDs, TrakLite has a bright blue, “buddy indicator" light mounted on the battery box at rear of the helmet. This bright, extremely visible tail light makes it far easier for those behind to track the wearer, even in smoky and very low visibility situations.
Engineered for reliable performance—with safety first. The weight of TrakLite is perfectly centered from side-to-side, and distributed between the front and rear of the helmet to offer a more balanced lighting solution. With no protruding attachments, external clips, brackets, or wires, Bullard TrakLite reduces the likelihood of weight imbalance, or becoming snagged on obstructions or gear.
When properly closed its virtually unbreakable Ultrem battery pack, lighting unit, and all connections are a completely waterproof, chemical-resistant sealed system, rated for use in volatile environments and hazmat situations. You can count on your Bullard TrakLite-equipped helmet to provide increased safety and additional utility over most traditional helmet-mounted lighting. Plus it’s an excellent compliment to a more highly focused smoke-cutting hand-held fire flashlight or lantern.
Simple, efficient,so easy to use. Even with a thickly gloved hand, this system is a snap to operate. Just a flick of the single rotary switch turns on both the front LEDs and the rear buddy indicator light. The energy efficient TrakLite is conveniently powered by four standard AAA alkaline batteries. Each set of inexpensive, disposable batteries provides at least six hours of continuous runtime, to a minimum 50% brightness. Batteries can be quickly and easily replaced in the field with just a Phillips head screwdriver.

PX Thermoplastic helmets. Sleek, lightweight, modern—engineered to give firefighters an extra edge.
Contemporary Style. Heavy Duty. PX Series fire helmets are designed Bullard Tough™ for extreme conditions. PX fire helmets incorporate recommendations from veteran fire professionals from around the world. With a lightweight contemporary look, a lower profile, and compact less-restrictive design than traditional styles. A low center of gravity provides superior balance. Choose the extremely comfortable, PX for proven on-the-job performance and long-lasting durability.
Superior Comfort
A low center of gravity provides both models with a balanced and stable fit, increasing overall comfort. Adding to the helmet's comfort and security is a natural leather ratchet pad.
Quick, Easy Sizing
Bullard's Sure-Lock ratchet headband adjusts to the wearer's head with a quick turn of the knob. Additional adjustment points permit custom fit, personalized balance and interface with the SCBA.
Tough, Durable Protection
The outer shell of the PX is made of high head thermoplastic formulated especially for Bullard. This material provides greater impact and penetration resistance than fiberglass and resists degradation better after repeated high heat exposures. The PX model has the color molded through the shell.
Cost-Effective Maintenance
Bullard helmets are designed from the start to make maintenance simple and cost effective. For example, the browpad can easily be removed and cleaned. Competitive helmets have the browpad sewn into the headband making for awkward cleaning and very expensive replacement.
Maximum Visibility
PX helmets feature 3M Scotchlite striping which retains reflectivity to 500° F (260° C). That makes Scotchlite the toughest material available for helmet markings. PX helmets also feature the unique R330 optically-correct faceshield. The R330 eliminates distortion and reduces eye stress and fatigue.
