SAR Backcountry Helmet

The SAR Backcountry is the first purpose built Search and Rescue helmet to provide accessory mounting capabilities
while meeting key industrial and mountaineering performance standards. The SAR Backcountry was designed for users that do not intend on mounting night vision devices to their helmet.

This version features a glass-reinforced polycarbonate shroud for mounting cameras and lights. It also includes a sport-style under the chin retention strap with Fidlock magnetic buckle and a Boa Closure System to dial in precise fit adjustment while providing single-handed quick release. The SAR Accessory Rail 2. 0 System is optional.

• Meets the requirements of EN12492:2012 Standard for Mountaineering Helmets
• Meets the requirements of EN1385:2012 Standard for Whitewater Helmets
• Meets Advanced Combat Helmet blunt impact requirements (per AR/PD 10-02 Rev A)
• Meets additional off-crown impact requirements of EN 14052:2012 European standard for high performance industrial helmets

EN 14052 requires a low-strength chinstrap, the SAR Backcountry is not fully certified to EN14052 in order to meet more rigorous chinstrap requirements of EN12492 and reduce the risk of losing the helme(more...)
