MSA V-Gard 4-Point Pinlock Suspension

The MSA 10087218 is a replacement head-protection suspension designed for V-Gard hard hats. It uses a four-point pinlock system to secure the cradle to the shell, fitting head sizes from 6-1/2 to 8. Workers needing to refresh or repair compatible MSA helmets can install this unit without tools.

Suits crews standardising on V-Gard shells

This suspension fits the V-Gard models listed by Grainger part numbers such as 10E656, 22EY73 through 22EY89, 38ZL94, 38ZM05, 3PUP8, 3PUP9, 3RRL2 through 3RRL5, 3RRT2, 3RRT3, 4LN68, 4LN76, 4LN83, 4LN85, 4LN94, 4LP02, 4MD02, 8UWM3 and 9D111. Buyers with non-V-Gard helmets or hat sizes outside the 6-1/2 to 8 range should look at other suspensions.

Pinlock retention holds under daily site use

The four-point pinlock attachment distributes impact forces across the cradle and maintains its grip during repeated donning and doffing. The suspension remains seated in the shell through shifts involving bending, climbing and sudden movement, reducing the need for frequent readjustment compared with simpler two-point systems.
