In the world of headlamps, you’ll see plenty of heavy-duty straps that fasten a headlamp to a helmet or a hardhat. However, Nightstick believes that shouldn’t be the only option available.
After all, even the best headbands and straps can wear down due to extensive usage and constant exposure to the elements. So, Nightstick introduced an entire series of ZERO-BAND Headlamps and included a secure mounting mechanism with every light.
Until now, helmet mounting brackets have historically increased the overall cost for a headlamp. However, Nightstick’s addition of the model NS-HMC4 Hard Hat Clip Mount with every light effectively addresses this need. It also prevents the user from having to spend additional money and time searching for aftermarket solution that securely fastens the light to their hard hat.
“Headlamp elastic bands and rubberized straps require users to purchase strap retainer clips or retention system add-ons, and that’s a hidden cost,” says Russell Hoppe, Marketing Manager for Nightstick. “The obvious way for us to provide the greatest benefit was to remove the band altogether. This eliminated the need for additional clips and retainers that secure the band position on a hard hat. We then doubled the value by including a helmet lamp bracket with every Zero-Band Headlamp without increasing the cost. Our goal is to set ourselves apart by providing a comprehensive all-inclusive solution without asking customers to purchase more after receiving less.”
The NS-HMC4 easily and securely bonds to a hard hat using a sturdy industry approved PSA material. Inspired by attachment methods consistently used in mining industry cap lamps, each included helmet lamp bracket is designed to be lightweight and durable. The tilting-head design allows the user to change the light position without having to readjust. The Zero-Band Series offers users different functionality options, including four Intrinsically Safe Dual-Light™ (spotlight/floodlight) Headlamps and one Dual-Function (high/low beam) Headlamp model. No drilling is required.
The Zero-Band Headlamps feature models NSP-4608BC, XPP-5460GCX, XPP-5454GC, XPP-5452GC and XPP-5450GC. All five models are IP-X7 rated waterproof and feature an integrated stainless-steel clip that makes it possible to wear the headlamp securely. As a bonus, three AAA batteries are included to power each light. Learn more about these headlamps here.
