Klein Tools has been making gear for electricians since 1857, and the 60564 is built with that trade in mind. It’s a non-vented Type 2 helmet rated Class E, which means the shell is proof-tested to 20,000 volts. If you work around live panels, switchgear or overhead lines, Class E is the rating you need. The Type 2 rating adds side, front and rear impact protection on top of that.<\/p>\n
The 60564 is compact. Klein designed it for work at height and in confined spaces, with a low-profile shell and a short bill that doesn’t block your view when you look up at a panel or cable tray. It’s a good fit for crawl spaces, ceilings and lifts, where a big brim gets in the way.<\/p>\n
The 6-point suspension adjusts with a ratchet knob and pivots for a better fit. The chin strap is removable, so you can take it off where your site allows. Klein says the helmet stays stable even when you tilt your head, which matches what owners report. The padded sweatband and top pad wick sweat and go in the washing machine.<\/p>\n
Klein’s patented accessory mounts on the front and back let you click a Klein headlamp on without straps. Side slots take hearing protection, visors and face shields. If you want the light included, Klein sells the same helmet with a rechargeable headlamp as the 60525.<\/p>\n
It’s certified to ANSI Z89.1-2014 (R2019) and CSA Z94.1-2015, so it works on Canadian sites too.<\/p>\n
The downsides come with the design. There’s almost no brim, so it gives little shade or rain cover. And because it’s non-vented, it runs warmer than vented helmets in summer. For electrical work, that’s the right trade.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
