GORE Particulate Hood - GEN 2 - Nomex Blend

Majestic

PROTECTION + COMFORT + DURABILITY... at an affordable price.

 

The GORE® Particulate Hood GEN2 delivers the improved comfort you asked for without compromising the certified protection you need, so you can answer each call with comfort and confidence.

Why a Particulate Hood?
As we continue to learn more about harmful contaminants on the fireground, the need for protection against these particulate hazards has become even more crucial. Wearing a particulate hood as part of your turnout gear delivers the additional protection you need while on scene.

Improved Comfort
The level of comfort you get from the GORE® Particulate Hood GEN2has been improved for a more natural feel without compromising protection. GORE GEN2 Hoods level of breathability helps reduce heat stress, enabling you to wear the hood longer at the fireground.

Protection
The GORE® Particulate Hood GEN2 exceeds BOTH the thermal protection requirement of NFPA 1971, 2018 Edition and the particulate-blocking requirements with a protective barrier that blocks more than 99.99 percent of potentially harmful particulates. This hood delivers reliable protection throughout the entire hood — even blocking smoke at critical seams more effectively than other particulate hoods currently available. At the same time, the construction is optimized to reduce interference with sounds and signals on the fireground.

Reliability
This exceptionally reliable GEN2 hood retains its level of more than 99.99 percent particulate-blocking performance even after laundering. Its unique inspection opening enables you to inspect the entire hood visually, inside and out.

Prevention
The GEN2 NOMEX Blend Hood has contrasting colors — white on the outside and blue on the inside, helping you to prevent cross-contamination. The GORE® Particulate Hood GEN2 combines the expertise of the industry leader in comfort and barrier technology with the skill of one of the most respected hood manufacturers, Majestic Fire Apparel.

Air Permeability is a Two-Way Street
Products with higher air permeability potentially decrease protection against fireground contaminants because they can allow more air and particles to pass through a barrier. Instead, products that combine high breathability and a higher particle-blocking efficiency deliver a better balance of comfort and protection. With the GEN2 hood, Gore has achieved more than 99.99 percent particulate blocking*, while delivering improved comfort through high moisture vapor breathability.

Manufacturer Note:

It has come to the attention of Majestic Fire Apparel that aftermarket customizations and modifications are being made to Majestic Fire Apparel hoods including:

• Embroidery by non-NFPA compliant companies
• Using non-NFPA compliant thread
• Not following ISO manufacturing procedures

ANY aftermarket customization or modifications made to a NFPA Compliant protective hood will void the hood warranty rendering the hood non-NFPA compliant. The safety of the end-user is Majestic’s primary concern.
