Description
The VERTEX VENT helmet is very comfortable, thanks to its six-point textile suspension and CENTERFIT and FLIP&FIT systems, which guarantee that the helmet fits securely on the head. The adjustable-strength chinstrap makes it ideal for both work at height and on the ground. It has ventilation holes with sliding shutters to allow airflow through the helmet. With its potential for integration of a Petzl headlamp, hearing protection, and multiple accessories, it is an entirely modular helmet, thus responding to the specific additional needs of professionals.
- The six-point webbing suspension system adapts to the shape of your head to provide maximum comfort.
- The CENTERFIT feature allows perfect centering of the helmet on the head, thanks to its two side adjustment wheels.
- It has ventilation holes with sliding shutters to allow the ventilation to be adjusted as needed.
- Head circumference: 53-63cm

Petzl Helmet Maintenance Guide
Care and maintenance tips
- You can personalise your helmet by writing (for example) your name, address, blood type, etc.
- Marking is authorised only on the comfort parts and not on the safety parts. You can use an adhesive tape or a tag attached with a cable tie. No paint! Refer to the recommendations in the Instructions For Use.
- Certain helmets have a place designed for transparent or reflective stickers. Use only stickers supplied by Petzl. They are available as spare parts.
- In case of heavy perspiration, protect the inside of the helmet with a head covering (e.g. bandana).
- Do not compress your helmet in a pack
- Do not sit on a helmet.
Maintenance
- After use in a salty environment (seaside), rinse with fresh water.
- Wash helmets in lukewarm soapy water (pH neutral, 30 °C maximum), then rinse thoroughly with fresh tap water.
- Use only household face and body soap. All other cleaning products, for example, solvents, stain removers, degreasers, etc., are not compatible with polycarbonate, polystyrene, or nylon and can weaken the helmet.
- The shell of ABS helmets can be cleaned with a cloth lightly moistened with rubbing alcohol. Warning: Do not dip the helmet directly in alcohol.
- Do not use a high-pressure water sprayer
Repair
The headlamp clips and the male part of the chinstrap buckle can be replaced. The comfort foams are available as
replacement parts. All can be ordered.
