PETZL Strato Lightweight Safety Helmet – ANSI Z89.1 Type I Class E, Hi-Vis Yellow

Meet the PETZL Strato: a featherlight, modular safety helmet

Weighing about 435 g, Strato blends a hybrid EPP (expanded polypropylene) and EPS (expanded polystyrene) liner that cushions impacts without adding bulk, delivering a comfortable profile you may notice even after hours on site.

Two integrated adjustment systems—Centerfit and Flip & Fit—keep the helmet centered on the head and allow the shell to fold around the headband for compact storage and easy transport. The closed outer shell provides a barrier against electrical hazards, molten metal splash, and flames, while the interior padding remains soft against the scalp with every movement.

The dual chin strap can be adjusted for two resistance levels, making it suitable for work at height (retention) or ground work (strangulation prevention) depending on the task. This flexibility helps you adapt quickly to changing environments while maintaining comfort.

Performance and customization go hand in hand with Strato’s modular design. A Visor Easyclip-ready shell accepts protective visors, and compatible PETZL headlamps or DUO lamps can be attached for hands-free illumination. Optional neck protectors, badge holders, and hearing protection can be added to tailor protection to the job at hand.

On the job, you may be moving through bright outdoors and dim indoors, or working near metal production and sparks. Strato’s design emphasizes practical features you can feel: a lightweight feel, a snug fit, and straightforward storage when the workday ends. The helmet’s lightweight composition helps reduce fatigue, while the adjustable fit ensures a stable, comfortable position as you lift, bend, or climb. Compatibility with a range of accessories makes it a versatile option for crews who switch between heights and ground tasks.
