Rule 3345. (1) A headgear shall consist of at least a headband and a crown strap. The
headgear shall be made from materials having a low heat conductivity. The design shall
hold the window and window support comfortably and firmly in place on the wearer's
head and shall provide for tilting the window away from the face.
(2) A headgear shall be readily adjustable to head sizes from 6 1/2 to 7 5/8 without
the use of tools. The crown strap or band shall be attached to and extend between the
front and rear centers or from the middle sides of the headband. It shall form an arc over
the head to assist in positioning and holding the headgear in place. An adjusting device
shall be positive and hold firmly in place after being adjusted. Its mechanisms and
movements shall be protected so that the wearer's hair cannot catch in the device.
(3) For greater protection, a headgear may be replaced by an impact-resistant hat or
cap to which the window support is connected. The attachment may be either rigid or
swiveled. If swiveled, the design shall permit lifting and adjusting the window to permit
unobstructed vision or lowering to furnish protection.
