Key takeaways
- The Pro Choice Air Bump Lite bump cap (BCAB) is certified to EN812:2012 for knocks and scrapes in low-clearance work.

- The cap adjusts to fit 53-64cm, and the AIRBUMP Flex Liner and foam-padded insert absorb minor impacts.
- Airflow vents and channels keep the wearer cool, and the outer cap is washable.

Where should you wear an Air Bump Lite bump cap?
Bump caps suit warehousing and racking, vehicle servicing, confined spaces, plant and machinery maintenance, and similar low-headroom work where the hazard is bumping a fixed object rather than being struck from above. Wear the Air Bump Lite only where nothing can fall or swing onto the head.

Frequently asked questions
Can an Air Bump Lite bump cap replace a hard hat?
No. A bump cap certified to EN812 protects against bumps and scrapes from stationary objects in low-clearance spaces, and offers no protection against falling or swinging objects. Where that hazard exists, an industrial safety helmet to AS/NZS 1801 is required instead.
What head sizes does the Air Bump Lite bump cap fit?
The Air Bump Lite adjusts to fit a 53-64cm head circumference, which is the only fit range the specifications list. Measure around the head before ordering, and check the sizing on the Done Right Safety listing if the wearer sits near either end of that range.
What standard does the Air Bump Lite bump cap meet?
The Air Bump Lite is certified to EN812:2012, the standard for industrial bump caps. EN812 covers bumps and scrapes against stationary objects in low-clearance spaces, not impact from falling objects, which is the job of an industrial safety helmet to AS/NZS 1801.
Is the Air Bump Lite bump cap ventilated and washable?
Yes. Airflow vents and channels on the Air Bump Lite keep the wearer cool, and the outer cap is washable. The specifications list the cap as ventilated, low-profile and washable, so check the care details on the Done Right Safety listing before washing it.
