Baseball Diamond V - Construction Hard Hat

Baseball Diamond V - Construction Hard Hat.Any one had one?According to the write up they are supposed to be lighter than standard helmets but the feedback on Brands E-bay says that they are no different.Any input?

Got any pictures of em pal?

Seen baseball bump caps worn in factories, but would'nt be allowed on sites.

While ago we were allowed to use the base ball type bump caps on Midas sites down here. Thinking behind it was no other trades working in the area we work so less of a danger.

This did not last long as other trades complained.

Also the main problem they are not kite marked.

Hard hats meet the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's guidelines, while bump caps do not. Several other factors come into play when choosing protective head gear.

Bump Cap Benefits
Bump caps are more lightweight than hard hats, making them more comfortable and proving to be less stressful on your neck, head and back. Bump caps are also well ventilated, providing more air flow than hard hats do.
Hard Hat Benefits
Hard hats offer more protection than bump caps. They have an outer shell that is hard and durable to deflect potential head blows. Inside, hard hats have a lining that is shock absorbing. Also, some hard hats can provide protection from electric shocks.
Job Locations
Bump caps are ideal in situations where it is not required to wear a hard hat, but injury could still occur. They are often used in warehouses and food processing plants. Hard hats are worn most commonly on construction sites. Hard hats are often required if you are working near electrical conductors, beams or pipes that are exposed.
