MSA Cairns® 360S Structural Fire Helmet
![]()
The MSA Cairns® 360S Structural Fire Helmet combines structural firefighting protection with a lightweight, low-profile thermoplastic design suited for firefighters working in confined spaces, rescue environments, and EMS operations.
Its through-color high-temperature thermoplastic shell resists cracking and chipping, while the internal high-temperature foam impact cap provides thermal and impact protection. Adjustable suspension components help accommodate different head shapes and improve compatibility with SCBA facepieces.

Current MSA Cairns 360S helmets are certified to applicable NFPA 1970 (1971) – 2025 structural firefighting requirements. Certification is configuration-specific and should be confirmed on the approval label of the helmet supplied.
