MILWAUKEE, WI –Designed to meet the needs of service contractors, Milwaukee® expands its personal protective equipment lineup introducing two new protective Bump Cap solutions that offer enhanced head protection while maintaining a stylish, baseball cap-like appearance. Delivering a protective solution before transitioning to a hard hat, these Bump Caps are designed for environments where hard hats or helmets are not required, but users still need head protection from user generated impacts that could result in bumps, abrasions, and punctures. Ideal for professionals in MEP, HVAC, Remodeling, Automotive, Facility Maintenance and Repair, Milwaukee's Black Mesh Bump Cap and Universal Insert provide new, enhanced head protection and comfort in the field. 

“Through field research alongside users, we identified feedback surrounding unmet safety needs for service professionals,” explains Austin Dorman, Senior Product Manager at Milwaukee Tool. “While professionals want to remain safety focused, many do not work in an environment where typical hardhats are required. Our Bump Caps are optimized for working in confined spaces where professionals run the risk of bumping their head on static objects such as pipes, tabletops, nails, machinery, and other fixed structures.” 

The Milwaukee Black Mesh Bump Cap delivers a premium option for professionals who need the best side protection with a more comfortable fit, providing a solution beyond the established safety standards. This Snapback Black Mesh Bump Cap features a larger foam liner for more side protection, while the comfortable foam provides top protection from minor head injuries like bumps and scrapes when working in tight spaces. Intended to keep users heads cool while working, this cap is designed with a lightweight mesh material and a breathable fitted shell with ventilation holes. This Bump Cap blends style and comfort for everyday wear, featuring a sleek hook and loop patch for easy customization and a snap back closure method.  With a unique shell design, professionals are provided with a better fit for various head sizes and shapes.

For further versatility on the job, the Bump Cap Universal Insert provides professionals with a flexible insert solution, delivering the best top and side protection in the users preferred cap. This Universal Insert features a foam liner for best top and side protection, while the breathable fitted shell has ventilation holes to help keep users’ head cool while working. Ideal for working in tight spaces, this insert provides puncture and abrasion protection while its’ unique shell design delivers a better fit and is designed to be compatible with traditional caps.
Milwaukee is committed to delivering best-in-class trade-focused solutions for professionals on the jobsite, prioritizing the well-being of users by delivering reliable and effective safety solutions. Both the Milwaukee Black Mesh Bump Cap and the Milwaukee Universal Insert are covered by a limited lifetime warranty.
