APEX Full Brim Face Shield Bracket (2-Pack)

This weight-compensating face shield bracket is built for the Malta Dynamics APEX Type 2 Full Brim Safety Helmet. The weight-compensating design centers the face shield when stowed, so the visor sits balanced and out of the way rather than pulling the helmet forward. The LeverLock attachment system swaps face shield windows fast and tool-free, while press-to-release slotted cap adapters let the whole bracket come off in seconds.

The blue nylon bracket meets ANSI Z87.1 and ships in a two-pack, so a crew can outfit multiple APEX helmets at once. It carries Malta Dynamics toric face shield windows - a clear high-temp and impact window or a Shade 5 green nanoparticle welding and cutting window - both with the LeverLock hole pattern.

Who Needs This Product

This bracket is for crews running the Malta Dynamics APEX Type 2 Full Brim Safety Helmet who need a face shield carrier - either as the original bracket for a new toric window setup or as a replacement for a worn bracket. It is the mounting hardware only; the toric face shield window is purchased separately. The two-pack outfits multiple helmets in one order. Workers must still wear ANSI Z87.1-approved safety glasses or goggles under the face shield for primary eye protection.

Features

Weight-compensating design

Centers the face shield in the stowed position for a compact, balanced assembly that does not pull the helmet forward.

LeverLock attachment

The LeverLock system swaps toric face shield windows quickly and tool-free, so crews change from clear to welding shade in the field.

Press-to-release adapters

Slotted cap adapters press to release, so the bracket comes off the APEX helmet in seconds without tools.

APEX full brim fit

Designed for seamless integration with the Malta Dynamics APEX Type 2 Full Brim Safety Helmet slotted cap.

Toric window ready

Carries clear high-temp and impact windows or Shade 5 green welding and cutting windows, both with the LeverLock hole pattern.

Two-pack value

Ships as two brackets so a crew can equip more than one APEX helmet from a single order.

The bracket is the carrier, not the shield. This product is the mounting bracket only - the toric face shield window is sold separately. A face shield is also secondary protection: always wear ANSI Z87.1-approved safety glasses or goggles under the visor. Confirm your helmet is a Malta Dynamics APEX Type 2 Full Brim slotted cap helmet before ordering.

Setup Overview

Install per the Malta Dynamics instructions. The sequence below is an overview only.

  1. Confirm the helmet. Verify the helmet is a Malta Dynamics APEX Type 2 Full Brim slotted cap helmet.
  2. Mount the bracket. Seat the slotted cap adapters into the helmet until they lock.
  3. Install the window. Snap a Malta Dynamics toric face shield window into the LeverLock pattern - clear or Shade 5 green.
  4. Wear eye protection. Put on ANSI Z87.1-approved safety glasses or goggles under the face shield.
  5. Check the balance. Stow the shield and confirm the weight-compensating bracket centers it.
  6. Remove when needed. Press the slotted cap adapters to release the bracket without tools.

Inspection and Care

Inspect the bracket and window before each use. Remove from service for any of the conditions below.

  • Bracket: cracks, broken LeverLock tabs, or slotted cap adapters that no longer lock.
  • Pivot: a stow position that no longer holds the shield balanced and clear.
  • Window: cracks, deep scratches, crazing, or heat distortion that blocks vision.
  • Helmet: any APEX helmet damage - replace the helmet per its own inspection schedule.

Clean with mild soap and water. Avoid solvents that can craze the window. Store away from direct heat and sunlight.

Frequently Asked Questions

What helmet does this bracket fit?
It is designed for the Malta Dynamics APEX Type 2 Full Brim Safety Helmet. The press-to-release slotted cap adapters seat into the APEX helmet, and the weight-compensating bracket centers the toric face shield when stowed. Confirm your helmet is the APEX Type 2 Full Brim slotted cap model before ordering.
Does this include the face shield window?
No. This product is the mounting bracket only. The toric face shield windows - clear high-temp and impact, or Shade 5 green for welding and cutting - are sold separately. Both windows use the LeverLock hole pattern and snap into this bracket tool-free.
How many brackets come in the pack?
This is a two-pack: two weight-compensating brackets per order, so a crew can outfit two APEX helmets or keep a spare on hand. Each bracket is blue nylon and weighs about 0.2 lb.
What is the weight-compensating design for?
The weight-compensating bracket centers the face shield in the stowed position. That keeps the assembly compact and balanced so the visor does not pull the helmet forward or off-center when it is lifted out of the way.
How does the LeverLock system work?
LeverLock is a tool-free attachment that lets you swap toric face shield windows in the field. A worker can change from a clear window to a Shade 5 welding window without tools, then press the slotted cap adapters to pull the whole bracket off the helmet.
Does the face shield replace safety glasses?
No. The face shield is secondary protection. Workers must wear ANSI Z87.1-approved safety glasses or goggles under the shield for primary eye protection. The toric window adds face and lower-face coverage on top of that.
Is this bracket compatible with other brands?
The bracket is built for the Malta Dynamics APEX slotted cap helmet, and the windows are also compatible with Paulson weight-compensating brackets for slotted cap helmets. For a guaranteed fit and a Z87.1 assembly, pair it with a Malta Dynamics APEX helmet and toric window.
