The unique attachment system
The principle of not adding weight without function, led to the development of the NFM HASP™. The system enables technical devices and camouflage to easily be attached to the helmet, without adding unnecessary weight.
For most combat helmets on the market, Velcro® has been used as an attachment system to fasten devices like ID patches, IFF devices, and cameras. But the strength of this material degrades over time, which may result in an unreliable connection to the helmet.
The 360° HASP™ Helmet Attachment System Pattern replaces the Velcro loop with a high strength composite that provides a stronger and more reliable system throughout the shell exterior. Devices can now be mechanically attached without fear of the connection failing.
Small equipment-specific bases with extra safety latches can be used to secure heavier equipment, and simple, flat Velcro bases for patches (unit ID patches, etc.). The HASP™ is removable so that it could be replaced even in the field if it does become damaged.
Different types of camouflage can easily be attached and adapted to the HASP™ system, including natural material like leaves, knots and grass, or textile versions like the NFM Troll Hair™ or helmet covers. The HJELM™ surface is receptive to NFM’s EC paint™, providing greater customization options to suit any environment.
The HASP™ represents a highly adaptable and robust system designed to provide the utmost flexibility in combat helmet applications. This innovative solution is crafted with a focus on the end-user, ensuring versatility and durability for optimal performance in all operational scenarios.
