Caution Bulletin

USE OF AFTER MARKET OR NON-GENUINE KIRBY MORGAN® PARTS

The purpose of this bulletin is to CAUTION against using non-genuine Kirby Morgan parts. Kirby Morgan equipment has been designed, built, and tested to exacting specifications for proper fit form and function and your safety! All components of Kirby Morgan® Helmets and BandMasks® are CR and CE compliant.

Be aware that even something as "simple" as a Kirby Morgan® Head Cushion has undergone stringent testing in order to gain CE approval (very expensive) so that it can be sold in CE countries. The head cushion has also gone through trials, analysis, and evaluation for CR compliance and military approval.

A cheaper, un-tested, NON-GENUINE Head Cushion can present the danger of foam that could off-gas toxic fumes or exude toxic liquids if wet!
