Product information "FireDex - H41 Interceptor® Firefighting Hood with Nomex Nano Flex"
H41 Interceptor® Hood with Nomex® Nano Flex
The H41 Interceptor® Hood with Nomex® Nano Flex offers superior protection against fireground carcinogens while maintaining exceptional comfort and breathability. Designed with Fire-Dex’s classic hood pattern and enhanced with particulate-blocking technology, this hood reduces exposure to harmful contaminants in high-risk areas such as the neck, jawline, and face—without compromising thermal performance or mobility.
Key Features:
Particulate-Blocking Protection: Filters fireground particulates down to 0.2 microns in size, with filtration performance up to 4x greater than standard hoods.
Nomex® Nano Flex Panel Construction: Delivers secure coverage while reducing bulk around the chin and neck for a better fit with turnout gear and SCBA.
Certified to NFPA 1971: Meets or exceeds current safety standards for structural firefighting PPE.
High Thermal & Breathability Ratings: Offers a TPP of 37.5 and a THL of 388, balancing heat protection with excellent breathability.
Durable & Lightweight: Thin, flexible, and laminated to reduce tearing while maintaining long-lasting performance and comfort.
Available in Two Styles:
Total Coverage: Features full particulate-blocking protection across the entire hood, including the ears, jawline, top of the head, and bib.
Zone Coverage: Focuses on the most vulnerable areas, including the face and neck, for a cost-effective option that still meets NFPA requirements.
This hood was first introduced in 2016 as part of Fire-Dex’s response to growing awareness of carcinogen exposure on the fireground. Today, it remains one of the most trusted options among fire departments prioritizing both protection and performance.
