Special Notes:

1. Phenix Helmets must be ordered with BOTH Earlaps and Goggles to be NFPA 1971 compliant. Please consult your agency requirements before ordering a non-NFPA compliant helmet.

2. Helmets ordered with rear brim name stamping are non-returnable, so please triple check the spelling before submitting your order.

3. First Out Rescue Equipment does not stock TL-2 helmets. There are two reasons for this. First is that there are hundreds of possible configurations and we can’t read your mind until you place your order (then it’s easy). The second is that every TL-2 Helmet is custom built to your specifications.  Current leads times are running 8 weeks. With the NFPA 1851 10 year service life limit on helmets we want you to receive your new helmet within a week or so of its “born on date”.

4. TL-2 Helmet Shield mounting posts are set-up for wide body shields. If you want to use your existing shield and it is not a wide body shield, it will not fit your new helmet. Custom shield mounting post placement is NOT available on Phenix TL-2 Helmets.
