Mount with Required PPE
Product Description
The RealWear Hard Hat Band is a helmet mounting accessory for attaching the RealWear Navigator 520 to compatible standard front-brim hard hats. The flexible rubber band stretches around the helmet, while the included clips add retention and help prevent the band from slipping during movement. It also supports offset or bias mounting where helmet geometry requires different positioning for the Navigator display pod. For construction, maintenance and industrial teams that must wear protective headgear, the Hard Hat Band offers a practical way to integrate assisted-reality workflows with existing PPE. It is not designed for full-brim hard hats or helmets fitted with mounted earmuffs.

Integrate with PPE
The rubber band stretches around many standard front-brim hard hats, creating a mounting point for the RealWear Navigator 520.
- Rubber Band
- Front-Brim Helmets
This supports teams that need hands-free digital workflows while continuing to use required protective headgear in industrial environments.
Extra Retention
Universal hat clips and optional band clips help hold the mounting band in place and reduce slipping around the helmet.
- Hat Clips
- Band Clips
A more secure mount helps maintain display positioning while workers walk, inspect equipment or perform maintenance tasks.
Flexible Positioning
The mounting design supports bias positioning, which can help accommodate larger helmet shapes and align the display pod with the user.
- Bias Mounting
- Adjustable Setup
This gives organizations more flexibility when integrating the Navigator with different approved hard hat models across a workforce.
RealWear Hard Hat Band for Business
The RealWear Hard Hat Band mounts the RealWear Navigator 520 to compatible standard front-brim hard hats. The flexible rubber band and universal hat clips let the headset sit on the helmet a worker already wears, rather than requiring a second piece of headgear. VR Expert AI supplies it to construction, utilities and industrial teams where a hard hat is mandatory and the device has to work with it.
Volume Pricing and Bulk Orders
As a RealWear distributor, VR Expert AI offers volume pricing and business invoicing on mounting hardware. Fleets typically order one band per helmet-wearing user, plus spares, since retention parts are the components that wear first. Request a quote with your quantity for bulk pricing.
Integrating with Existing PPE
Head-mounted devices struggle with adoption when they conflict with safety equipment. Mounting to the helmet keeps the display in position without displacing the hard hat, and the supplied band clips add retention for workers who bend, climb or work at height. The band contains no electronics, so it adds nothing new to charge, certify or manage.
Choosing Between Mounting Options
Not every site requires a helmet. For work without a hard hat, teams pair the same headset with the Workband 2 or the Tri-Band Strap, and many fleets keep a mix so one device can move between roles. All three are part of the smart glasses accessories range alongside charging and power accessories for the same platform.
