Product Description
Milwaukee Universal Bump Cap Insert
Model Number: 48-73-1062
The Milwaukee 48-73-1062 is a Universal Bump Cap Insert — a lightweight protective insert that converts a standard baseball cap into a bump cap for low-clearance work environments where minor overhead impacts from pipes, conduit, low beams, and cabinet edges are a constant hazard that requires protection without the full weight and formality of a hard hat. Bump caps are the appropriate head protection for environments where the hazard is minor bumps and scrapes from stationary objects rather than falling objects or high-energy impacts — electrical work in ceiling spaces, HVAC installation in mechanical rooms, plumbing rough-in in crawlspaces, and confined maintenance work where crouching and working in tight overhead clearances exposes the head to constant low-energy contacts with surrounding structure. The universal insert fits inside the crown of standard baseball caps to provide the protective layer without requiring a dedicated bump cap hat.
The universal fit design accommodates a range of standard baseball cap sizes for use with the wearer's existing work cap — providing bump protection with the comfort and casual appearance of a regular work cap rather than the visible profile of dedicated bump cap products. Milwaukee Work Gear bump cap inserts meet the appropriate standards for bump cap applications — note that bump caps do not meet the ANSI hard hat standards for falling object protection and are not substitutes for hard hats in applications requiring Class E, G, or C hard hat protection.
