Why Bullard GenVX is the Best Choice: • Lighter weight: GenVX is more than a pound lighter than the RPB Nova 2000 and Nova 3.
• Unrestricted Airflow: Nothing blocks the air from cooling the blaster’s head. RPB slows their air flow; air trickles through the foam insert.
• The most air: GenVX delivers the most airflow to the breathing zone, compared to all other blast helmets.
• Coolest Helmet: Bullard’s Cool Tube chills air by up to 45°F (15° more than RPB). • Customizable fit: Adjustable cheek pads allow for stability where you need it, regardless of head shape or size. RPB has no pad adjustments.
• Easy mobility: Approved for use with all of Bullard’s Free-Air® Pumps. RPB has no pumps.
• Built for the hazards blasters face: Bullard understands blast hazards; RPB warning advises wearer not to use their helmet in silica, lead, and glass blasting.
• Better vision, better safety: Bullard offers a 66% larger viewing lens than RPB. • Exceeds current head protection standards: GenVX exceeds (and reflects) current head protection standards; per their markings, RPB helmets are certified to outdated standards.
• Third-party 1,000 APF verification: Bullard has it; RPB doesn’t. • No hygiene kit needed: Bullard cheek pads and covers are easily machine washable. RPB foam inserts are not washable; bacteria, sweat, and odors settle onto the foam.
• Versatile certified options: Bullard is NIOSH-approved with 10 hose fittings (versus RPB’s 1), 3 solid breathing airline colors (versus RPB’s 1), and 4 coiled airline colors (RPB has no coiled option).
• 20% larger 7-stage filtration: Bullard offers a 20% larger 7-stage filtration with solid filter versus RPB’s 6-stage. RPB’s filter is not even for use in silica, lead, and glass blasting.
• Self-calibrating CO Monitor: In just 90 seconds, Bullard CO Monitor
self-calibrates; RPB’s Radex cannot be calibrated in the field without voiding the warranty after six months.
• All-in-one CO Monitor and Filtration: Bullard offers CO Monitor and filtration complete in one part with individual regulators; RPB doesn’t.
• Remote alarm with strobe: Bullard’s remote alarm has a strobe; RPB doesn’t offer a remote alarm.
• Individual regulators: Bullard’s Remote Air Manifolds come with individual regulators; RPB offers no remote connections.
• Lowest cost replacement parts: Bullard offers a lower total cost of ownership than RPB. • Best warranty: Bullard offers a two-year unconditional warranty versus RPB’s one-year warranty. On Cool Tubes, Bullard offers one-year warranty versus RPB’s three-month warranty. BULLARD.COM
