The ones I've owned were fiberglass but I've heard there are carbon fiber hats out there that are even lighter.

The last company I worked for insisted that all employees wear their hardhats, no other brands or colors allowed.
Onliest problem was, they didn't go big enuff her my gargantuan noggin.
Pretty sure they went up to 7-7/8 and I needed at least 8-1/2

I hated putting that thing on and eventually claimed it was a health issue and got a waiver to wear my own hat. That started al kinds of trouble.

I wore hardhats for almost 40 years but not as much as i got older and turned into an office rat.AB or MSA fiberglass hard hats are the kind because they are so light.

Here's a big +1! Once you wear a fiberglass brain bucket, the plastic ones feel even worse. I wore one for years when I was a commercial electrician, and the difference was night and day when I switched.

Hard hat lifespan may vary depending on the conditions of each work site. Hard hats subjected to more wear and tear or used outdoors in direct sunlight may need to be replaced more frequently. Daily inspections are the best way to determine when to replace a hard hat shell, suspension, or the entire unit. Suggested replacement is based on service life (Based on when the hard hat was placed into service, not the manufacture date).

As a general guideline we recommend replacing hard hats every five years regardless of outside appearance, but this can vary due to use and job site conditions
