Durable

The PAS Lite is made of durable components that you can count on…strong, durable harness materials and carbon composite space frame and the same pneumatics as found in professional fire fighting breathing apparatus ensure the workers can count on it when they need it. The PAS Lite harness scored 5 times higher than standard harness materials on the Martindale test for durability.
