FAST Maritime might be fitted with one of three suspension
systems. Standard one is WormDial hybrid padding system
with regulated headband and suspension pads, same as in
FAST High Cut helmets.
WormDial is based on the legacy OCC Dial Liner which was a
truly revolutionary concept in helmet stabilization. The rear-
-mounted flat worm dial allows the user to adjust tension
of the fitband around the circumference of the head.
Coupled with the excellent Ops Core Chin Strap, the
OCC Dial System provides unparalleled stability
when wearing night vision goggles.
The system is completed with
repositionable EPP Impact
Pads and LDV Closed
Cell Com-
f o r t
Foam. There are two top pads, two side pads, and one rear
pad. Both 1/2" and 3/4" thick top and rear pads are supplied
with the helmet for proper fitting. If a headset with headband
is going to be used, the top pads are positioned with a gap
between them for the headband, and the side pads are
omitted. The front/forehead EPP impact liner/pad is non-re-
movable. These pads are not affected by temperature, alti-
tude, or moisture like the legacy MICH/ACH pads.
WormDial allows for ease configuration and regula-
tion without taking the helmet off the head. The
FAST Maritime helmet has the Head-
-Loc Retention system inte-
grated with the headband,
which provides 4 times
the stability than
the standard
