The VM 7500 is designed and engineered to create optimal visibility with a recessed cage area that improves peripheral vision and gives wider sight lines. Anatomically designed for optimal fit and performance with raised mold lines that reduce flat spots for superior puck deflection to lessen impacts. High impact shell design constructed in special high strength Lexan material that is custom engineered for greater impact resistance. The shell is engineered with precisely located ridge lines that add strength and reduce shell flex under high impacts. The jaw area is profiled with a flared lower short chin to give superior downward visibility. The chin design allows the mask to be tucked in to the chest to provide more protection and allows for added adjustment to the chin cup for a more secure fit. Air vent holes and face opening are designed to provide for maximum ventilation to reduce heat build up. The cage is constructed entirely of low luster stainless steel for added durability and reduced glare for optimal visibility. High density Vinyl nitrile foam liner provides durability and is low water absorbing to provide light weight and comfort. Available with straight bar cage and certified cat eye style cage.
