Roobuck’s Cap Lamp
Bracket is Highly Adjustable
)
Australia-based Roobuck’s Cap Lamp
Bracket is designed to convert a fixedmount
cap lamp into an adjustable
mount, allowing wearers to move the
lamp beam freely while remaining on the
hat. On fixed-mount cap lamps, the
beam angle is permanent because neither
the bracket on the helmet nor the
clip on the headpiece has a mechanism
to adjust the angle. With the Roobuck
Cap Lamp Bracket installed, miners no
longer have to remove the cap lamp from
their hard hat to shine a beam in a particular
direction. Instead, they can simply
rotate the lamp up or down to illuminate
anything from ground level to overhead.
According to the company, the
bracket extends out far enough to allow
the lamp to shine down vertically without
obstruction from the visor rim. When not
needed, the bracket folds up and functions
like a normal cap lamp bracket,
ready to be extended when a different
beam angle is required. Roobuck offers a
free on-site trial (limited to three devices
per mine) available by completing a form
on the company’s website.
