It is machine washable, lightweight and foldable.

Who the workband 2 hard hat strap is for

Everyday wear with or without head protection, and shared fleets that need washable mounts.

• Everyday Navigator use
• Use under hard hats or bump caps
• Shared fleets
• Replacement strap

Choosing the right accessories

For the rugged headsets (Navigator 520 and Z1), choose a mount that matches your site rules: brand-specific hard hat clips give the firmest fit on MSA, Honeywell, Petzl, 3M and Japanese helmets; the universal hard hat band fits most other front-brim hard hats; the Workband 2, Tri-Band Strap and Overhead Band are for use without a hard hat or under a bump cap; and the ball cap suits outdoor, light-duty work.

For power, the Navigator 520 uses hot-swappable 2600 mAh batteries: pair spares with the single-bay charger and a Quick Charge 3.0 USB-A adapter. The lightweight headband model (Arc 3) charges over USB-C or on its desk/wall charging station, powered by a USB-C Power Delivery adapter.

For connectivity and sensing, the Mini LTE Modem adds 4G where there is no Wi-Fi, and the thermal camera module adds FLIR thermal imaging to the Navigator 520. Remember that only certified accessories keep the Navigator Z1 intrinsically safe.

Setup and use

1. Attach the headset to the Workband.
2. Adjust the Velcro back.
3. Wear alone or under a hard hat or bump cap.

Care and maintenance

Machine wash as needed, let it dry completely before use, and replace it when the Velcro wears.

Tri-Band head strap: overview

This head strap is a three-point elastic Tri-Band strap that replaces the standard overhead strap on the rugged assisted reality headset (RealWear Navigator 520 and Navigator Z1).

Three anchor points distribute the headset's weight more evenly, reducing fatigue during extended use and giving a more secure fit across a wider range of head sizes.

Unlike the Workband, which runs only around the sides, the Tri-Band has straps on both sides and one over the top, giving more adjustability and good positioning over many helmet and cap shapes.

Who the tri-band head strap is for

Users wearing the headset for hours at a time who want a more secure, evenly balanced fit.

• Long shifts
• Very active work
• Workers who find side-only bands loose
• Use with caps and helmets
• Shared fleets

Features in detail

Three-point support

Spreads weight evenly.

Less fatigue

For extended use.

Secure fit

Wide range of head sizes.

Top strap

Extra stability over the head.

Elastic

Comfortable and adjustable.

Compatibility

Compatible with the RealWear Navigator 520 and Navigator Z1.

Choosing the right accessories

For the rugged headsets (Navigator 520 and Z1), choose a mount that matches your site rules: brand-specific hard hat clips give the firmest fit on MSA, Honeywell, Petzl, 3M and Japanese helmets; the universal hard hat band fits most other front-brim hard hats; the Workband 2, Tri-Band Strap and Overhead Band are for use without a hard hat or under a bump cap; and the ball cap suits outdoor, light-duty work.

For power, the Navigator 520 uses hot-swappable 2600 mAh batteries: pair spares with the single-bay charger and a Quick Charge 3.0 USB-A adapter. The lightweight headband model (Arc 3) charges over USB-C or on its desk/wall charging station, powered by a USB-C Power Delivery adapter.

For connectivity and sensing, the Mini LTE Modem adds 4G where there is no Wi-Fi, and the thermal camera module adds FLIR thermal imaging to the Navigator 520. Remember that only certified accessories keep the Navigator Z1 intrinsically safe.

Setup and use

1. Remove the current strap from the headset.
2. Attach the Tri-Band anchors.
3. Adjust the side and top straps for a secure fit.

Overhead headband: overview

This overhead headband mounts the rugged assisted reality headset (RealWear Navigator 520 or Navigator Z1) in a headphone-style form factor. At just 49 g it gives a secure fit with memory-foam pads and an adjustable slider.

Like the headband of premium headphones, it is natural to adjust, and simple sliders make it quick to hand the headset between workers.

It is one of the smallest head mounts, so it can be worn under a hard hat. It is very secure in normal use but can become less stable if the wearer often tilts their head beyond 90°.

Who the overhead headband is for

Workers who prefer a headphone feel or need to wear the headset under a hard hat.

• Workers who prefer a headphone-style fit
• Shared headsets
• Use under hard hats
• Office and light-industrial use
• Training

Headset padding 5-pack: overview

This headset padding 5-pack contains soft, breathable replacement padding inserts for the lightweight headband-style assisted reality headset (RealWear Arc 3). They distribute pressure evenly and keep a non-slip fit, even during movement or in high temperatures.

The fabric pads are direct replacements or extras for the original padding, so you can refresh worn pads whenever needed and keep shared headsets hygienic.

The black pads weigh about 100 g as a pack of five.

Who the headset padding 5-pack is for

Fleets with shared headsets or long shifts in warm environments.

• Companies sharing headsets across shifts
• Fleet managers keeping spares in stock
• Training centres with many users
• Maintenance and production teams
• IT teams preparing new deployments

Features in detail

Breathable fabric

Soft material stays comfortable in warm environments.

Even pressure

Designed to spread pressure across the head.

Non-slip fit

Keeps the headset in place during movement.

Five inserts

Spares for several users or long deployments.

Hygiene

Replace worn pads rather than the whole headset.

Compatibility

Compatible with the RealWear Arc 3.

Choosing the right accessories

For the rugged headsets (Navigator 520 and Z1), choose a mount that matches your site rules: brand-specific hard hat clips give the firmest fit on MSA, Honeywell, Petzl, 3M and Japanese helmets; the universal hard hat band fits most other front-brim hard hats; the Workband 2, Tri-Band Strap and Overhead Band are for use without a hard hat or under a bump cap; and the ball cap suits outdoor, light-duty work.

For power, the Navigator 520 uses hot-swappable 2600 mAh batteries: pair spares with the single-bay charger and a Quick Charge 3.0 USB-A adapter. The lightweight headband model (Arc 3) charges over USB-C or on its desk/wall charging station, powered by a USB-C Power Delivery adapter.

For connectivity and sensing, the Mini LTE Modem adds 4G where there is no Wi-Fi, and the thermal camera module adds FLIR thermal imaging to the Navigator 520. Remember that only certified accessories keep the Navigator Z1 intrinsically safe.

Setup and use

1. Remove the worn padding insert from the headband.
2. Press the new insert into place in the same position.
3. Check the fit before starting a shift.

Care and maintenance

Wipe it with a soft, slightly damp cloth, keep it away from solvents and excessive heat, and inspect it regularly for wear. Replace it as soon as it no longer holds or protects as it should.
