Adult Size Raptor Rugby Neoprene Headband/Ear Protector/Headguard/Scrum Cap

Product Information

There are several reasons rugby players do not wear helmets. This is mainly because there are many disadvantages to wearing them, as well as the fact that they are illegal in professional, school rugby and even some amateur rugby games. The biggest challenge is if the eardrum has been recently damaged because of a rugby collision. It typically takes between 6 weeks and 6 months for the body to heal itself from the injury.

Attenuated: ear PPE that facilitates the sound transmittance of high frequencies; useful for musicians Ear protection is an article of personal protective equipment (PPE) that safeguards the wearer against hearing damage from overexposure to loud environments, and also prevents the ingress of debris and water into the ear canal. Earplugs and earmuffs are the most common types of ear protection. If these are reasons putting you off, look for a cap that allows your head and ears to breathe while still protecting them. Maxx Earguards are made from a neoprene, that comes in two parts which works as three way system for closure for a flexible and snug fit. The earguard requires you to feed the thinner inner section into the larger and velcro down, there is also further adjustability with the wide comfortable strap that goes under your chin.

Although originally designed for forwards they are now worn by players of all positions, even those who do not play in the scrum. The biggest danger to your ears while playing rugby is the potential for damage caused by loud noises, such as collisions with other players.One of the down sides often questioned when wearing a scrum cap is that you already get very warm playing rugby so to wear headgear you'd increase heat in your head and how uncomfortable it is. Also some rugby players feel they cannot hear as well and therefore do not wear anything on their head.

Ear protection devices can be categorized as plug type or earmuff-type. Earplugs are small components made of silicone, polyvinyl chloride, or polyurethane that fit into the recesses of the ear canal and outer ear; they are sometimes tethered. Earmuffs utilize cushioned pads lined with sound absorbing material to cover the entire ear. Earmuff pads are usually attached with a metal or thermoplastic headband, or are integrated into a hardhat or helmet. Earmuffs offer better protection than earplugs and can also provide thermal insulation, but are larger and more expensive. Earplugs can be worn inside earmuffs for optimal protection.Prevents an infection of the inner ear that can cause other complications and certain kinds of hearing loss. So, let’s take a look at this tape wearing in a bit more detail. I’m going to cover which players wear tape on which body part. What sort of tape they puse. How they apply it, and what protection it’s actually providing. Why do rugby players wear tape around their heads?

In a similar manner you could use a rugby headband, however there is no guarantee this is going to stay in place. Cauliflower ear is a traumatic injury that occurs when any sort of external force makes its way into your ear canal. You don’t want to be ostracized by your teammates because your hearing is damaged and you wear obvious ear protection!Ear plugs that are made from rubber can also be worn. This is an ideal type of ear protection for rugby as the plugs work similarly to a head guard or tape, but they can be much more comfortable to wear.
