The Radians CSE40BX delivers professional-grade hearing protection with a tactical low-profile design that won't interfere with weapon shouldering or helmet compatibility. This passive hearing protection system provides 21 dB Noise Reduction Rating while maintaining situational awareness through its carefully engineered acoustic properties.
What Makes This Different
The CSE40BX features an ultra-low profile cup design that sits closer to the head than standard hearing protection, eliminating the interference common with traditional bulky muffs. The polymer construction reduces weight by 15% compared to steel-reinforced alternatives while maintaining structural integrity under field conditions. Advanced acoustic foam provides consistent noise reduction across all frequency ranges, particularly effective at dampening the sharp crack of rifle fire.
Key Features
- 21 dB Noise Reduction Rating certified to ANSI S3.19 standards
- Low-profile polymer cups allow proper rifle stock positioning
- Adjustable padded headband accommodates head sizes 6.5" to 8.25"
- Soft PVC ear cushions create comfortable seal for extended wear
- Lightweight polymer construction weighs only 8.2 ounces
- Foldable design for compact storage and transport
- Compatible with most tactical helmets and communication systems
Field testing demonstrates consistent performance across temperature ranges from -10°F to 120°F without seal degradation or structural failure. The low-profile design proves particularly valuable for precision rifle work, tactical training, and competitive shooting where proper cheek weld is critical. Indoor range use benefits from the balanced frequency response that reduces both impact noise and ambient sound levels.
