BLACKHAWK Lightweight Nomex Balaclava - 18" Length, Black (Model 333005BK)

The BLACKHAWK Lightweight Nomex Balaclava is a flash- and flame-resistant head covering built for shooters, tactical operators, and outdoor professionals who need protective headwear without the bulk. At 18 inches long, it covers your head and neck—the areas most exposed when you're wearing a helmet or running gear. The Nomex construction gives you genuine fire protection in a lighter package than heavier alternatives, so you're not trading comfort for safety.

This balaclava is engineered with internal flat-seam stitching, a detail that matters when you're wearing it under a combat helmet or ballistic cap for hours. Flat seams sit flush against your skin and won't bunch up or dig in where the balaclava meets your helmet suspension system. That thoughtful construction keeps you focused on the task, not adjusting your gear every five minutes.

Whether you're training at the range, operating in a tactical environment, or simply want a dependable layer that handles flash and flame exposure, the BLACKHAWK Lightweight Nomex delivers protection and wearability. The black colorway works across professional, training, and field use cases. This is genuine functional gear—no hype, just a balaclava that does what it's supposed to do without getting in your way.
