The Softcap Headgear is a reusable headstrap designed for use with nasal and full face CPAP masks. The headgear comes with a Single Quick Clip, to make getting in and out easy. This strap headgear is a lasting product. The elastic is fairly strong and is therefore not suggested with very soft cushion masks like the Contour Deluxe and Comfort Classic. Use the Deluxe Headgear for these. This headgear is best used with the:
Profile Lite Nasal CPAP Mask

"I've been using this type of headgear for 3 years now. It is a good choice if you have to quite a bit of force to keep your full face mask on at higher pressures (20). It's very comfortable and durable. The velcro tabs are much better at staying put than the ones that came with my Fisher-Paykel mask. I couldn't be happier!"

"I had to modify the straps on the head ear to fit the mask I am using. Otherwise, I am very satisfied."

Softcap Headgear, blue non-mesh
Carmelita P, GU – September 30, 2010
"This product was exactly what I was looking for. Every other place had only white or did not sell this type. It was mostly just the strap gear. I really am pleased with the purchase."
Most comfortable headgear
Joshua C, Homer, NY – October 16, 2009
"This is the most comfortable headgear I've used yet. I use the FlexFit HC452 full face mask. The headgear that came with it is terrible. I have been using the headgear from my old ultra mirage FFM. This Softcap headgear from Philips Respironics tops them all. Very comfortable. The straps are a bit too wide for the connectors on my mask but I make do by just jamming it through them. The staps scrunch up a bit at the connectors but I don't notice."
