Abstract: A personal protection suit has a selectively sealable hood (1) for protection against CBRN threats. In one series of embodiments, the hood (1) is separable from a jacket body (5) by a releasable attachment means (11), and has a mask hood seal (2) for sealing with a mask. In one series of embodiments the hood (1A) has a deployable face mask (60) stored within the hood (1A). The hood (1) can be removed without breaking the seal between the mask and mask hood seal (2) to minimise contamination during donning and doffing.

Abstract: An apparatus for mounting an object to a ferromagnetic surface comprising an upper support portion adapted to retain the object with a lower magnetic base to the support portion that is attractable to the ferromagnetic surface. A friction layer below the magnetic base separates the magnetic base from direct contact with the ferromagnetic surface whereby the magnetic base acts to releasably retain the support portion on the ferromagnetic surface and the friction layer acts to prevent slippage and provides cushioning. The mounting bracket is particularly suited to anchoring hoses, lines or cables to heavy equipment. The mounting bracket also useful for mounting equipment such as fire extinguishers or other safety equipment to a mounting location in a vehicle. Vehicle emergency lights or brake lights attached to the mounting bracket are readily installable on the exterior of a vehicle at any desired location and removable without damaging the vehicle finish.
