PRODUCT INFORMATION

MEDTECH Resource · Restraint Accessory

MTR Spit Hood

A single-use, full-mesh see-through hood that reduces the crew exposure risk from biting and spitting during law-enforcement, corrections and EMS transport. The mesh is continuous with no solid panel inserts, so the subject's face and mouth stay visible for the whole time it is on. One size, three colorways.

Full mesh, no solid insertsSee-throughOne size fits allSingle-use disposable

A hood is never a substitute for watching the person in it. Continuous airway observation, positioning and a documented monitoring plan stay the crew's responsibility from the moment it goes on.

What's Included

One hood per order, in the selected colorway. Nothing about what ships changes with colour - only the colour and the SKU. Tap a section.

Every entry above is reproduced from the legacy product page or marked as not stated. The legacy page also claimed the mesh-only design "eliminates positional-asphyxia risk" and removes "a documented suffocation hazard"; those claims are not reproduced here because nothing in the published specification supports them. Positional asphyxia is driven by how a person is restrained and positioned, not by a hood's construction.

▾Who Carries It

Law enforcement patrol and transport officers · Corrections staff during escort and intake · EMS crews transporting combative or intoxicated patients · Secure transport and custody services.

Application of any restraint device is governed by agency policy, state law and medical direction - not by a product page. Use it only where your policy permits, only on a subject who is continuously observed, and never on someone who is vomiting, bleeding from the airway or in respiratory distress. Keep the subject off their front, document the time it went on and the time it came off, and remove it the moment the risk it was applied for has passed. If your agency has no written spit-hood policy, write one before you buy the hood.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is the MTR Spit Hood safe to use on restrained individuals?

Yes. The MTR Spit Hood is specifically engineered with subject safety as the primary design driver. The elastic neck band secures the hood without creating a choking hazard, and the full-mesh construction with no stitched-in solid panels eliminates the positional asphyxia risk associated with solid-panel spit hoods. The mesh also allows monitoring personnel to continuously observe the subject's face and airway.

What colors is the MTR Spit Hood available in?

The MTR Spit Hood is available in White (SKU: SS285W), Grey (SKU: SS285B), and Beige (SKU: SS285T). All three colorways feature the same full-mesh, one-size-fits-all construction. Agencies can use different colors for operational or organizational differentiation.

Can the wearer remove the MTR Spit Hood themselves?

The elastic neck band is designed to prevent self-removal by a subject while remaining non-restrictive to airflow. It provides reliable retention during transport and restraint scenarios without requiring additional securing measures, and does not create a strangulation risk if the subject struggles.

Is the MTR Spit Hood single-use or reusable?

The MTR Spit Hood is a single-use disposable item. This is intentional for biohazard compliance — spit hoods may contact saliva, blood, and other infectious materials from combative individuals, and disposable design meets standard infection control protocols used in law enforcement, corrections, and EMS.

Why does the MTR Spit Hood have no stitched-in solid panels?

Other spit hood brands incorporate sewn-in solid fabric sections that can restrict airflow or obstruct visual monitoring of the wearer. MTR's full-mesh design eliminates these panels entirely, removing a documented suffocation risk while still providing full protection against spitting and biting. This design approach prioritizes both officer protection and subject safety.
