MTR Spit Hood
See-through full-mesh restraint hood — prevents biting and spitting during LE, corrections, and EMS transport. No solid inserts.
What is the MTR Spit Hood? A see-through mesh restraint hood that prevents biting and spitting by combative or intoxicated individuals during law-enforcement, corrections, or EMS transport. It uses a secure elastic neck band, full-mesh see-through construction, and a one-size-fits-all design, available in White, Grey, and Beige. No solid-panel inserts — eliminating the positional-asphyxia risk associated with inferior designs.

Product Overview
The MTR Spit Hood addresses one of the most common exposure risks in law enforcement and EMS: saliva-borne transmission from combative individuals. It slips easily over the subject’s head and is secured by an elastic neck band that prevents self-removal while remaining explicitly non-choking — the band does not create strangulation risk if a subject struggles or is placed on their side.
Unlike designs that incorporate stitched-in solid fabric panels — which can restrict airflow or obstruct monitoring — the MTR Spit Hood uses 100% mesh construction. That provides full visibility of the wearer’s face and mouth, letting officers and medics continuously monitor for respiratory distress, vomiting risk, or medical deterioration during transport. There are no stitched-in solid pieces, removing a documented suffocation hazard seen in other designs.
Each hood is a single-use disposable item suited to standard biohazard protocols. The three colorways — White, Grey, and Beige — let agencies color-code or match equipment aesthetics. The MTR Spit Hood is trusted by corrections facilities, law-enforcement agencies, and EMS services for its combination of reliable retention, crew safety, and subject dignity.
