Abstract

A disposable liner to be placed inside a hard hat, or similar protective head covering, so as to be in direct contact with a wearer's forehead. The liner is formed of an absorbent material such as terry cloth which has a pressure sensitive adhesive on one side thereof. The adhesive removeably secures the liner to the normal forehead contacting flap of the hard hat. The liner absorbs sweat, cushions from minor protrusions, and insulates from cold temperatures.
