Chinstrap

[drw513]

I have a question for everyone. I just started the academy and when they inspected our turnout gear they found a problem with my helmet. The chinstrap was damaged so it has to be replaced. I have a Chieftain Model 911 helmet and I've looked online to find a replacement for this particular model but haven't been able to. I was wondering if anyone knew if a chinstrap from a different manufacturer (Bullard, Phenix, Cairns, etc.) would be compatible with my helmet. They few I'm looking at are:

If anyone has any advice or information on what kind I should get it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
