Quick answer: This is the genuine ResMed non-magnetic replacement headgear for the AirFit F20 (and AirTouch F20) full face mask — the SoftEdge™ strap system with non-magnetic clips, for people who must avoid magnets. It holds the mask securely in position, with rolled-edge fabric designed to be gentle on the skin during long-term wear. Use it with the non-magnetic F20 frame. Mask frame and cushion not included.
⚠️ Non-magnetic version: This headgear has non-magnetic clips, for use with a non-magnetic F20 frame. It's the option for people for whom magnets are contraindicated.

Mask frame, cushion, and elbow not included.
About this part
Headgear holds the mask at a consistent position and tension — a stable position is what keeps a full face mask sealing. The F20 uses SoftEdge™ headgear with rolled-edge fabric straps, chosen for long-wear comfort: the softer edges reduce the pressure lines and skin irritation that come with wearing a mask through the night.
This is the non-magnetic headgear — its lower clips attach without magnets, for use with the non-magnetic F20 frame. It exists for safety: magnets are contraindicated for some people, including those with certain metallic implants (e.g. aneurysm clips), metallic eye fragments, or electronic implanted devices. The non-magnetic headgear lets those users have the F20 without magnets in the design.
Straps lose their elasticity with washing and daily wear; the usual sign it needs replacing is tightening the straps more and more to hold the same seal. Fresh headgear restores the original fit at normal tension.
Important: non-magnetic — check your setup
- This headgear has non-magnetic clips and pairs with the non-magnetic F20 frame.
- The magnetic F20 uses different (magnetic) headgear/clips — the two are not interchangeable.
- If magnets are contraindicated for you or anyone in close contact with your mask, use the non-magnetic frame and this non-magnetic headgear, and follow the magnet contraindications in the mask's user guide.
- Consult your physician if you're unsure whether magnets are a concern for you.

Care & replacement
Hand wash the headgear weekly in warm water with a mild detergent, rinse thoroughly, and air dry away from direct sunlight — detergent residue and heat both shorten strap life. Replace it roughly every 6 months, or sooner if the straps are stretched, frayed, or no longer hold their adjustment.
