Comfortable and Secure Headgear Replacement

The ResMed AirFit™ N20 / AirTouch™ N20 Headgear Strap is designed to restore the comfort, stability, and performance of your nasal CPAP mask system. Compatible with both AirFit™ N20 and AirTouch™ N20 masks, this replacement headgear helps maintain proper mask positioning and a reliable seal throughout the night.
Headgear doesn't fail suddenly — it relaxes gradually, and most people compensate by tightening the straps a little at a time without noticing. Six months on, the mask is being pressed into the face rather than resting against it, which is a common cause of both pressure marks and new leaks. Replacing worn or stretched headgear often restores a comfortable seal that a new cushion alone could not.
Made from soft, breathable, flexible fabric, the headgear strap provides a comfortable fit without excessive pressure. The adjustable straps let you customise the fit to your own preferences, helping maintain stability across a variety of sleeping positions, and the lightweight construction supports comfortable nightly use. Installation and removal are quick and tool-free, so replacing your existing headgear takes moments.

The most common mistake when fitting new headgear is adjusting it to match the tightness of the old set. Your old straps had stretched, so copying that tension leaves the new headgear far too tight from the very first night — which brings back the pressure marks you were trying to solve.
Headgear rarely wears out alone. If yours has stretched, these parts are usually due at the same time.
Regular cleaning helps maintain hygiene and keeps the fabric performing comfortably night after night.
Stretched-out headgear is an easy thing to overlook, but it's one of the most common reasons a once-reliable mask starts to leak or shift overnight. As a genuine ResMed component, this strap is built to the exact fit and adjustment range of your AirFit N20 or AirTouch N20 mask, restoring stable positioning without the cost of replacing the whole mask system. A quick, tool-free swap is often all it takes to feel the difference again.
This headgear strap is a component of a medical device intended for use as part of a complete, compatible AirFit N20 or AirTouch N20 mask system used for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnoea. This listing includes the headgear strap only — the mask frame, cushion, elbow connector, short tube, and magnetic clips are not included and are sold separately.
Adjust the straps evenly and avoid overtightening, as this can cause pressure marks or reduce seal quality rather than improve it. If you notice persistent leaks, skin irritation, or the headgear no longer holding its adjustment after fitting, discontinue use and consult your CPAP provider or healthcare professional.

Q: Is this headgear compatible with both the AirFit™ N20 and AirTouch™ N20 masks?
A: Yes. This replacement headgear is designed specifically for both the ResMed AirFit™ N20 and AirTouch™ N20 nasal CPAP mask systems, providing the same secure fit and comfortable support.
Q: Does this product include the mask or cushion?
A: No. This listing includes the replacement headgear strap only. The mask frame, cushion, elbow connector, short tube, magnetic clips, and CPAP machine are not included.
Q: How often should I replace my AirFit™ N20 / AirTouch™ N20 headgear?
A: Headgear should be replaced when it becomes stretched, frayed, or no longer maintains a secure fit. With regular nightly use, many CPAP users replace their headgear approximately every 6 months, depending on wear and cleaning routine.
Q: How do I clean the replacement headgear?
A: Hand wash the headgear weekly using warm water and a mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly, gently squeeze out excess water without twisting, and allow it to air dry away from direct sunlight. Avoid machine washing, tumble drying, or ironing, as these may damage the fabric and elastic.
