About the Headgear

The Swift FX headgear features ResMed's minimalist, flexible strap design that wraps comfortably around the back of the head with simple adjustment points. A well-fitted headgear is essential for maintaining the right mask pressure and minimising air leaks — and worn or stretched elastic is one of the most common reasons a previously well-fitting mask starts to leak. Replacing the headgear assembly restores that secure hold without needing to replace the entire mask system.

Care & Cleaning

Hand wash weekly in warm water using a mild liquid soap. Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap residue. Avoid bleach, chlorine, alcohol, and scented, moisturising, or antibacterial soaps, as these can degrade the materials over time. Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Gently squeeze out excess water — do not wring — and air dry away from direct sunlight. Always refer to the ResMed user guide for full care instructions specific to your mask.

When to Replace

Replace your Swift FX headgear approximately every 12 months as part of your regular CPAP maintenance routine, or sooner if you notice any of the following: straps have stretched out or no longer hold tension; visible fraying, pilling, or material breakdown; the mask has become harder to fit or is no longer maintaining a good seal; or persistent discolouration, staining, or odour that doesn't wash out. Headgear is a normal wear-and-tear consumable, and timely replacement makes a real difference to therapy comfort and effectiveness.
