ResMed AirFit N20 Replacement Headgear — Overview
The ResMed AirFit N20 Replacement Headgear is the genuine plush fabric headgear sold separately for the AirFit N20 and AirTouch N20 nasal masks. Engineered for extra softness and stability, the N20 headgear features rolled-edge fabric straps that are gentle against the skin and magnetic lower clips that guide the headgear into the mask frame for fast, effortless nightly connection and removal with a simple twist.
The N20 headgear is designed to be worn loosely — particularly important for AirTouch N20 users, where the UltraSoft memory foam cushion needs to adapt to facial contours without being compressed by over-tight straps. Worn correctly, the headgear provides stability and an effective seal without pressure. Replace every 6 months or when the fabric straps lose elasticity and can no longer hold the mask in position without over-tightening.

When to Replace Your N20 Headgear
- The fabric straps feel stretched and no longer hold the mask firmly in position
- You find yourself over-tightening to maintain a seal — which compresses the cushion and reduces comfort
- The fabric shows visible wear, fraying, or surface breakdown
- The magnetic clips have weakened and no longer connect securely
- It has been 6 months or more since the last headgear replacement
⚠️ Magnetic clips — implant notice: The N20 headgear uses magnetic lower-strap clips. Patients with pacemakers, cochlear implants, or other active medical implants should consult their physician before use. For a nasal mask without magnetic components, consider the AirFit N30i or DreamWear Nasal.
🧸 AirTouch N20 users — wear loosely: The N20 headgear should always be worn loosely, especially with the AirTouch N20 memory foam cushion. Over-tightening compresses the foam and prevents it from conforming to facial contours — reducing both comfort and seal quality. If you experience leaks, reposition the mask rather than tightening the headgear.
🧼 Headgear care: Hand wash weekly with mild soap and warm water — do not machine wash or tumble dry. Heat from washing machines and dryers damages elastic fibres and accelerates stretch. Lay flat to air dry. Regular washing removes the skin oils and sweat that degrade elasticity over time.

Common Questions
Why should the N20 headgear be worn loosely?
The N20 headgear is designed to position the cushion correctly against the face — the cushion itself creates the seal through its shape and flexibility, not through headgear pressure. Over-tightening pushes the cushion harder into the face than intended, causing discomfort, red marks, and (for AirTouch N20 foam users) compression of the foam that prevents it from conforming to facial contours. If you experience leaks, try repositioning the mask or checking cushion alignment rather than tightening the headgear.
Is the Standard size right for me?
Standard headgear fits most patients and is the size included with new AirFit N20 and AirTouch N20 masks. Small is for patients with a smaller head circumference who find Standard too loose. Large is for patients with a larger head circumference who find Standard too tight. If you received Standard headgear with your mask and it fitted correctly, order Standard.
Can I machine wash the N20 headgear?
No — do not machine wash or tumble dry. Heat damages the elastic fibres and significantly accelerates stretch, reducing headgear life. Hand wash weekly with mild soap and warm water and lay flat to air dry. Proper care extends headgear life toward the 6-month replacement mark.
