Key Features
and/or Benefits
The Soft Edge Headgear is designed to cradle the crown of the head allowing it to conform to 95% of the global population. It provides a stable yet comfortable fit, eliminating the need for multiple sizes.
Durable Frame flexible Forehead support is set in the optimum position to eliminate need for vertical adjustment, and self adjusts automatically during fitting, combined with the Spring Air Cushion makes this mask simple to fit and achieve seal.
The Frame has been crafted to look simple yet elegant, is remarkably durable and will stand a person's full body weight without shattering. In addition, the frame does not require connecting headgear buckles which reduces visual bulk.
Spring Air cushions are designed to look small over the nose yet retain a remarkable amount of room inside. This accommodates the large fit range it is intended for.
To achieve this incredible reduction in parts, innovative manufacturing technologies and new custom engineered materials were developed.
In areas traditionally requiring multiple parts, the ResMed design team challenged these legacies pushing the boundaries of materials properties and manufacturing processing capabilities.
The Mirage FX is designed to undertake this unusual circumstance with ease and retain comfort.
The Spring Air cushion with integrated vent only weighs 25grams. The durable frame has a light weight, minimalist design with a flexible forehead support that reacts immediately when the mask is tensioned up. It cleverly utilises the comfortable breathable fabric of the headgear reducing face marking.

The Spring Air cushion has clearly visible retaining lugs for simple insertion into the frame.
The durable frame, with quick-fit hooks, makes headgear assembly and removal a breeze.
Spring-to-life headgear enables the users to establish orientation with ease. Exclusion of clips simplifies overall design.
The flexible forehead support, with auto-set feature, eliminates the need for additional adjustment points.
