HARD HAT FACE SHIELDS

Universal sizing fits on the brim of most hard hats and accommodates a variety of face shields.  Face shields protect your face from many different hazards in the work place. Constructed from lightweight polycarbonate and aluminum for strength and durability.  We offer face shields from Pyramex and SaS Safety Corp.  Protect your face from workplace hazards today.

Face shields are intended to protect the entire face, or portions thereof, from impact hazards such as flying fragments, objects, large chips, and particles. When worn alone, face shields do not protect employees from impact hazards. Use face shields in combination with safety spectacles or goggles for additional protection.

The face shield windows extend from the brow to below the chin and across the entire width of the face. Hard hat face shields are available in lift-front designs which may be raised up when needed or left in the lowered position.  We offer face shields made from polycarbonate.  A very strong, durable material designed to withstand impact flying objects such as large chips, fragments, particles, sand, and dirt.  All of our face shields meet ANSI Z87.1 standards for impact resistance.  Face shields are also available in varying degrees or levels of thickness. Theses levels should correspond with specific tasks.

Hard hat face shields are also used in medical situations when blood-borne pathogens put health care workers at risk. Law enforcement officers, military personnel, fumigators and search-and-rescue teams also use face shields as personal protective equipment.

OSHA requires employers to provide hard hat face shields to employees who are at risk of face or eye damage during their work duties.  Face shields must be comfortable and able to be cleaned and disinfected easily.  They must also be durable and well maintained.  If a face shield requires tinting for a specific task, the employer should get a face shield with the darkest tint available and decrease the shading gradually until desired tinting is achieved with risk of vision impairment.
