Editorial assessment by the WC Safety Editorial Team, based on published DEWALT specifications and category fit. We did not laboratory-test this product.
The DEWALT Chisel (DPG110) is a trim-fit half-frame safety glass rated ANSI Z87.1 with 99.9% UV protection. Its half-frame construction removes the lower lens rim for a lighter feel and a wider downward field of view — useful when you're constantly referencing hand work below the frame line — and the compact, low-profile shape pairs neatly under a face shield. Anti-slip rubber temples and unisex sizing round it out, in Clear and Smoke.

Why the DEWALT Chisel suits detail and under-shield work
Two things set the Chisel apart from a standard frame: the half-frame drops the lower lens rim so nothing blocks your downward view of hand work, and the low-profile shape tucks under a face shield without a fight. For detail work, bench work, and any task where you're also wearing a shield, that combination is the point — a clean sightline down and a comfortable base layer. Our full DEWALT Chisel review rates it 4.3/5, and the safety glasses buyer's guide covers frame-style tradeoffs.
Safety first: the Chisel is impact-and-debris protection, not a sealed goggle — it is not rated against a chemical splash hazard, fine airborne dust, or vapor, which require sealed goggles or a face shield per your hazard assessment. The half-frame removes the lower rim, not lens coverage, so protection holds; but for tasks that generate splash or heavy debris, add the face shield it's designed to layer under.

What the listing documents
From the published specs: ANSI Z87.1 certification with 99.9% UV protection; a trim-fit half-frame polycarbonate design that removes the lower lens rim for a wider downward field of view; anti-slip rubber temples and unisex sizing; two tints — Clear and Smoke; base model DPG110-1D. As dewalt safety glasses go, the Chisel is the streamlined member — a genuine half frame safety glasses build and a true low profile safety glasses pick that layers under a shield.
Choosing your Chisel variant
Two focused tints: Clear from the clear-lens collection for indoor and low-light work, and Smoke for bright outdoor daylight — the clear-vs-smoke lens guide settles the call. The Chisel has no anti-fog variant, so humid work is better served by the anti-fog guide and anti-fog collection, and shifting light by an indoor/outdoor lens.
Where the Chisel sits in the DEWALT line
The DEWALT line splits by frame style: this Chisel is the trim half-frame that layers under a shield, the Crosscut is the translucent half-frame with open peripheral vision, the Radius is the compact full-lens entry frame, and the Contractor Pro carries the widest tints.

Where it fits by job and crew orders
The under-shield fit and downward sightline suit bench, detail, and grinding work — the construction, manufacturing, and mechanics guides rank frames by task, and smaller-faced wearers should check the small-face guide and women's fit guide. Where the hazard exceeds impact — splash, dust, vapor — step to a sealed goggle from the safety goggles collection or the broader eye protection collection.
