Honeywell North FS03-H5 Uvex Black Metal Face Shield

Honeywell FS03-H5 UVEX by Honeywell North FS03-H5 Black Metal F Face Shield Review

The Honeywell FS03-H5 is an ANSI Z87.1-compliant safety face shield designed for general manufacturing, maintenance, and industrial operations. Built with optical-grade lens material, it provides full-face coverage from brow to below the chin — protecting the face, cheeks, and jaw from hazards that safety glasses and goggles cannot address alone. Package Dimensions: 3.302 cms (L) x 17.526 cms (W) x 36.068 cms (H).

Construction and Materials

The lens window is constructed from optical-grade hard-coated material for impact resistance and surface durability. Product Type: Tools. The lens window extends coverage across the full frontal face profile with side geometry providing lateral protection. Construction meets ANSI Z87.1 basic-impact requirements for general industrial use.

Compliance and Ratings

Rated to ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA 1910.133 for impact and particle hazard environments. ANSI/ISEA Z87.1 governs occupational eye and face protective devices; OSHA 29 CFR 1910.133 mandates its use in workplaces with documented eye and face hazards. Face shields should be used as part of a layered protection strategy per the OSHA PPE hierarchy. Package Quantity: 1.

Performance

In manufacturing and maintenance environments, face shield use is indicated wherever projectile, splash, or particle hazards exist beyond what safety glasses alone addresses. Country Of Origin: Mexico. Maintaining lens cleanliness and replacing lenses when scratched preserves visibility quality for precision work.

Strengths

• Hard-coated lens provides ANSI Z87.1-rated impact protection for safety applications
• Optical-grade lens maintains clarity without distortion at working distances
• Compatible with standard face shield headgear assemblies
• Adjustable headgear fits most adult head sizes
• Full-face coverage from brow to chin protects areas beyond eyewear reach
• Full-face coverage from brow to chin provides protection not achievable with safety glasses alone

Limitations

• Face shields do not seal the eye surround — safety glasses or safety goggles must be worn underneath in chemical splash and grinding environments per OSHA 1910.133
• Lens scratching from abrasive contact degrades clarity over time; replacement lenses should be sourced when transmission quality decreases
• One-size-fits-most headgear may not accommodate all head sizes or hard hat platforms; verify compatibility before crew-scale procurement

Recommended Use Cases

Manufacturing assembly; maintenance and repair; construction; food service (splash); healthcare (droplet barrier); general workplaces with documented projectile or splash hazards. Appropriate for any OSHA-regulated workplace where face and eye hazard assessments document a risk requiring face shield-level protection.

Verdict

The Honeywell FS03-H5 face shield delivers ANSI Z87.1-compliant protection for safety applications in a hard-coated construction suited for industrial environments. Buyers should verify headgear compatibility and application requirements before crew-scale procurement.
