Constructed from impact-resistant polycarbonate, it provides full-face coverage from brow to below the chin — protecting the face, cheeks, and jaw from hazards that \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/safety-glasses\" style=\"color:#4fc3f7\"\u003esafety glasses\u003c\/a\u003e and goggles cannot address alone. Material: The premium 9.9 Ca\/cm2 molded polycarbonate window curves naturally to fit facial contours ensuring impact resistance \u0026amp; reliable protection from splashes, particles \u0026amp; flying debris; Includes a universal slot adapter to fit most slotted hard hats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eConstruction and Materials\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe lens window is constructed from injection-molded polycarbonate, providing high impact resistance that exceeds acetate in ANSI Z87.1 high-impact testing, with strong resistance to UV-induced surface crazing. The ratchet headgear mechanism enables tool-free size adjustment across adult head sizes. Assembly: This large, high impact polycarbonate crown and chin guard combo provides extra head and neck protection; Specially formulated PC shield incorporates a light green tint that allows 55% light transmittance for true color optics. The lens window extends coverage across the full frontal face profile with side geometry providing lateral protection. Construction meets or exceeds ANSI Z87.1 high-velocity impact requirements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompliance and Ratings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRated to ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA 1910.133 for eye and face protection in welding and thermal cutting operations. 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. Additional ANSI Z49.1 compliance is required for welding; the lens shade must match the welding process and amperage per that standard.
