Type




   Type       
   Your choices are...
 
      
 
   Glasses
 
     Glasses are frames bearing lenses worn in front of the eyes for vision correction. Frames are commonly made from metal or plastic, and lenses from glass or a plastic like polycarbonate.
 
   Goggles
 
     Goggles are a form of protective eyewear that usually enclose or protect the eye socket area to prevent particulates, water, or chemicals from coming into contact with the eyes. They are often worn when using power tools such as drills or chainsaws, to prevent flying debris from damaging the eyes.
 
   Side Shields / Wraparound
 
     Side shields / wraparound glasses or spectacles are a type of eyewear that include peripheral devices that either attach to or are integrated into (via factory molding) the primary, forward-facing eyewear, and provide protection at the side of the eye sockets, closing off entry points for flying debris, liquids, or harmful light. 
 
   Specialty / Other
 
     Other head-protection type.

     Infrared / IR protective products offer safety from electromagnetic (heat) radiation with frequencies between 750 nm and 1 mm.
 
   Insulated
 
     Insulated protective products offer safety against temperature, such as extreme heat or cold, by providing a thermal boundary between the wearer and the harsh environment.
 
   Laser Protection
 
     Laser protection products offer safety from electromagnetic radiation emitted in a narrow, low-divergence beam, and having a narrow wavelength spectrum.
 
   Oil Resistant
 
     Oil resistant protective products offer a degree of safety from petroleum based liquids.
 
   Pressure (Atmosphere)
 
     Pressure (atmosphere) protective products offer safety from high or low pressure vacuum environments.
 
   Radiation / Nuclear
 
     Radiation / nuclear protective products offer a degree of safety from subatomic particles emitted by an atom as it changes from a higher energy state to a lower energy state.
 
   Smoke / Fumes
 
     Smoke / fume protective products offer safety from gaseous and particulate products of combustion. They are also used for protection against noxious, fume-emitting (low-vapor pressure) liquids, like distillates.
 
   Ultraviolet / UV
 
     Ultraviolet (UV) protective products offer safety from the harmful rays of the sun.
 
   Weather / Waterproof
 
     Weather / waterproof protective products keep the wearer and her/his protective equipment dry in wet environments.
 
   Welding
 
     Welding protective products are used for safety against sparks, arc-welding related UV light frequencies, and other harmful emissions resulting from use of welding equipment.
 
   X-Ray
 
     X-ray protective products are used for safety against electromagnetic radiation with wavelengths between 10 to 0.01 nanometers.
 
   Other
 
     Other unlisted application.
