Protect your face from low-level arc flashes when a full hood is not necessary. These shields meet NFPA 70E standards for protection against electrical arc flashes for personal protective equipment (PPE) category 2. Choose shields that meet the arc rated PPE category required by your workplace.

The shields meet ANSI/ISEA Z87.1 basic impact standards when worn with safety glasses or goggles. The lens on these shields flips up, so you can keep your hard hat on during breaks from electrical work. All hard hats have a ratchet suspension that adjusts with an easy-turn knob.

Shields with a green lens have a light tint that absorbs visible light and blocks glare. They let through 55% of visible light. While the green tint reduces glare, it also distorts colors, which may limit your ability to distinguish them.

Shields with a bronze or gray lens allow all wavelengths of visible light to pass through without distorting colors. They’re ideal for electrical workers who work with colored wires or electrical tape.

Shields with a chin guard protect your face from below. Those with side guards extend protection on the sides.
