Eye Shields for Bench and Pedestal Grinders

Bend-and-Stay Positioning Arms

Stronger and with greater load capacities than gooseneck-style positioning arms, these arms keep their shape even when moving or when exposed to vibration. They’re often used in robotics and conveyor applications when frequent repositioning isn’t required.

Chip-Guard Lids for Drums and Waste Containers

Convert drums and waste containers into parts cleaning workstations—these lids fit most 55-gal. drums and 44- and 55-gal. waste containers.

Machine Guard Safety Gauges

Verify machine guard openings are sized to prevent hands and fingers from reaching hazards. These gauges check whether a machine guard complies withOSHA, CSA, or ANSI requirements.
