Arc-Flash-Protection Face Shields
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.

Arc-Flash-Protection Hoods
These hoods meet NFPA 70E standards for protection against electrical arc flashes for personal protection equipment (PPE) category 4. Check the PPE category and minimum arc rating provided for your workplace, and then select all required clothing and personal protective equipment to meet the minimum arc rating. Arc rating measures a garment’s ability to insulate the wearer from burns; the higher the arc rating, the greater the flame resistance. Each hood has a hard hat with adjustable headgear and a face shield with an antifog coating.
Optional fan (sold separately) mounts on your hood and pumps air inside using a fan motor. It operates on four AA batteries (not included).
Arc-Flash-Protection Clothing Kits
For protection from arc flash hazards, these kits include several of the safety items you may need. All items meet NFPA 70E for protection against flames and electrical arc flashes.
Choose clothing that meets the arc rated personal protective equipment (PPE) category required by your workplace. PPE Category 2 kits have the most common arc-flash-protection rating for industrial applications. Style A kits come with a hard hat, face shield, hood, and storage bag.
Style B kits come with a hard hat, face shield, hood, coveralls, and two storage bags.
When measuring chest size, measure around the fullest part of your chest. Take all measurements over any garments you expect to wear under the protective clothing.

Shield your eyes from dust and spray and protect your head from falling objects. These hard hats have a visor that slides inside their hard shell to prevent scratches when you’re not working. It also fits over glasses. Since they don’t have brims, these hard hats won’t limit your field of vision or keep you from getting close to your task.

Add a chin strap (sold separately) to your hard hat for a more secure fit when climbing, working upside down, or moving around.
