Disposable Hoods

Breathable to keep you cool and comfortable, these hoods protect against dirt and grime. An elastic face opening keeps hair in and contaminants out.
Polypropylene offers economical protection in environments where abrasion resistance and liquid splashes are not a concern.
Tyvek polyethylene provides better tear and abrasion resistance than polypropylene. It holds up to occasional contact with nonhazardous liquids, such as water and paint spray. It is made of heat- and pressure-bonded fibers that form a barrier that's soft yet strong.
Kleenguard polypropylene is made of five layers of nonwoven fabric, so it is more abrasion resistant and harder to tear than Tyvek polyethylene. It holds up to occasional contact with nonhazardous liquids, such as water and paint spray. The material is antistatic, so it protects sensitive equipment from electrostatic discharge.
Shop Hoods


These hoods protect against paint and dust. Wear with protective eyewear.
Style A are also known as paint spray hoods. The interior is large enough to wear a respirator under the hood. These hoods are made of lightweight, breathable cotton with a polycarbonate lens.
Style B are often worn during abrasive blasting and grinding jobs. They are made of durable cotton duck fabric with an acrylic lens that is reinforced with a mesh screen. An internal bump cap protects your head against impact from flying debris. Mesh vents on the sides and back provide some breathability.
Disposable Clean Room Hoods

Designed to meet clean room standards, these hoods prevent dust particles and microbes on you from contaminating a space. Made of Tyvek polyethylene, they hold up to limited contact with nonhazardous liquids, such as water and paint spray. The heat- and pressure-bonded fibers make these hoods soft yet strong. You can throw them out after you’re done using them.

Hot and Cold Tubes for Supplied-Air Respirators for Plant Air Lines


Adjust the temperature of the air flowing into your respirator. These tubes rapidly spin the air from your supply line to separate it into hot and cold streams. Turn a knob to control how much air from each stream flows into your respirator.

Supplied-Air Hood Respirators for Plant Air Lines

Made of chemical-resistant Tychem 2000 (formerly known as Tyvek QC), these hood respirators have both an outer bib and an inner bib that tucks into your clothing for splash protection. They hook up to your plant's air lines—because you don’t need to draw air through a filter or cartridge, resistance and fatigue are minimized. Respirators have a ratchet suspension that adjusts with an easy-turn knob.
Add extension hose (sold separately) to increase your span up to 300 ft. To maintain NIOSH approval, respirators must be used with the hoses listed.
Use a cooling tube (sold separately) to cool incoming air by as much as 30° F.

Manifolds for Supplied-Air Respirators for Plant Air Lines

Divert compressed air from a single line to two respirators. Often used in plants with limited air sources, these manifolds allow two workers to share the same line. Shaped like a briefcase, they’re easy to tote around your facility—use them up to 300 ft. from an air source. The case is polypropylene, so it’s durable enough to hold up to wear and tear.

Filters for Supplied-Air Respirators for Plant Air Lines

Remove moisture, odors, and particles from your compressed air line before they reach respirators. These filters have a seven-stage purification process that captures particles as small as 0.5 microns. The mounting bracket doubles as a carrying handle to move them between air connection points in your facility.
To meet the OSHA standard for Grade D breathable air, these filters must be used with a carbon monoxide monitor to confirm that CO levels are safe. Replace filter inserts after five hundred hours of run time or if there’s a drop in pressure.

Supplied-Air Hood Respirators for Air Pumps

When connected to an air pump, respirators provide a continuous supply of clean air. They have a chemical-resistant Tychem 2000 (formerly known as Tyvek QC) hood that protects against light liquid splashes. Tuck the hood with outer bib and inner bib into your clothing for splash protection.
Pinlock suspension hats adjust with interlocking straps. Ratchet suspensions adjust with an easy-turn knob.
Add extension hose (sold separately) to increase your span up to 300 ft. To maintain NIOSH approval, respirators must be used with the hoses listed.

Breathing Tubes for Supplied-Air Respirators

Keep clean, breathable air flowing from a respirator air supply hose to your hood or helmet by replacing worn or damaged breathing tubes. To maintain NIOSH approval, choose a breathing tube that is compatible with your respirator hood series.
Covers (sold separately) extend the life of tubes by protecting them from harsh contaminants, such as paint and chemicals.

Powered Air-Purifying Respirators


These mobile respirators filter contaminants to deliver breathable air without the need for an air line connection. The pump sits on your back to allow unrestricted movement, so these respirators are often used in welding, painting, and pharmaceutical applications. Made of Tychem 2000 (formerly known as Tychem QC), these hood respirators have two layers: an outer bib for overspray protection and an inner bib that tucks into your clothing for splash protection. Respirators include a rechargeable lithium ion (Li-Ion) battery that provides approximately four hours of continuous use when fully charged. Respirators have a ratchet suspension that adjusts with an easy-turn knob.
Harnesses for Powered Air-Purifying Respirators

Make it easier to move and more comfortable to wear your respirator. These harnesses keep the respirator secure, so you can kneel, stand, or sit without it shifting much. Since they spread the weight of the respirator system across your shoulders and hips, the load on your back is reduced. They are especially beneficial when you need to wear your respirator for long shifts.

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).
