3M Grey Polycarbonate Face Shield with Face Guard, Resistant To Chemical Splash, Flying Particles

3M WPAF2-0 Series Face Shield, Polycarbonate Shield Material, Grey Lens - 7100290670

This face shield provides frontal protection for users exposed to splashes and airborne fragments in industrial settings. It features a robust transparent visor designed to intercept chemical spray and impact hazards while offering clear forward vision. The shield is suitable for workers requiring a full-face guard that complements other personal protective equipment.

Features and Benefits:

• Polycarbonate visor resists impact and scatters energy on contact
  Grey-tinted lens reduces glare in bright environments
  Chemical splash resistance prevents liquid penetration to face
  Designed for protection against flying particles at close range
  Face guard configuration offers full frontal coverage for tasks

Applications

• Suitable for metalworking tasks generating airborne debris
  Ideal for laboratory environments handling corrosive liquids
  Used with respirators in paint-spraying operations
  Can be used for maintenance work involving grinding or cutting
  Appropriate for inspection lines where splash hazards exist

How does the lens material behave under impact loads?

The polycarbonate construction absorbs and disperses kinetic energy, reducing the likelihood of penetration by small, fast-moving fragments while maintaining optical clarity.

What optical characteristic aids operators in high-light areas?

The grey tint diminishes excessive brightness and glare, helping to preserve contrast and reduce visual fatigue during prolonged exposure to illuminated workspaces.

Is the shield suitable for protection against liquid hazards?

The design provides a barrier against chemical splashes, directing fluids away from the face to minimise direct contact with the skin and respiratory PPE beneath.

How does the guard integrate with other head-mounted equipment?

Its face-oriented form allows simultaneous use with head and respiratory assemblies, offering coverage without obstructing masks or helmets.
