Safety

ERB Safety clear safety glasses are an inexpensive way to keep every crew member in eye protection. Clear lenses are the everyday choice for shade, canopy work, overcast days, and early starts.

Where clear lenses fit

Clear lenses are the everyday choice for shade, canopy work, overcast days, and early starts. Pick the lens for the light you work in; tinted lenses in deep shade make it hard to see cuts, and clear lenses in full sun cause squinting.

Because they cost so little, it is easy to stock a box in the truck so nobody has an excuse to work without them. Compare other eye protection if you need a different fit.

Check the rating and replace often

Confirm the glasses are marked to the impact standard your work requires. Replace them once lenses are scratched, pitted, or cracked, since damaged lenses reduce both vision and protection.

Keep both clear and tinted pairs on hand so crew members can match the lens to the light as it changes through the day. Cheap glasses also reduce the temptation to keep wearing a scratched pair. Store them in a case or a clean bag rather than loose on the dash, where they scratch and pick up sap. A scratched lens is cheap to replace, so replace it.

Wear safety glasses for saw work, chipping, and climbing, and add a face screen for heavy chip and sawdust exposure. Follow ANSI Z133 for personal protective equipment.
