Mike_Shepard Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Who makes a good eye and ear protection products? I recently got a job cutting concrete and they supply these but the glasses are very uncomfortable and so are the sponge ear plugs. Any info would be great.

Mensan Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 The only hearing protection you should wear comes from your doctor and is fitted to your ear. Any glasses with a Z87 rating are OK to wear. You may want to consider goggles if you are around concrete dust. You definitely need wraparound glasses.

Orion Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 moldex, 3m are a couple companies. i work with safety glasses, earplugs, a hardhat and a mask, and im the safety coordinator for my department. let me know what you want, specifically, and i can probably get you some samples. eli is mostly right about hearing protection, the other alternative being hard hat mounted earmuffs. no need for a prescription or fitting on those.

Sam1647545489 Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Go to the Sams equipment rental on mound street. It is sunbelt rentals now I think. They have everything you need there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 I cant believe as long as they have been in business, that they not only are able to tell you what you need based on the equipment and audible decibles they omit but provide you with required PPE.
