Portwest PS12 Tech Look Spectacle – Smoke Lens (PS12SKR)

Description

Genuine Portwest · Part no. PS12SKR

Portwest PS12 Tech Look spectacles with the smoke lens are the tinted version of this light safety frame, meant for outdoor jobs in bright daylight such as cutting, strimming round the drive or working on a car parked in the sun. The lens is marked EN 166 (1 FT) and EN 172 (5-3.1), with side vents and an anti-scratch, anti-fog coating.

Good to know

• What is EN 172? It is the standard for sun glare filters worn at work, so this smoke lens is rated to cut glare as well as to stop flying bits.
• Can I wear them indoors or at dusk? A tinted lens makes dim places darker, so for the garage, under the car or after dark the clear lens version is the safer pick.
• Do they protect against splashes? No. Spectacles guard against flying particles but leave gaps round the eyes, so use sealed goggles for chemicals and fine dust.

Which one?

For indoor work and low light, the Portwest PS12 Tech Look Spectacle – Clear Lens (PS12CLR) is the same frame with a clear lens. Another tinted option is the Portwest PW38 Pan View Spectacles – Black Frame – Smoke Lens (PW38BKR), which adds a spec cord.
