New Line of Klein® Protective Eyewear for Comfortable, All-Day Use, Meets ANSI and OHSA Requirements



CHICAGO, IL - January 2003 - Klein Tools has introduced a new line of protective eyewear that meets ANSI and OSHA requirements and are CSA certified. Designed for comfort and all-day use, the new line features anti-fog, scratch-resistant, anti-UV lens coatings; adjustable temple lengths; and stylish wrap-around designs.

All three of the lens coatings are permanently bonded. The anti-fog coating minimizes lens fogging in almost any environment. The anti-scratch coating provides superior scratch resistance. The anti-UV coating blocks 99.9% of UVA and UVB radiation.

The adjustable temple lengths provide a customized fit, while the temple end-holes allow for easy lanyard attachment. There are three styles of protective eyewear available: standard, frameless and contemporary.

The standard design features wrap-around lenses for clear peripheral vision and eye protection. A frame and lens ventilation channel reduces moisture build-up and fogging of the lens. The design also includes a soft, comfortable brow guard for impact energy absorption. Available colors are: black frame/clear lens, royal blue frame/clear lens and black frame/brown tint lens.

The lightweight, frameless design features frameless, wrap-around lenses for unobstructed vision and coverage. The lightweight design provides all-day comfort. Available colors are: slate blue frame/clear lens and slate blue frame/brown tint lens.

The contemporary design features a contemporary wrap-around design for exceptional coverage and vision. This model features a unique lens with a side shield design for maximum eye protection and a universal molded-in nose piece. Available color: black with clear lens.

The standard and frameless designs are available with brown-tinted lenses for outdoor use. Both styles meet the traffic signal recognition requirements of ANSI Z80.3-1996. All models also meet the requirements of CSA Z94.3-1992 and OSHA 1910.133.
