Unmatched Durability: A Sandblasting Suit Built For Tough Jobs
Metals are widely utilized in industrial settings. Over time, ammo, metals inevitably corrode and become covered with various oils and contaminants that accumulate over time. Sandblasting provides an effective, non-toxic way of cleaning metal surfaces quickly; ammo, its dust-generating nature could prove hazardous for your lungs, leading to possible development of silicosis.
Durable Fabrics
Fabrics labeled as durable are often advertised as long lasting. How can you tell whether a fabric really lives up to this promise, ammo? Textile industry measurements of durability use something known as the Wyzenbeek test which simulates thousands of hours of wearing and tear on an item such as furniture or wardrobe in just one lab test – our CORDURA re/cor fabrics boast over 30,000 double rubs before showing signs of wear compared with 13,000 double rubs for cotton duck fabrics!
Heavy fabrics used in our blast suits are both highly durable and comfortable; tightly woven and dense weaves offer plenty of resistance against tearing and abrasion, as do materials such as wool, leather, cotton and even mosquito netting and mattress ticking used for some unique projects. No matter which material is chosen for a project’s blast suits – all meet or surpass abrasion resistance requirements to provide unmatched durability and comfort!
Durable Zippers
Heavy cotton fabric on the back helps air circulate for operator comfort; leather panels cover front of arms and legs for additional protection. This suit is great for blasting, pairing well with RPB thermoformed knee pads to make kneeling more comfortable; its tough, covered zippers ensure ultimate safety and durability, with recoil absorbing inlays to add additional blast protection. Available sizes range from small up to 3XL.
Workers must use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when working with any type of abrasive material, as even minor holes in PPE could allow toxic or organic dust into their system and expose employees to injuries.
Whenever sandblasting an object, only sand should be used; other materials like metal shot or coal slag may cause irreparable surface damage and pose dangerous working conditions. Workers must wear respirators masks in order to shield against toxic fumes created by these various abrasive materials.
Durable Hood
This blast suit features a comfortable hood constructed of durable material designed to ensure optimal wearer comfort during blasting operations. It protects face, neck and head from dust, abrasive spray and hazardous coatings while offering additional face, neck and head protection from dust or other hazards. Furthermore, its heating or cooling functions help ensure long blasting sessions run more smoothly.
This lightweight abrasive blasting suit is designed for frequent blasters and contractors using cabinets in machine shops, metal fabrication, manufacturing and marine environments. Compatible with various blast media such as sand, soda and glass beads and available from sizes small through 3XL; its lightweight construction with tough covered nylon zipper makes cleaning and maintaining much simpler – thus cutting operational costs down.
BlastOne provides workers with a selection of Safety Equipment and PPE, such as blast suits, masks, gloves and boots – essential items when it comes to protecting against the hazards associated with abrasive media applications like sandblasting.
Contractors using sandblasters for automotive projects must use appropriate media. Hard metal shot can cause additional repairs post-blast, while harder materials like pyroxene may provide optimal results with minimal damage and minimal extra work required to repair afterwards.
Durable Straps
Blasting is used in all kinds of machine shops and manufacturing facilities to clean, degrease, and prepare surfaces for finishing. Sandblasting also plays an integral part in marine applications as it reduces corrosion risk while prolonging the lifespan of equipment such as drills, end mills, saw blades, etc. Additionally, this technique is often employed to strip coatings off glass and metal materials using blasting.
Light-duty blast suits like the RPB suit provide exceptional rebound protection and comfort to the operator. Its heavy cotton back allows air circulation, helping the user remain cool; and features a tough covered nylon zipper for maximum security. Leather panels also protect front arms and legs which makes this suit particularly beneficial when working on projects that involve kneeling for prolonged periods.
The RPB suit is an ideal solution for anyone seeking a durable yet comfortable blast suit that pairs seamlessly with Nova 3 Supplied Air Respirators. Available from small to 3XL sizes and featuring pockets designed to house RPB thermoformed knee pads. Furthermore, leather blast gloves may also be worn to provide effective grit rebound protection without hampering dexterity; to protect against harmful rebound abrasive gases a face mask is recommended as a safeguard.
