Equipo de protección

At minimum, woodworkers should wear eye protection, hearing protection during machine use, and respiratory protection during sanding or finishing. A full-face shield, dust mask, earmuffs, and nitrile gloves together cover the most common hazards in a typical woodworking shop.

NRR (Noise Reduction Rating) is a standardized measure of how much sound a hearing protector attenuates. Higher NRR values indicate greater noise reduction. The Infinity Tools NRR-24 earmuffs are rated at 24 dB of reduction, which is appropriate for most stationary woodworking machines.

Yes. The over-the-glasses safety glasses in this collection are specifically designed to fit over standard prescription eyewear, providing impact protection without requiring a separate prescription safety lens.

A mesh face shield covers the entire face and provides protection from chips and flying debris across a wider area than safety glasses alone. Safety glasses offer more targeted eye protection and are lower profile. For operations like turning on the lathe or power carving, a full-face shield offers superior coverage.

Replace mask filters when breathing resistance increases noticeably, when the filter appears visibly dirty, or after the manufacturer's recommended service interval. RZMask M2 replacement filters are available to keep the mask performing to its rated filtration level.

Gloves should not be worn near rotating machinery such as drill presses, lathes, or jointers — they can catch on spinning parts and pull the hand into the machine. Reserve nitrile gloves for finishing, chemical handling, and other non-rotating operations. Remove gloves before operating any spinning tool.

Heavier-gauge nitrile gloves provide better chemical resistance for stains, solvents, and finishes. The Sempermed 56-mil nitrile gloves are a heavy-duty option suited for extended contact with finishing chemicals.

Yes. Replacement windows for the mesh visor are available in a 5-pack, making it easy to keep the shield in service when the mesh becomes damaged or difficult to see through.
