SAFETY ITEMS

This 300 Lumen LED light is a mighty mite. Just under 4-1/2" long x 1" dia, you slide the sleeve and the beam zooms from a flood to a don't-stare-into-this focused spot. In black or gun metal anodized aluminum, it's weatherproof and shockproof with a latching button switch and a pocket clip. Depress the button halfway when it's on and it goes into a rapid-flash mode for emergency signaling. Visible for 275 meters. Five hour life with the included 1-"AA" battery and a 110K+ hour bulb life.

The boys in the back room called this IZoom Pro™ flashlight ludicrously bright, and they’re usually right. Rated at 300, 1200, and 2500 lumens with a strobe setting, light is through a reticular COB LED element with an adjustable focus lens. Takes (6) “AA” batteries, and they’re included. Measures 7” long x 1-1/2” dia in black aluminum alloy body. Has up to a 4-hour life, depending on the beam strength you use.

Safety is as safety does these days, and we recommend these high-quality, safety goggles, unvented for maximum splatter protection and ANSI Z87.1-rated. Measure 6” wide x 3-5/8” tall x 3-1/8” deep. The black elastic strap is adjustable, and the flexible sides and top allow for a better seal against the face. One size fits most adults, and Pat, the boss around here, slipped them over his glasses, no problem. Goggles are sealed in a bag and the vendor says sterile if un-opened, which is good since you just washed your hands. We’ve seen them selling for $9-plus in the Ama-zone. Our price is better, right? Our bulk pricing makes them great for the workplace or schools.

Safety Glasses-R-Us. Behold our cornucopia of safety glasses, all in variations on the classic aviator style with added side shields. Measure approx 5-1/4” to 5-3/4” across with polycarbonate lenses. You pick the black metal frames with dark lenses and shields meeting ANSI Z87.1 standards or the brown plastic frames with dark lenses and shields.

Stay safe and find stuff in the dark by sticking this high-intensity reflective tape on bikes, bumpers, mailboxes, ramps, barricades, whatever. Red with gray, measures 2” wide and you get a 3-foot roll. US-DOT approved.

Add these heavy-duty black rubber treads wherever you need extra safety. In a raised pattern the same as diamond steel plate, each tread is 17-1/2" x 4" x 1/4" thick with a peel-off, self-adhesive back. Put ’em on stairs or in the workshop, garage, pool house, deck or shed.

You may need more reflective stuff to keep you safe. Try this sheet of slightly puffy reflective stickers in safety-vest yellow, with (48) pre-cut peel-and-stick triangles at 1-7/8”, 1-1/4”, 3/8”, and (5) 7/8” x 4” strips. We like them for added safety and also for finding small stuff in the dark with a flashlight.

These non-fog not-really-welding goggles are just what you need to cap off your costume. Sure, the flip-up dark lenses are too dark to see through easily (that's why they have conventional clear plastic lenses underneath them), but leaving them flipped up just adds to your zany, adventurous, steampunk persona. Aesthetics include side vents and an adjustable elastic head strap. And the goggles accept standard 50mm replacement lenses, but if you think the party is going to be that rough, we suggest that it would be cheaper and easier to just buy a couple of pairs at this price-from-the-past.

The mother of all flashlights! At a foot long, this extra-sturdy rechargeable LED COB flashlight shines an ultra-bright 5000 lumens and has the ability to charge your phone and other devices with its USB output. Has (3) beam settings (max/low/strobe) with an adjustable slide focus and a range of 150 meters. The 6000mAh powerbank has a USB port, and comes with a charging cable. Lasts 90 minutes on high, or three hours on low. Weatherproof, and the power cord stores in the handle.

Add these heavy-duty black rubber treads wherever you need extra safety. In a raised pattern the same as diamond steel plate, each tread is 12" x 12" x 1/4" thick with a peel-off, self-adhesive back. Put ’em on stairs or in the workshop, garage, pool house, deck or shed. Cut them up and use them for vibration feet for your stereo, computer, video games and more. Get creative!

The CamJam XT is a clever cast-aluminum rope-tightening tool and carabiner. Has a 7/8” ID carabiner hook at one end, and a 1-1/4” toothed ratchet at the other. Made to take braided rope between 1/8” and 3/8”. Has a working load limit of 500 lbs, and a break strength of 1500 lbs. Measures 4” x 1-3/4’ x 7/8”. Marked “not for climbing.”

Small protective goggles, for kids or anybody else with, well, a little head. (You know who you are.) They're 5" across, or 15% smaller than standard goggles. Nice quality, with a plastic lens and indirect ventilation. They meet ANSI standards for protection from flying chips and particles. Flexible, clear-vinyl body with adjustable elastic headband.

This aluminum alloy Versa Beam® tactical flashlight has an astounding (6) modes: low, medium and high flashlight; strobe and SOS at up to 350 lumens; and a 200-lumen side beam, which turns the whole thing into a lantern when you pull both ends apart and expand it. Also has a magnetic base. Weather-resistant, it measures 1-1/2" dia x just shy of 6” long, sliding open to 7”. You add a trio of “AAA” batteries, conveniently available right here, for (5) hours of light.

Oh, and there’s a 6-LED light in the handle, just as a bonus.

These Ear Buddy® noise reduction headphones have a 27-DB reduction rating. We'll pick a pair in blue, purple or green because ears don't care. These aren’t adjustable and will fit only a small noggin, but that small noggin will enjoy some sweet noise-reduction sound, we can tell you that much.

Plastic safety goggles with a clear, fairly hard single pane front. The wrap around is clear, and the top and sides have dozens of little holes for ventilation. The whole is big enough to fit over regular glasses comfortably. An elastic strap holds them in place. Made in China.

In a world of Nitrile, sometimes you just want a pair of old-fashioned latex rubber gloves. These are a medium-weight, lined and with textured palms so you don’t drop the dishes. You pick small or medium. From Showa® Best Glove, Inc.

A sunburned neck is nothing to laugh at. This mesh neck protector is made to fit over a hard hat, and is safety orange with reflective yellow stripes. But the elasticized band will fit over caps, hats and just plain heads of all sorts and sizes for hikers, gardeners, and outdoors folk in general. Perforated like safety vests for ventilation. Measures 19” wide to protect tender ear tops and 16” long, which is long enough to cover Audrey Hepburn's neck. Pat says it's also a perfect reflector vest for dogs on nighttime walks.
