Choose from a wide variety of visors that fit easily on MSA faceshield frames.
Visors should always be worn with primary eye protection such as high impact-resistant spectacles or goggles. Visors should be inspected frequently and replaced immediately if worn, scratched, or damaged in any way. Selection of proper models for specific hazards and communication of all instructions, precautions, and limitations to the wearer is the responsibility of user safety specialists, who are also responsible to see that they are strictly observed. Failure to comply with any of the above could result in serious injury or death.
Approvals
Most MSA Visors meet or exceed applicable requirements of ANSI Z87+ (high impact).
Maintenance: clean visor with mild soap and water. Cleaning dry or with coarse cloth will scratch the visor.
Do not use MSA visors for welding, elevated temperature applications, or for protection against other infrared radiation sources unless the MSA visor is approved for such applications. Do not use for sports, simulated war games, paintball games, or similar activities. A pitted or scratched visor reduces eye protection and vision. Inspect routinely and replace worn or damaged parts immediately. Do not alter or modify this product. Do not use near open flame. Failure to follow these warnings can result in permanent impairment of sight, other serious personal injury, or death.
