Strong, Functional Safety Eye Gear.

Adjustable Lens Angle & Temple Lengths

So formfitting, it’s like every pair is custom molded.

Eyewear that doesn’t fit right either doesn’t get worn, or requires constant readjustment.

Both pose a danger to employees. RAVE helps solve this fit problem.

The temple length easily adjusts to a choice of four positions. Better yet, there’s a choice of three different lens angles. The lens can be angle-adjusted up or down, to match the angle of the wearer’s face. The result is virtually a custom fit for almost any shape face.

Metallic Frame Colors.

A matter of choice. A matter of class.

Without a doubt, RAVE eyewear is a whole new kind of safety glass. So it made sense to offer it in a whole new selection of Metallic Colors. Slate, Blue and Purple. Three great choices for both men and women. Only AOSafety could make a safety glass with this much class.

Eye Protection

For a panoramic view of the work area.

The RAVE™ wraparound lens provides a front and side barrier to flying particles. This “panoramic” lens also allows for a wide frontal and periph- eral view of the work area. Popular with both men and women, this wrap- around style is the most widely-accepted eyewear design in the industry.

Revolutionary Vented Browguard

This new vented browguard helps minimize

fogging and provide better coverage.

This new “vertically-vented” browguard design helps ventilate warm air up and out from behind the lens, increasing comfort and reducing perspiration and fogging. The newly designed AOSafety browguard also reduces distracting reflections and glare from overhead light fixtures.

DX™ Anti-Fog Lens Coating.

Resists fogging, scratching, static and chemical attack.

Others have tried, but no polycarbonate lens coating has ever outperformed DX™ Anti-Fog Lens Coating from AOSafety. It resists scratches, static, and most commonly used chemicals. And it min- imizes fogging in even the toughest working conditions.

Vented Browguard

For different tasks and environments,

and for saving money.

They say one of the few constants in life is change. Not a problem with RAVE eyewear. There are different lenses available to meet a variety of job require- ments or personal tastes. Making the switch is easy. Just snap the lens out of the frame. And you’ll see a savings by using economical replacement lenses.

CSA Z94.3-92, ANSI Z87.1 specifications

AOSafety CSA Z94.3-92 and ANSI Z87.1 are essential standards designed to ensure the safety and effectiveness of protective eyewear. These standards address the performance requirements for various types of eye and face protection used in industrial, construction, and other hazardous work environments.

The CSA Z94.3-92, established by the Canadian Standards Association, outlines the requirements for ocular protection devices, emphasizing their ability to withstand impacts, provide optical clarity, and offer resistance to chemical exposure. This standard encompasses a wide range of protective eyewear, including safety glasses, goggles, and face shields. The primary focus is on impact resistance, which is critical for worker safety. Eyewear that meets CSA Z94.3-92 is tested against various impact scenarios to ensure it can withstand sudden force without shattering or causing harm to the wearer.

On the other hand, the ANSI Z87.1 standard, created by the American National Standards Institute, similarly identifies the performance criteria for safety eyewear in the United States. The ANSI Z87.1 standard includes rigorous testing for optical quality, including parameters like lens thickness, optical distortion, and scratch resistance. This standard also addresses the potential for side protection in eyewear designs to shield wearers from flying particles, dust, and chemicals.

A significant feature of both CSA Z94.3-92 and ANSI Z87.1 is their classification system, which categorizes protective eyewear based on its intended use and level of protection. For instance, eyewear is rated for use in various occupational settings, ranging from light industrial environments to heavy-duty applications. This classification assists users in selecting the most suitable eyewear based on specific workplace hazards.

Modern technologies implemented in eyewear meeting these standards include anti-fog coatings, scratch-resistant materials, and UV protection. Many manufacturers employ advanced polycarbonate lenses that are lightweight yet highly resistant to impact. Additionally, the incorporation of ergonomic designs ensures a comfortable fit, promoting prolonged wear without discomfort.

In summary, both AOSafety CSA Z94.3-92 and ANSI Z87.1 standards play a pivotal role in protecting workers' eyes in hazardous environments. They offer a framework for evaluating the effectiveness of protective eyewear, promoting innovation in design and materials to enhance safety performance. Compliance with these standards not only ensures legal adherence but also fosters a culture of safety in the workplace.
