®
does not protect against the potential transfer of impact to glasses worn
underneath the Visor. Z-LINK
®
visors do not provide complete eye and face protection
against severe impact and penetration and are not a substitute for good safety practices and
engineering controls.
HEAD:
The Z-LINK
®
meets the ANSI/ISEA Z89.1 requirements for physical head protection as a hard
hat. The helmet is designed to provide limited head protection by reducing the force of falling
objects striking the top of the head. Ensure the helmet is adjusted to properly fit the user by
