OVERVIEW

Classic Protection for the Modern Shop

When it comes to eye protection, sometimes the classic designs are still the best. The 303CL Safety Glasses feature a timeless "old school" frame that has been a staple in workshops and garages for decades. Designed for mechanics, hobbyists, and tradespeople who appreciate a robust feel, these glasses provide essential protection without overcomplicating things. The clear lens is perfect for general indoor work, allowing for unimpeded vision whether you are operating a drill press, organizing parts, or performing vehicle maintenance.

The core of these glasses is the 303 Polycarbonate lens. Polycarbonate is legendary in the safety industry for its high impact resistance. Unlike standard glass or basic plastic, polycarbonate can withstand significant force from flying particles, wood chips, and metal shavings, keeping your eyes safe from the unpredictable hazards of the job site. The material is also naturally lightweight, ensuring that the glasses don't become a burden to wear over long shifts.

One of the standout features of this model is the inclusion of side protectors. Eye hazards don't always come from straight ahead; sparks, dust, and debris often ricochet off surfaces and approach from the side. The integrated side panels on the 303CL close that gap, providing peripheral coverage that standard reading glasses or open-sided frames simply cannot match. This comprehensive coverage gives you the confidence to focus on your work, knowing your vision is shielded from multiple angles.

These glasses are an excellent choice for stocking up your home garage or professional workshop. They serve perfectly as a primary pair for daily tasks or as a reliable backup for visitors and helpers. Their universal fit and durable construction mean they are ready to go whenever you are. Don't compromise on safety—stick with a proven design that combines durability, clarity, and full-coverage protection.

FAQ

No, these are clear safety glasses and do not provide the necessary infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) shading required for viewing welding arcs. They are suitable for prep work and general safety only.

Yes, the 303CL model features integrated side panels (side shields) to provide peripheral protection against flying debris.

The lenses are made from 303 Polycarbonate, a material known for its high impact resistance and durability.

These are generally designed as standalone safety glasses. While the 'old school' frame is slightly larger, they are not specifically rated as OTG (Over-The-Glass) eyewear.

Polycarbonate is naturally tough, but unless specified as having a hard-coat, they can scratch over time. It is recommended to clean them with a microfiber cloth to prolong lens life.

Polycarbonate lenses naturally block a significant amount of UV radiation (typically up to 99.9% of UVA/UVB), even if they are clear.

These are a 'one size fits most' universal design, suitable for most adult face shapes.

They provide impact protection for flying sparks and debris, but for heavy grinding, it is highly recommended to wear a full face shield over these safety glasses for complete facial protection.
