IS 8521 (Part 1):1977 Industrial Safety Faceshields (Part 1) With Plastics Visor
PDF · 16 pages · English · IS Codes

This Indian Standard specifies requirements for industrial safety faceshields fitted with transparent plastics visors for protection of the face against flying particles, chips, sawdust, metal fragments, splashes of hazardous liquids, molten metal, and slag. The standard covers faceshields used in woodworking, machining, grinding, polishing, buffing, spot welding, and chemical handling operations. It classifies faceshields into three types: faceshields without crown protector, faceshields with crown protector, and faceshields designed for attachment to safety helmets. The standard specifies design requirements, visor dimensions, materials, marking, workmanship, testing procedures, impact resistance, penetration resistance, flammability performance, visible light transmission, and disinfection requirements to ensure adequate face protection in industrial workplaces.
