Portwest Replacement Clear Visor

Product Overview

In the demanding world of industrial safety, seeing what you are doing is generally considered a significant workplace advantage. The PW92CLR Replacement Clear Visor is a precision-engineered polycarbonate component designed to restore the full protective capacity of your face shield assembly. Rather than replacing an entire headgear unit when the lens becomes pitted or scratched, this replacement visor allows for a cost-effective maintenance strategy without compromising on safety standards.

Key Features

• High-Impact Polycarbonate: Constructed from durable polycarbonate, which provides essential protection against high-speed particles, ensuring your eyes and face remain shielded from mechanical hazards.
• Versatile Compatibility: Specifically designed to fit the PW90 and PW91 models, as well as the PW58 and PS58, offering a flexible solution across multiple head protection ranges.
• EN 166 (1B) Certification: Fully tested and certified to meet European safety standards for impact resistance, providing peace of mind that your equipment is fit for purpose.
• Optically Clear: The transparent finish ensures maximum light transmission and minimal distortion, which is critical for precision tasks and long-term wearer comfort.

Design & Performance

This visor is manufactured from high-grade polycarbonate, a material chosen for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio. It is designed to be lightweight, which is a vital consideration for professionals who must wear head protection for extended shifts; a heavy visor is a recipe for neck fatigue. The '1B' rating under EN 166 indicates it can withstand medium energy impacts, making it suitable for various industrial applications where flying debris is a risk.

The clear finish is not merely about aesthetics; it is about maintaining a natural field of vision. By replacing a damaged visor promptly with this clear polycarbonate version, you ensure that visibility remains at an optimum level, reducing the risk of accidents caused by obscured sightlines.

Why No Customisation?

We do not offer customisation, such as printing or stickers, on the PW92CLR Replacement Clear Visor for critical safety reasons. Any modification to the surface of the polycarbonate can compromise its structural integrity and obscure the wearer's vision. Furthermore, the adhesives found in some decals can react with the polycarbonate material, potentially causing it to weaken or crack over time. To maintain the EN 166 certification and ensure your safety, this product must remain in its original, manufactured state.

Use Cases

This replacement visor is an essential stock item for workshops, construction sites, and manufacturing facilities. It is ideal for workers engaged in grinding, stone cutting, or any task where high-speed particles are generated. It is specifically intended for those already utilizing Portwest PW90, PW91, PW58, or PS58 browguards and helmets who require a fresh lens to maintain clear visibility.

Practical Advice

When fitting the replacement visor, ensure that all attachment points are securely clicked into place on your compatible browguard or helmet. We recommend inspecting your visor at the start of every shift; if you notice deep scratches, cracks, or any signs of material fatigue, it is time to fit a new PW92CLR. Always ensure you are pairing it with the correct compatible models (PW90, PW91, PW58, or PS58) to guarantee a secure fit.

Caring for your product

To maintain the performance and longevity of your polycarbonate visor, regular and careful cleaning is essential. Dirt and grit left on the surface can lead to premature scratching, which will eventually obscure your vision and necessitate another replacement.

We recommend cleaning the visor with lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cloths or solvent-based cleaners, as these can permanently damage the polycarbonate surface and strip away any protective coatings. After washing, pat the visor dry with a soft, lint-free cloth to avoid streaks and ensure maximum clarity for your next shift.
