Each abrasive blasting operation is unique, involving different surfaces, coatings, blast material, and working conditions. Abrasive blasting PPE is designed to shield the user’s respiratory system, vision and hearing, and includes eye, face and hearing protection, leather gloves, blast suits and aprons, plus safety shoes or boots. Blast suits are lightweight and durable, and they are designed to protect the wearer from any abrasive material that is forced back at the worker.
