DUNLOP 87982 Unisex Grey/Orange 16 Inch PVC Waterproof, Slip Resistant, Steel Toe, Pull On Boot

In 1995 OSHA began enforcing a new standard for personal protective equipment. As part of this standard employers now require ASTM F2413-24 rated safety footwear in areas where employees are exposed to injury as a result of falling or rolling objects. All steel toe boots with this icon meet or exceed ASTM F2413-24 I/C standards.

Static dissipative (SD) shoes regulate the build-up of electrical charge in an employee\\\\\\\'s body. Static dissipative (SD) shoes are commonly used in the manufacturing of computer components, solvent-based paints, and plastics, and help reduce the risk of static shock to people and to the manufactured product. All safety toe styles marked with the \\\\\\\"SD 35\\\\\\\" icon meet the ASTM F2413-24 SD35 / ASTM F2892-24 SD35 standards with a lower limit of electrical resistance of 106ohms and an upper limit of 3.5 x 107ohms (35 megohms).

Waterproof boots and shoes are constructed to keep the feet dry and comfortable in wet conditions. Waterproof construction requires continuous maintenance and is not guaranteed to remain for the life of the shoe.

Slip resistant safety footwear is the fastest growing segment of the safety footwear industry. For many employers with wet, oily, and/or greasy floors, it is common sense to require slip resistant safety footwear. Slip related injuries can be extremely costly. No shoe is slip proof, however employers who require slip resistant shoes can reduce worker’s compensation claims.

Saf-Gard is proud to offer several styles of safety shoes that are either made or assembled in the USA.
