The American National Standards Institute establishes Z87 safety glasses and other personal protective equipment requirements. Besides being rated to reduce additional risks, ANSI prescription safety glasses are tested for impact resistance. Corrective safety glasses are compliant with Z87. 1. The American National Standard for safety goggles, side shields safety glasses and other eye and face protection devices is ANSI Z87. 1-2020: American National Standard For Occupational And Educational Personal Eye And Face Protection Devices which is the most recent edition.
These labels indicate compliance with the ANSI Z87. 1 standard minimal specification. ANSI/ISEA Z87. 1-2020 provides marking specifications, but this document goes into more detail outlining standards for testing permanent marking choosing maintaining and using protectors to reduce the likelihood severity or avoidance of injuries.
In occupational and educational settings such as machinery operations material welding, cutting chemical handling and assembly operations, these injuries include impact non-ionizing radiation and liquid splash exposures.
However, please be aware that other potentially dangerous exposures such as bloodborne pathogens X-rays microwaves radio-frequency radiation high-energy particle radiation lasers masers sports and recreation are not covered by the standard.
ANSI Z87. 1-2020 requirements are performance-oriented standards that apply to protectors when they are initially put into service. As a result, protectors with the permanent marking ANSI Z87+ safety glasses fully satisfy all applicable standards and requirements.
Based on how well test subjects perform ANSI rates the safety of eyewear. The Z87 standard is satisfied by Z87 prescription safety glasses that can withstand impact from a steel ball with a diameter of one inch and a weight of roughly 2 and a half ounces that falls from a height of 50 inches. Safety eyewear frames and lenses are marked with any applicable standards.
3m Z87 safety glasses have undergone and completed high-mass and high-velocity testing. In a high mass test, glasses mounted on a head form are dropped from a height of approximately 50 inches with a pointed weight of slightly over one pound. At over 100 miles per hour, a quarter-inch-diameter steel ball is shot at 20 impact points on eyewear during high-velocity testing.
While some ANSI Z87 safety glasses have the Z87 mark others have the Z87+ mark. Why is that the case? The safety glasses can withstand varying degrees of impact thanks to these corresponding markings. Z87+ safety glasses testing calls for additional testing whereas cool safety glasses Z87 testing only involves dropping a steel ball onto a pair of safety glasses from a height of approximately 4 feet.
The glass frames and lenses must stay intact to pass. A heavy but slower-moving spike is aimed at the lens in the high-mass impact test. A tiny quickly-moving projectile is used in the high-velocity impact test. Additionally, a low-mass, low-velocity sharp object is used as a punishment in the dart penetration test.
The lenses cannot affect the head figure's eyes and the frames and lenses must hold together during each of these tests. Safety eyewear must pass these extra tests besides the Z87 certification testing to be labelled with the Z87+ designation.
Furthermore, to meet safety standards, lenses must pass a minimum of ten optical clarity tests in which any level of haze refraction astigmatism or prismatic power that is deemed unacceptable is checked for. All of these tests make sure the lens doesn't cause any noticeable focus loss incorrect alteration or image shifting.

What Is Z87 Safety Glasses?
The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) has established precise safety standards for a certain type of protective eyewear, which is called Z87 safety glasses or ANSI Z87.1 safety glasses. These specifications guarantee that the eyewear offers sufficient defence against impact, splash, dust, and other potential dangers in a range of job settings.
What Does Z87 + Mean On Safety Glasses?
Safety glasses with the Z87+ mark satisfy ANSI Z87.1 impact protection requirements. Improved high-velocity impact resistance is indicated by the "+," providing greater protection in risky situations.
What Does Z87-2 Mean On Safety Glasses?
Safety glasses marked with Z87-2 indicate that they fulfil ANSI Z87.1 standards in addition to any other requirements provided by the manufacturer. It indicates adherence to particular impact and optical clarity specifications.
