In modern industrial society, safety shoes are a relatively common type of labor protection equipment, and there are various types. Whether it is anti-smash safety shoes, anti-puncture safety shoes, anti-static safety shoes, or even anti-smash and anti-puncture insulated safety shoes, as long as you need it, you can find the safety shoes you want on the market.
Some friends asked us, how to choose safety shoes with safe and reliable protective performance? Today, the editor will explain this issue to you to help you understand better.
1. Anti-smash, the front of the shoe is equipped with a protective toe cap, which is resistant to pressure and impact. Anti-smash labor protection shoes mainly test the force that the shoes bear when heavy objects fall. Usually the standard force is 1100N. If the peak force that the shoes bear is less than this value, it means that the shoes do not meet the standard.
2. Anti-puncture, a steel piece is placed above the sole to prevent the foot from being punctured by sharp objects. Common materials include steel plates, Kevlar midsoles, etc. The anti-puncture force of anti-puncture safety shoes must be greater than 1100N to be qualified products that meet national standards. It can protect the feet from being stabbed and avoid accidents.
3. Anti-slip, anti-slip safety shoes have an anti-slip design, which not only protects people’s feet from injury, but also prevents accidents caused by operators slipping. The anti-skid performance of all safety shoes must meet SRA requirements. SRA-grade anti-skid safety shoes are tested on a ceramic tile surface with detergent solution, the pressure is 400N or 500N, and the anti-skid coefficient is greater than 0.32 when the entire shoe is tested.
4. Insulation, by insulating the soles of the shoes, the resistance of the shoes can block the path of dangerous currents passing through the body through the feet when withstanding the specified AC or DC voltage, so as to ensure that the leakage current through the human body does not exceed the human body tolerance range to protect workers from electric shock. Insulated shoes cannot use metal parts or accessories, and upper and lower seams should not be used to combine the upper and the bottom.
Today I will explain so much to you. I hope it will be helpful to you. When purchasing safety shoes, we must attach great importance to it and start with the details to avoid accidents.
