FAQs

What does the U6 marking on these goggles mean?

The U6 marking indicates a high level of ultraviolet filtration under the ANSI Z87.1 standard. The lenses absorb 99.9% of UV radiation while maintaining clear visibility and natural color recognition.

Why would I want UV protection on goggles?

Shortwave ultraviolet radiation (UVC) is especially hazardous, causing potentially long-term damage to your eyes and skin from sufficient exposure. Use of UV protective equipment like goggles can help significantly reduce these risks by protecting your eyes from damage caused by direct exposure.

Can these UV protective goggles be worn over prescription glasses?

Yes. The large over-the-glass design accommodates most prescription eyewear while providing broad wraparound coverage.

Are these goggles rated for chemical splash protection?

No. These goggles use direct ventilation and are not rated for chemical splash protection. Applications involving liquid splash hazards require appropriately rated splash goggles.
