All Abrasi-Blast Respirators are equipped with a hood to provide limited protection to the user’s head and neck from rebounding
abrasive materials. The hood also provides limited protection to the facepiece lens by using removable glass lens covers.
Abrasi-Blast Respirators are available in waist and shoulder models which may be used with the breathing tube outside or
under the hood.
