New DEWALT PPE to keep workers safe

MEMPHIS, TN—August 19, 2020—Just as construction workers trust DEWALT® tools to get the job done, many safety managers trust DEWALT safety products to help keep workers safe.

Radians®, a top-tier manufacturer and supplier of PPE, recently launched five new DEWALT products, including two work gloves, a deluxe hooded sweatshirt, a Ripstop rain jacket, and a no line bifocal safety glass.

New DEWALT Gloves for protection, comfort, and performance
“The DEWALT DPG72 has the potential to become a bestselling glove across multiple industries,” said Bob Kelsey, hand protection manager for Radians. “It has a double-dipped engineered coating for a flexible durable grip and great abrasion-resistance too. It also features an oil and water resistant palm and will be right at home in the concrete, construction, and automotive industries.”

The DPG35 work glove features a 15 gauge nylon/Spandex shell with a water-resistant and breathable nitrile coating. “It helps fill the void for a full dip water-resistant and breathable glove, so hands don’t sweat as much,” said Kelsey.

Tackle Cooler Temps, Wind, and Rain with New DEWALT Apparel
In addition to new gloves, Radians has added a DEWALT deluxe hooded sweatshirt and a rain jacket.

The DEWALT DSJ32 deluxe fleece sweatshirt features black color-blocking and black cuffs. “Color-blocking enhances the look of hi-vis apparel and hides dirt to extend useful life,” said Nicole Novick, Radians product manager for hi-vis apparel. This Type R Class 3 sweatshirt features a zipper front closure and a removable/ adjustable hood with draw cord. “It’s soft, warm, and comfortable and can be worn in place of a polyester jacket or as a layering piece in colder climates,” said Novick.

The DEWALT DRW11 is a Type O Class 1 waterproof jacket constructed with durable Ripstop fabric. This three-season lightweight black waterproof jacket has an extended hood for extra protection from wind and rain and features hi-vis green contrast trim and reflective segmented tape to provide Class 1 visibility. “It also has vented underarm zippers when extra breathability is needed, plus it packs and stores easily and has a strap for hooking to your backpack,” said Novick.

New DEWALT Bifocal Eyewear with Modern Design and Tech
Are you looking for protective eyewear with the focusing power of a reader? The DPG106 Spector® InViz from DEWALT features the magnifying and focusing power of a reader and the protection of an ANSI Z87.1 rated safety glass.

The magnifier in the DPG106 is molded into the impact-resistant lens, virtually eliminating the hard line commonly visible on most bifocal glasses when transitioning from regular strength to either an available 1.5, 2.0 or 2.5 diopter. Spector In-Viz also features a vented half frame to help reduce fogging, which is important since wearing face masks is a public mandate in most cities and businesses. Mechanical, construction, and electrical industries will appreciate this new lightweight and comfortable DEWALT bifocal option with more modern design and tech.
