Abrasive Handling

Numerous mining injuries occur from working around low roofs, confined spaces, shoveling, lifting, and climbing.  We have highly abrasive gloves for this very reason.

Chemicals, Liquids, and Fluids

Cleaning mining equipment, working in processing plants, working around cutting oils and spray from leaking equipment are all concerns for the mining industry.

Chipping Stone

Goggles and sealed eyewear keep flying rock out of your eyes.

Cold Weather

Working in cold climates in open-pit surface mines during cold climates, miners will need winter clothing including bomber jackets, thermal coveralls, and insulated gloves.

Crush and Impact

Impact in confined spaces, impact from crush and other mining equipment, heavy tool handling, falling rocks, tire changing, using grinding equipment and loading materials can all be hard on the back of a worker’s hands.

Dirt, Grime, and Fluids

Mining underground and tearing into the earth gets a little dirty at times.  Coveralls are needed for underground mines, along with  raingear for outdoor surface mines.

Dust

Dirt and dust are virtually in all mining environments. Drilling, Blasting, and dust generated from hauling trucks are dust creators. Dust is known as one of the top on-the-job health risks of mining. 

Electrical Maintenance

Mines require a lot of electricity, electrical wires and electrical panels.  ARC Flash protection is the solution.

Equipment Repair and Maintenance

Mine sites use a lot of heavy trucks, hydraulics, conveyors, bulldozers and equipment.  Mechanics need excellent abrasive grip and many times require back-of-hand protection.

Handling Wire and Cables

Reinforced leather gloves are essential gear for miners.

Impaired Vision

Breaking up rock, drilling, and mining the earth creates flying particles.  Grinding residues are present too. Check out eyewear designed for this exact scenario.

Material Handling

Lifting moderately heavy objects can quickly scrape up your hands.  Material handling injuries are one of the leading causes of injuries for miners.

Operator Grip

Many workers drive equipment in mining operations.  Many mining fatalities occur due to Haul-Truck accidents.  Drivers should not even second-guess wearing premier leather driver gloves.

Overall Visibility

Underground mines are known for being dark and surface mines involve many moving vehicles.  High-visibility jackets, vests and reflective coveralls are a must!

Surveying

Mining requires a lot of mapping and planning.  Make sure you’re seen and have plenty of pockets!

Thermal Heat

Underground mining environments are often very hot and humid.  We manufacture safety gear that incorporates breathable fabrics!

UV Radiation

Working in a surface mine means the sun is probably directly hitting you.  UV protective eyewear and bright shirts are the ticket!

Welding

Installing steel borehole casings down a borehole requires welding at the joints. Face Shields and welding gear is essential mining gear.
