Abstract

This Uganda Standard specifies additional performance and marking requirements for mesh protectors designed to provide protection for the eyes and faces of persons against mechanical hazards such as impacts from flying particles and fragments. The other applicable requirements for mesh protectors and the frames/mountings to which they are intended to be fitted are given in US ISO 16321?1.This document also applies to mesh protectors used in educational establishments. This document also applies to those eyes and face protectors used for occupational-type tasks that are performed similarly to an occupation, e.g. "do?it?yourself". (This standard cancels and replaces US ISO/FDIS 16321-3:2019, Eye and face protection for occupational use- Part 3: Additional requirements for mesh protectors, which has been technically revised). This standard was published on 15 June 2021.
