Why use a blast hood for sandblasting?

A blast hood, also known as a sandblasting hood, is a type of personal protective equipment (PPE) worn to protect the face and head from sandblasting hazards. The hood is typically worn in conjunction with other personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and respiratory protection.

There are several reasons why it’s important to use a blast hood when sandblasting, including:

1. Protection from dust and debris: Sandblasting generates dust and debris that can be inhaled, causing respiratory irritation and potentially serious lung diseases such as silicosis. A blast hood can help to protect the face and head from inhaling these particles. Please note that not all sandblasting hoods will have this feature. This model does not have this feature.
2. Protection from flying debris: Sandblasting can also generate flying debris that can cause eye injuries and other injuries to the face and head. A blast hood can help to protect against these hazards.
3. Improved visibility: A blast hood can have a clear visor which allows the operator to see the surface being worked on clearly and safely.
4. Lightweight and comfortable: Blast hoods are designed to be lightweight and comfortable to wear, allowing the operator to work for extended periods without experiencing fatigue.
5. Protection from noise: Sometimes sandblasting produces loud noises, which can damage hearing if improper ear protection is worn. Some blast hoods may come with built-in ear protection to help protect against noise hazards. This model does not have this feature.

It's important to note that a blast hood should be used in conjunction with other PPE, such as gloves and respiratory protection, and should be properly maintained and stored to ensure that it continues to provide adequate protection.
