Sellstrom 301 Face Shield Uncoated Clear Tint, Unbound, ANSI Z87.1

This Sellstrom Advantage face shield is a cheap, budget-friendly shield that works well for basic protection. It is the kind of face shield I do not mind using hard, scratching, or eventually replacing if it gets damaged. It should stop most normal debris and works great for things like weed trimming, light grinding, and basic shop or yard work. I would not use it for welding or heavy metal debris, but for general eye and face protection it does the job. One big advantage is that it does not fog up like safety glasses or goggles can. For jobs where glasses are annoying or keep fogging, this face shield is much easier to wear. For the price, it is a good disposable-level shield that works well for basic protection.

This face shield is excellent for workplace safety. The lightweight design makes it comfortable to wear for long periods, and the crown and ratchet headgear allow for easy, precise adjustment to fit securely. The clear shield provides full-face protection while maintaining good visibility. Durable and well-constructed, it’s ideal for workshops, labs, or any environment where splash or debris protection is needed. Practical, reliable, and comfortable — a top-notch safety accessory.

The face shield head gear is great, but the clear shield is slightly out of focus. It does have 2 protective covering film on the lens. A light blue-green color and clear one. Make sure you remove both films first. I have used many different face shields over the last 40+ years and some were poor, some good and some really great. Since, the company paid for the safety gear, I was lucky to get a great face shield because they also bought crappy face shields due to the disposable natural of the work. Here is how you can really tell if the clear shield is poor, good or really great. This test works with people who wear glasses and those who don't. Put the face shield on and look at some printed words with various fonts from 8 thru 14 on it with the face shield up. Focus on the print till it's clear and then put the shield down and look at the same print. If the word's go out of focus, then determine how much out of focus. Unfortunately, this mask shield (S-30120) is slightly out of focus and will cause eye strain if you need to use it for an extended period of time. I do miss the days when you can try on all the masks and pick the ones that matches your needs. Conclusion: Great for grinding or any work where you keep moving your head/eyes but bad if you have to focus at one point for more than a few minutes.

Sometimes you don't need anything fancy....just functional and well-made. I just needed basic protection that a general face shield provides. This product does that. It was easy to assemble. The protective covering on the actual clear face shield carries cautions to be certain to remove the protective covering from both sides of the plastic. I really like the rotating knob to simply twist to adjust the headband for the perfect fit. Comfortable headband. The face shield swings up easily and I found it easy to adjust to stay in the up position until I was ready for it to swing down. If your needs are simple and straight forward too, like me, I think you'll like this face shield.

Bought this face shield to use in a medical setting (outpatient clinic). The plastic crown and ratchet headgear was surprisingly lighter than expected, the fabric padding on the headband also helped with comfort. I was able to wear it for a full day of clinic while wearing a surgical mask beneath without any problems. The face shield was crystal clear (must remove protective covering from both sides of the shield before first use) and there was no fogging (have had this problem with other face shields, no anti-fogging fluid needed so far with this shield). Ratchet headgear allows faceshield to be easily raised and lowered if needed, the whole apparatus also easily loosened or tightened for a comfortable fit with a few simple turns of a knob in the back. Space beneath the face shield feels roomy and not restrictive. All around coverage feels very safe and adequate. Would recommend this for anyone looking for an affordable and comfortable face shield to wear for many hours in a clinical setting.

I have two face shield now. I has one with a hard hat attached, which is a bit bulky for me, but I uses for tall falling tree limbs. I recently got hit in the face from a rock while using the grass trimming and wanted a light face shield. It fits my head with the adjustment band and I can wear it over my glasses and have full face protection without the bulk.

First, thanks to those who pointed out that there is a thin plastic barrier on the outside, AND on the inside of the clear shield. The exterior one was easy to remove, but the interior requires finding a place to peel it off. It is so closely fitting, that one fears something important is being peeled off, but it is just plastic, and the crystal clear shield awaits underneath. The shield itself is very nice for the price. I do a lot of Dremel grinding and trimming of hard, brittle plastic, and inevitably get small plastic chips and particles flying at me. I wear safety glasses, but the rest of my face still gets bombarded. This face shield completely eliminates that problem. Don't know why I didn't buy one of these a long time ago. My family says I also look much more "important" while working wearing this face shield. I can live with that.

Hinge system does NOT lock in the up position. There are friction nut on both hinges. The threads are soft plastic, small diameter, and are not capable of tightening to up position holding power. Mine stripped on first use. Besides that, the plastic is incredibly thin. This is a good unit to protect you from a hot glue gun incident, not much else. Returned, refunded, bought the ArcCaptain unit for about double the price. But, that is a real face shield.

Good quality face shield

Surprisingly it fits my very big head just fine, which was my main concern when buying. Plastic shield attaches quickly. Overall the quality is decent. Pleased with the purchase.

Overall, it was acceptable as a face shield, it flared out on the sides a bit but that was the design of the helmet and how the shield fit with it (acceptable); there were two plastic films protecting the shield - one is easy to take off (the one with words) the other plastic film was more difficult to remove - if you don't remove it the shield is blueish blur - you need to pick at it otherwise it will not peel off. Better instructions needed on the removal of the plastic film covering the shield or at least make it more obvious that the other plastic film is meant to be removed. Comfort level of the helmet is okay ; the shield covers the front and side of the head.

Does the job it's supposed to; does fog up a bit but it's a cheap way to avoid metal shards in the face.

Little flimsy for the top head adjustment. Rest easy to assemble. Screen could be a wee longer
