These safety goggles from Powermat feature a panoramic clear polycarbonate lens providing a wide field of view and protection against flying particles, liquid splashes and coarse dust to EN166. The soft PVC and nylon frame sits snugly against the face, and the indirect ventilation provides airflow without open channels towards the eyes.

The model is designed to be worn over ordinary prescription glasses and works together with short-term-use half masks – a practical combination for grinding, cutting and working with chemicals. The wide elastic strap adjusts steplessly and has detachable strap clips.

Why tradespeople choose Powermat safety goggles

Tradespeople choose these goggles for the combination of protection ratings in a single model: impact resistance against medium-energy particles even at extreme temperatures, sealing against liquid droplets and splashes, and protection against coarse dust particles. The polycarbonate lens holds the highest optical class, meaning it can be worn throughout the working day without visual distortion. The close-fitting design and detachable strap clips make them easy to combine with other personal protective equipment.

Are the goggles suited to workshops and construction sites?

Yes – the protection ratings cover the most common risks in both settings: flying chips and particles during cutting and grinding in the workshop, plus dust and liquid splashes during bricklaying, rendering and concrete work on site. The clear lens suits indoor and outdoor work without colour distortion, and since the goggles are worn over prescription glasses, spectacle wearers need no separate prescription solution.

What does the EN166 marking mean?

The marking indicates the goggles' tested properties under the European standard for eye protection:

• 1 – highest optical class, for continuous work
• B – impact resistance against medium-energy particles
• T – impact resistance maintained at extreme temperatures
• 3 – protection against liquid droplets and splashes
• 4 – protection against coarse dust particles

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can the Powermat safety goggles PM-GO-OG4 be worn over prescription glasses?

Yes, the model is designed to be worn over prescription glasses without pressing on the frames. It also works together with half-mask respiratory protection for short-term use, making it suitable for grinding and dusty work where both protections are needed at once.

How are the Powermat safety goggles PM-GO-OG4 adjusted for different head sizes?

The size adjusts via the wide elastic strap, which tightens steplessly. The strap clips are also detachable, making strap replacement easier and simplifying combination with a helmet or other protective equipment. The soft PVC and nylon frame moulds to the face regardless of head shape.

What sets the Powermat safety goggles PM-GO-OG4 apart from open safety spectacles?

As a sealed goggle model, they sit snugly against the face and also protect against liquid droplets, splashes and coarse dust (EN166 classes 3 and 4) – risks that open spectacle designs let past from the side. The indirect ventilation still provides airflow, and the panoramic lens maintains a wide field of view despite the sealed construction.
