Description

Designed by re:3D, this improved PPE Face Shield is approved by Infectious Disease at Texas Children's Hospital. Provides closed brim to protect from droplets entering above the forehead. One-piece 3D printed design reduces need for extra materials in short supply and is more readibly sterilizable for re-usability. Fully adjustable head band. Utilizes standard medical grade PETG lens giving 180 degree protection.

 

Head band can be printed from PETG or DOW Olefin Block Copolymer (OBC).

***REV 11 ***

Added a tab to make it easier to open the latch to loosen the headband. 

Rev 11 includes two variations of the design: one for fitting with a PETG lens from Professional Plastics, and one for fitting a lens with holes punched from a US standard 3 hole punch (7mm holes, 108mm apart).
