Low weight welding respirator
16 May 2019
Weighing just 805g, the RPB Z4 is one of the lightest welding/grinding respirators on the market. It is now available in the UK to help meet new HSE enforcement expectations for welding fume.

Designed with comfort as a top priority, the Z4 is said to be up to 23% lighter than other brands. Weight is evenly distributed to the sides of your head, eliminating top-heavy pressure points around the forehead and temples and alleviating strains on the neck and upper back.
With the Z4, productivity and efficiency don’t come at the cost of your protection. The flip-up welding visor allows you to quickly and easily transition from welding to grinding without exposing yourself to harmful welding fume.
Light on weight but not on capabilities, the Z4 is packed full of features to keep the wearer safe and productive all day. These include adjustable head suspension and airflow, optical clarity, and optional padding. Add-ons include communications and lighting accessories. Visitors to this year's Safety & Health Expo will be able to view the Z4. Stand number SH3070.
