PRUSA PRO Face Shield

prusaprinters

<p><em>PRUSA PRO</em> Face shield is the final version of our face shield (successor to the Prusa Face Shield RC3). The main difference from the RC3 version is the larger visor and 2 pins on the side for a better fixation.<br/> Face shield is used as protective equipment against droplets and liquid spray. It serves as an additional layer of protection in an environment with higher risk of being hit in the face with various liquids.</p> <p>For a faster print <a href="https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/32810">check the stack version</a> with our fast print farm settings. One complete shield takes <strong>~ 1 h 35 min</strong>.</p> <p>This shield provides complete protection of the entire face (flying drops, sprayed liquids) and has passed the official certification procedure according to the standards. It provides not only frontal protection (like the RC3 version), but protection on the sides as well. The <strong>Prusa PRO Face Shield meets the standard of EN 166:2001 for protection against drops and sprays (protection class 3)</strong>.
