Blundstone #982 chemical resistant safety boot

The chemical-resistant Blundstone #982 safety boot is suitable for aluminium refineries or industries where there is potential for hazardous liquid chemical exposure. Utilising Keprotec and XRD Technology has enabled the boots to incorporate all the features needed to provide long-wearing, durable and chemical-resistant boots. The boots come in a range of sizes, from five to 14, with half sizes available from size 7.5 to 10.5.

The safety boots feature a black chemical-resistant leather upper with TPU bump cap and TPU heel guard, with a heavy-duty YKK Vislon zip and self-clearing gusset behind the zip to prevent chemical penetration. Schoeller Keprotec fabric and Kevlar stitching are used on the tongue, collar and ankle area, to provide chemical and abrasion resistance. A full bellows tongue is also attached externally to reduce splash access potential, while a PU midsole and rubber outsole provide a lighter-weight option designed to increase slip resistance in varied environments. Oil-, acid- and organic fat-resistant, the boot also features a low density impact-absorbing polyurethane midsole with anti-bacterial agent.

The boot’s outsole is heat resistant to 300˚C, while its removable comfort arch footbed with XRD Extreme Impact Protection forepart insert provides superior comfort. The boot’s footbed is anti-bacterial, washable and breathable. SPS Max—XRD Technology in the heel strike zone provides increased underfoot impact protection and comfort. The chemical-resistant safety boot also provides electrical hazard resistance and features thermal regulating bamboo lining.
