About this deal

When in control of a hand or power tool, it is your responsibility to do everything in your power to keep you and the environment safe. That means wearing visors, gloves, goggles with anti-fogging coatings, vented respirators, face masks made of premium cushion materials and ear muffs with soft ear cups.

The braces are also adjustable so if you are a bit taller than most, you have a little bit of extra length at your disposal. Comprised of the same six layer material that their equally excellent Yukon chainsaw trousers are made of, they offer a very good level of protection while still being flexible and easy to move around in. Another hearing protection option are earmuffs. Earmuffs will provide you with the most protection from excessive noise. In addition to the NRR, you’ll also want to consider the weight of the earmuffs and how comfortable they are. Most protective earmuffs will have PVC cushions for added comfort. Safety-wise these are excellent, with protective padding that covers at least a 180 degree arc across the front and sides of the leg. The tough polysester/cotton twill material provides protection from all the things you would expect-oil, water, etc. and has been safety tested in Europe to make sure that they will stop that chainsaw blade when needed. When working at heights, never leave tools lying out in the areas where they could present a hazard to the people below.In conclusion, if you have the extra few quid to spare, I would go with these trousers every day of the week. However, if you are on a tighter budget or just don’t use chainsaws enough to warrant paying a hundred quid, any of the other, cheaper products would more than suffice. To ensure durability, Husqvarna have made sure that there is absolutely no way fopreign objects can get into the inner material, no matter how small. The protective layer is completely covered and all seams are sealed so that not even small particles of sawdust can get it.

The affairs, business and property of the Company are being managed by the Administrators and who act as agents of the Company without personal liability. Push the earplug into your ear canal, holding it there for a few seconds until it fills your ear canal. This will provide the best fit and greatest protection. Type-C trousers offer all round protection from cutting and these are the ones you want to use if you are going to be cutting up at heights or at strange angles due to the higher risk of the chainsaw slipping. Full trousers, dungarees or chaps? As a general guide though sizes 48-52 are about medium 54-56 are large, and 58 to 60+ are extra-large. If you have a 35 inch waist like me you should go for a size 58 if you want to wear these over some jeans. The original safety helmets were made out of aluminum. While aluminum hard hats are still worn today, the majority of safety helmets are now made out of plastic.If you’re new to using chainsaws and wearing chainsaw trousers, you might need a little bit if help understanding what you should be looking for in a good pair. Fear not, as this helpful guide will fill some of blanks for you. Let’s begin. The difference between Type A and Type C chainsaw trousers The main purpose of chainsaw trousers is to stop you from being cut by the chainsaw. They also offer some protection against being cut by the debris created by the chainsaw, for example flying wood chips. Chainsaw trousers come in three classes and two types

Cheap drill bits do not cut well when they are brand new and don’t cut cleanly either. It will make the job slower and more difficult. It can be challenging to identify if a cheap drill bit is doing a good job because they can work great on lighter materials. Once you go to use it on the heavier stuff, however, you will run into an array of issues that will frustrate you. PPE (Personal Protective Equipment)

Alternative options

Available in 3 sizes- short 35”, regular 37”, and long 40”, and also in 3 different colours, the Forester chainsaw trousers are also waterproof and oil resistant, which is important because some oil and chemicals can damage the inner safety fibres in these kinds of pants and leave them not as effective, so it’s good to have that protective outer layer. You may have to pay more than the cheaper or disposable options on the market, but you will be thankful if a near miss or accident occurs and it was your PPE that reduced or avoided the injury. Work Boots Husqvarna are a trusted name in this industry and for good reason. They have years of expertise when it comes to making protective clothing for forestry and can be relied upon to always deliver outstanding quality. These chainsaw trousers are no different, with a level of workmanship that is hard to beat.

Type A chainsaw trousers are generally sufficient for amateur gardening. Essentially, they are intended for static work at ground level, such as trimming bushes and low branches from trees and also cutting up logs. That probably covers everything the average gardener is going to want to do. If, however, you’re planning on undertaking aerial work, such as proper tree surgery, then you really need Type C chainsaw trousers as this is a lot riskier. Chainsaw trouser material For higher quality, you have to pay a premium, such is the way of the world. However, while these chainsaw trousers are 30-50 pounds more expensive than our other reviewed products, you really do get what you pay for, and that is a superior product. Type C Chainsaw Trousers are essential for anyone who regularly uses a chainsaw, whether it be for work or leisure purposes. The extra keprotec reinforcement on the front side and inside leg area of the trousers gives full protection to the whole of the leg. In addition to this, the inside lining of the trousers are made of high quality functional fibres to ensure that there is no way of you injuring yourself.

Tools You Should Never Buy Cheaply

At less than a kilogram in weight, you hardly feel like you are wearing these chainsaw trousers at all and the padded protection covers all of the front and sides of the leg well and they would cover even the widest of thighs easily. If you’re looking for something a bit different then Oregon 2-Handed Protection Chainsaw Gloves Large is a great suggestion. Or even Oregon Forestry Helmet with Ear Defenders & Visor
