Honeywell Uvex Bionic Face Shield with Clear Polycarbonate Visor and Anti-Fog/Hard Coat (S8510)

This face shield offers excellent protection with its clear polycarbonate visor. The anti-fog and hard coat treatments are a definite plus, ensuring clear vision and durability. The Bionic design is comfortable and lightweight, making it easy to wear for extended periods. While a bit pricier than some options, the quality and features justify the cost.

Very comfortable fit, changing shields is quite easy, the shield does not fog up at all during the past two weeks that I have used it, there is no part of the shield that blocks your peripheral vision on the sides or front of your face. Wouldn’t hesitate recommending this to anyone looking for a good shield.

I'm a retired machinist with over 25 years running all sorts of machines. Because of this I've used all sorts of different face protection. I'm now getting into wood turning and even though I knew I needed a face shield I had been putting it off. I had neck surgery about 5 yrs. ago so my neck isn't as strong as it used to be so I've been putting off getting a face shield. Until I had a 3" inch long piece of wood come out of a piece of Willow I was turning and stuck in my hair. It just missed sticking me in the face and happened so fast I didn't even see it. That's when I decided it was time to get that face shield. After a lot of looking I picked this one. The clear part wraps around the front to the sides far enough to give a good wide angle view. The bottom of it dips down far enough to cover the throat area and the top curves up and back giving protection from flying pieces from the front. The head gear for holding it is far better than the usual face shields have. The Head Band has a dial at the back that you push in and turn to tighten or loosen it. It also has padding in the front and back. I might add more to the front in the summer for a sweat band but for now its OK. The band going over the top has the usual hole and pin adjustment. The hinges on the side can be adjusted to set the face shield closer or further away from your face and that's really nice. Its something that I haven't seen on any of the other face shields I've used. When it came it had protective plastic film on both sides of the clear face shield that I had to peel off. It's a bit difficult to get the shield into the shell so to keep from getting finger prints on the face shield, and possibly scratching it, I only peeled the plastic film cover back about half an inch to a inch from the edges. Then mounted it in the shell before I finished peeling the protective film off the face shield. This Face Shield is pretty light compared to a lot of the others but it's still heavy enough to notice. Since I've had my neck operated on I can only stand to wear this for a few minutes at a time. I'm hoping that as I continue to use it my neck will get stronger and it wont be so hard to keep it on. The only thing that would make it even better would be having some pieces of protective film to put on the face shield to help keep it from getting scratched. Then when they get too dirty to see through just peel them off and put on a new one. I've seen these for the Trend Airshield Pro. I might try some of those for this face shield. Overall I think this is about the best face shield/face protection you can get without going to a full helmet setup. I have no problem with giving this a recommendation for anybody that's looking for face protection while running a lathe, a line trimmer outside, a bench grinder/cutoff saw, or any of the other things that you could need good protection for your face.

I have only just put it together, and have not actually worn it in battle yet! However, the first impressions are that it is light and very comfortable indeed. It almost seems too light, as to be effective should it get a large strike, eg exploding grinding disk. However, I have to trust that it has been rated correctly, so without a destructive test, I have no option than to believe it would offer said protection. The adjustments are good, and wearing glasses/goggles are no problem. I do however, question that the manufacturer states quite clearly that this is a secondary protection device, and that safety glasses/goggles must also be worn underneath (which many it seems do not judging by the various reports). I would have thought that the shield should be able to be worn as an alternative to goggles, as a means to protect not JUST the eyes, but also the face. Why should goggles also be worn, if indeed the shield is capable of doing its job? But, better safe than sorry huh, thats why we are 'here' looking at buying such items! I also purchased a replacement visor, so that if the supplied one needs replacing for any reason, I would be left without one while I wait for delivery. I suggest that you always keep a spare in stock. The only other concern I really have is, the cracking of the polycarbonate visor itself. This is a worry. If stress/ageing fracturing occurs naturally after a short time, as some reports say, then what does this mean to the integrity of the visor if it is struck by something hard, and if it is "aged"? I would like to see some testing done, and any concerns allayed by the manufacturer. As a matter of interest, I bought some safety glasses from China (NOT on Amazon), which ended up in the bin. They looked great, but when I tried bending the lens in my hands, they shattered into shards of plastic, like little daggers. Horrifying! Anyway, bottom line, the Bionic Face Shield fits very nicely, doesn't appear to fog easily, light and not cumbersome. The price seems somewhat high, especially the replacement visors which are ridiculously expensive really, but then, if they save your face (if), whats that worth to you? Hope this helps.

Excellent product. Crystal clear, does not fog when using a face mask under shield. Dust and particles from grinding wiped off easily and did not scratch. The headset is comfortable and the shield flips up easily. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality and would definitely buy again.

Where was this 20 years ago! This shield is awesome! I have glasses so finding safety glasses is impossible. I purchased this for metal work and it is fantastic. I plan on ordering another so both my wife and I can work together as this will be perfect for most activities that required protection from flying debris such as metal work, wood work, or grass trimming. The face shield is comfortable, light, and vision is not limited.

Great shield, well some says this is overkill but what is overkill when safety is concern? I always gets saw dust in my eyes and I wonder will I be able to see when I get older

very good product, doesn't fog at all, very comfortable on the head.
