Safety Vests & Hard Hats

Safety Vests & Hard Hats

Whether the crew is working near traffic, around moving equipment, or on a busy jobsite, being seen and protected comes first. Fasteners Plus carries hi-vis safety vests in lime and orange, adjustable hard hats in several colors and pack sizes, and the cones, cone holders, and warning triangles that round out a vehicle or jobsite safety kit. Choose the vest class, closure style, and hard hat that match the work and your employer's safety program.

Hi-Vis Safety Vests

Hi-vis vests make workers easier to spot in traffic, around equipment, and in low light. The vests in this collection are lightweight polyester mesh with reflective striping, available in lime and orange and in sizes from medium to 2XL, with a one-size-fits-most option.

• Class 2 lime vests: The Lime Reflective Safety Vest is listed as meeting ANSI/ISEA 107-2015 Type R, Class 2. It has 2" silver reflective stripes over the shoulders and around the waist, a front zipper, a hook-and-loop chest pocket, and a wide inside patch pocket. It comes in medium, large, XL, and 2XL, with a 10-pack option for crews.
• Class 2 orange vests with zipper: The Orange Class 2 Reflective Safety Vest with Zipper offers the same high-visibility look in orange.
• Class 2 breakaway vests: The Orange Class 2 Breakaway Vest and its XL version have a 5-point breakaway system with hook-and-loop releases at the shoulders, sides, and front, designed to release if the vest is caught or pulled. A rear D-ring slot accommodates fall protection harnesses.
• Orange mesh vest: The Orange Mesh Reflective Safety Vest is a one-size-fits-most option with a hook-and-loop front and elasticized sides. Its product page states it is not ANSI or CSA certified and is intended for visibility where certification is not required, such as general labor and support roles.

Hard Hats

Hard hats in this collection use an adjustable ratchet-style suspension for a secure fit. The Blue Hard Hat has a molded plastic shell, a rear adjustment knob that works with gloves, and a cloth-coated foam pad at the front. Its page lists ANSI Z89.1 Class C, E, G, Type 1 and OSHA requirements. The Lime Green Hi Vis Hard Hat adds high-visibility color to an adjustable ratchet design. For crews, visitors, and vendors, the White Adjustable Hard Hat 16-Pack has high-density polyethylene shells, a 4-point ratchet suspension, and rain troughs, in a standard jobsite color that is easy to keep stocked.

Traffic Cones, Cone Holders, and Warning Triangles

Vests and hard hats are part of a larger safety setup. The 18" Orange Traffic Cone is a one-piece cone for temporary hazard marking, crowd control, and light-duty traffic guidance in construction zones, parking lots, and maintenance areas. Its page states it meets MUTCD specifications. The Traffic Cone Holder is a powder-coated steel holder for service trucks, utility fleets, and roadside crews that holds up to ten 18" cones or five 28" cones. The Safety/Emergency Triangles set of 3 comes in a polypropylene case, and the page lists each triangle as meeting or exceeding FMVSS 125 (571.125) and FMCSR 393.95 requirements.

How to Choose Safety Vests and Hard Hats

• Vest class and standard: Class 2 vests are listed for roadside work, construction zones, and industrial environments. The right class depends on the work environment and your employer's safety program, so confirm the requirement before ordering.
• Color: Lime and orange are the high-visibility options here. Your site or contract may specify one.
• Closure style: Zipper vests suit everyday wear, hook-and-loop fronts are quick on and off, and breakaway vests are built to release if snagged.
• Fall protection compatibility: The breakaway vest has a rear D-ring slot for fall protection harnesses. Review the harness manufacturer's guidance for your setup.
• Hard hat standard and class: Check the markings on each hard hat and the product page for the standard it meets. Match the type and class to your site's hazards and requirements.
• Quantity: Multi-packs of vests and hard hats help crews, visitors, and vendors stay covered.

PPE requirements vary by employer, site, and work environment. Review OSHA requirements, ANSI/ISEA 107 for hi-vis apparel, and ANSI Z89.1 for head protection, or consult a qualified safety professional, to confirm what applies to your crew.

Safety Vest and Hard Hat FAQs

What does ANSI Class 2 mean on a safety vest?

ANSI/ISEA 107 is the standard for high-visibility safety apparel, and Class 2 is one of its performance classes. Which class you need depends on your work environment and your employer's safety program, so confirm the requirement for your job.

What is a breakaway safety vest?

A breakaway vest uses releases, such as the hook-and-loop closures on the breakaway vests here, that are designed to come apart if the vest is caught or pulled.

Are all of these vests ANSI certified?

No. The lime, orange zipper, and breakaway vests list ANSI/ISEA 107-2015 Type R, Class 2. The orange mesh vest page states it is not ANSI or CSA certified. Check each product page.

Which hard hat should I choose?

Look at the standard and class marked on the hat and listed on the product page, and match them to the hazards on your site. Review ANSI Z89.1 and your site's requirements, or ask your safety manager.
