# Items in Your Cart:Tree Climbing Safety Gear
Tree climbing with a full compliment of safety gear shows your customers and employees that you are serious about doing the job right and preserving everyone's safety. Tree climbing injuries are very unforgiving, and a few dollars spent on safety gear and standards could prevent thousands in medical bills and lost productivity. Every climber should own and use at least a helmet, chaps, eye and hearing protection, and gloves.
The ISA has teamed up with business owner and ANSI to bring you the Z133 2006 safety standards for arboriculture operations. The 2006 ANSI standards should be required reading for every owner and operator of a tree company. The standards are very clear, and written to be practical and easy to put into place. The standards are the result of cooperation between top tree companies and bodies like the ISA so you can rely on this information to be field-tested and written with the best interests of the business owner and tree worker in mind.
Perhaps the most essential piece of climbing safety gear, a good helmet is a priceless investment. Unlike hard hats, climbing helmets protect against impact from all sides. We have Petzl, Kong, Pacific, and Kask helmets for use climbing trees.
“Headache!” Hard hats protect the user from impact from the top only, and are absolutely essential safety gear for ground workers. (Tree climbers run the additional risk of impact from the sides and should use a climbing helmet in the tree.)
Protect your eyes against chain saw dust, debris, and branches. Safety glasses, mesh goggles, and mesh screens are available, including the popular Bug Eyez mesh goggles.
We have ear plugs and ear muffs for use around chainsaws and machinery. Hard-shelled ear muffs offer the highest protection, and ear-plugs offer protection without extra bulk. Helmet ear muffs available.
Kevlar fibers woven in these top-quality chainsaw chaps are designed to stop the chain before the leg is injured. These chaps meet the highest standards, and are available in two styles and three sizes.
The best way to pickup all the required safety equipment for a tree climber or ground worker at one time with a substantial savings. Each kit contains helmet or hard hat, chaps, eye protection, hearing protection, and gloves.
Rope handling gloves, tough leather work gloves, inexpensive latex palm gloves, and Youngstown work gloves can all be found here.
First aid and safety materials are essential in a potential emergency. Arborist first aid kits, bloodstoppers, and materials like signs, tape, chipper flags and safety cones are found here.
