Safety Equipment & Gear

Collection: Safety Equipment & Gear

Safety equipment and gear protect eyes, ears, lungs, and hands on the job site, from eye protection and hearing protection to respiratory protection and hard hats. The Tool Nut carries safety gear built to keep tradespeople protected without slowing them down. Browse the newest arrivals in our New Tools collection.

Jobsite PPE From Head to Hands

Most of the safety equipment and gear here comes from Milwaukee and Klein Tools, with Festool, ISOtunes, CLC, FastCap, Blaklader, and Veto Pro Pac filling specific needs. The lineup runs from hard hats and BOLT accessories to cut-rated gloves, Bluetooth hearing protection, KN95 and reusable masks, and Milwaukee PACKOUT first aid kits that lock into a tool stack. Choose gear by the hazard on the task in front of you, then by comfort, because PPE only works when it stays on all day.

Head Protection

Head protection is the largest group. Alongside Milwaukee and Klein hard hats, it carries BOLT visors and face shields, cooling liners, sweat bands, beanies, and balaclavas so a helmet stays comfortable in heat and cold.

Hand Protection

Hand protection runs from Milwaukee Impact Cut Level 5 leather gloves and demolition gloves to Klein cold weather gloves, CLC dip-coated packs, and FastCap SKINS. Browse all work gloves by style.

High Visibility Gear

High visibility gear leans on Veto Pro Pac Hi-Viz tool bags, backpacks, and meter bags in yellow or orange, plus hi-vis beanies and gaiters from Milwaukee, Klein, and Blaklader.

Eye Protection

Eye protection is mostly Milwaukee safety glasses and goggles. Pick by lens: clear indoors, tinted or mirrored outside, yellow in low light, magnified for close work, and gasketed for dust.

Ear Protection

Ear protection covers Milwaukee foam, flanged, and corded earplugs and BOLT earmuffs, plus Bluetooth earbuds from Milwaukee, Festool, Klein, and ISOtunes. Compare ratings in hearing protection.

Face Protection

Face protection holds masks and respirators: Milwaukee 2-layer and 3-layer reusable masks, KN95 disposable packs, and Klein P100 and Stealth half-mask respirators with replacement filters.

Safety Equipment & Gear FAQ

What PPE should every worker have?

A basic kit is safety glasses, hearing protection, work gloves, and a dust mask, plus a hard hat on sites with overhead work. Add a first aid kit per truck or crew. Your task and site rules decide what else is required.

Earplugs, earmuffs, or Bluetooth earbuds?

Earplugs are cheap and fit under helmets and respirators. Earmuffs go on and off fast for intermittent noise. Bluetooth earbuds sold as hearing protection add calls and music. Regular consumer earbuds do not protect hearing.

Disposable mask or reusable respirator?

KN95 disposables suit short dusty tasks. For long sanding, demolition, or cutting masonry, a fitted half-mask respirator with P100 filters seals better and lasts longer. Pair either with dust extraction on the tool.

Which first aid kit fits a small crew?

Milwaukee PACKOUT kits come in Class A versions for smaller crews and Class B versions with more supplies for larger sites. Both lock into a PACKOUT stack so the kit travels with the tools.
