GUIDE TO TEMPLE MARKINGS
Fields(s) of use (where applicable)
None General Use
3 Liquid droplets or splashes Certification Mark
4 Large dust particles < 5 μm
5 Gases and small dust particles < 5 μm
F 166
8 Short circuit electric arc
9 Molten metal and hot solids

Mechanical Strength
Number of the EN Standard
S Increased strength
Riley identity
F Low energy impact, resists a 6mm, 0.86g ball at 45m/s
B Medium energy impact, resists a 6mm, 0.86g ball at 120m/s
If protection against high-speed particles at extreme temperatures is required then the selected safety eyewear
A High energy impact, resists a 6mm, 0.86g ball at 190m/s product should be marked with the letter T immediately after the ‘Mechanical Strength’ letter; eg: FT, BT or AT.
If the ‘Mechanical Strength’ letter is not followed by the letter T, the safety eyewear product shall only be used
against high-speed particles at an ambient temperature.
If the frame and lens display different certification marks (F,B or A), the lowest level should be assigned to
the entire safety eyewear product.
