Safety Notice is issued to inform you that MSA recently received a report from CSA that samples of our Nuevo Wrap Safety Glasses did not pass CSA side impact testing. These samples were tested as part of routine CSA oversight of the manufacturer.
MSA has investigated and determined that Nuevo Wrap Safety Glasses shipped by MSA from October 17, 2017 through April 16, 2018 are affected. These affected glasses may not withstand a side impact force of the magnitude required for CSA certification.
Please note that the Nuevo Wrap Safety Glass samples tested by CSA passed all other test requirements, including front impact.
Identifying and Addressing Affected MSA Nuevo Wrap Safety Glasses
MSA Nuevo Wrap Safety Glasses are sold as MSA part number 10106385. They are wide, wrap- style safety glasses with gray lenses, black frames and gray rubber pads for the nose and along the bottom of the stems. The stem for the right ear has the MSA logo printed on it.
Because there is no date code on the glasses, MSA recommends that any Nuevo Wrap Safety Glasses in your possession be considered as affected unless you have positive identification that the glasses were delivered by MSA prior to October 17, 2017.
Stop use of the affected glasses, remove them from service, render them unusable and dispose of them. Click here to download the safety notice.
Thanks for the share, SS!
