Overview
The Bullard GR50 is a loose-fitting Nomex grinding hood for grinding, brazing and metalworking. Its washable outer hood covers the head, face and neck, with a flame-retardant cotton inner bib. The flexible hood can accommodate beards, hearing protection, prescription eyewear or safety glasses, while continuous airflow through the neck cuff helps maintain positive pressure inside the hood.

Protection and fit
The GR50 is loose-fitting and does not require individual fit testing. The hood provides ANSI/ISEA Z87.1-2020 Z87+ high-impact face protection. These three configurations do not include a hard hat, so the GR50 hard-hat head-protection claim does not apply to this product.
NIOSH approval applies to the complete Bullard respirator configuration. Match the selected hood, breathing tube, blower or supplied-air components, hose and air source to Bullard's current instructions before use.
