Our safety shields are simple and quick to install, requiring no tools.
Sureband Clear safety shields are attached by simply wrapping around the outside flange diameter, using the industrial strength Velcro strips at each end to hold tight in place.
Multiple flange diameters can be accommodated with single Sureband Clear shield sizes (please see our sizing sheet PDF)
Sureband Steel is held to the flange using a quick-release clamp connection. Simply wrap the shield around the outside flange diameter, aligning so that the central 'crimped' mesh sits centrally in the ridge between flange edges. Then insert the end with the four slots in-between the mesh and band at the other end.
Clamp the hook down on into the slot that provides enough tension to hold the shield in place (not the slot with the tightest possible fit).
Two pull-cords run parallel to the length of the outside of the flange. Two Velcro tabs sit at each end of the shield, these are to be used only to keep the shield in place while the cords are being tightened.
First, wrap the shield tightly around the flange. The two Velcro tabs fasten together to close the shield and hold it in place, ready for tightening of the cords.
On one side of the shield, bring the cord together and pull tight, wrap the cords around the pipe once, or twice if possible, then tie a square or reef knot only (i.e. a knot which does not release under pressure). Repeat on the other side of the shield with the other cord. Do not cut the cords but tuck them between the flange and shield.
We have two shield designs, technical fabric and stainless steel. Both allow quick and simple install and removal without tools.
