Guardian Pro™ Safety Rebar Cap: Impalement Protection for Construction Sites

Product Overview

Exposed rebar on a construction site is a significant safety hazard, posing a serious risk of impalement, lacerations, and other injuries. The Guardian Pro™ Safety Rebar Cap is your first line of defense, designed to provide critical protection by covering the sharp, exposed ends of steel reinforcing bars. Engineered for superior safety and durability, our rebar caps help you meet OSHA compliance standards and ensure a safer working environment for your entire crew.

Key Features & Benefits

• Superior Impalement Protection: The mushroom-style design with a wide, impact-absorbing surface effectively mitigates the risk of impalement injuries from vertical rebar, and reduces the severity of horizontal impacts.
• High Visibility Safety Color: Manufactured in bright, OSHA-compliant safety orange or yellow, ensuring maximum visibility even in low-light conditions, alerting workers to potential hazards.
• Rugged, Weather-Resistant Material: Constructed from durable, UV-stabilized high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic that withstands harsh weather conditions, extreme temperatures, and general wear and tear, ensuring long-lasting performance.
• Versatile Fit for Multiple Rebar Sizes: Designed with a conical interior and flexible ribs to securely grip a wide range of common rebar diameters, typically fitting #3 to #8 (10mm to 25mm) rebar without tools.
• Quick & Easy Installation: Simply press the cap firmly onto the exposed rebar end. No special tools or training required, allowing for rapid deployment across your job site.
• Reusable & Cost-Effective: Made to endure, these caps can be easily removed and reused on multiple projects, offering a cost-efficient solution for ongoing site safety management.
• OSHA Compliant: Helps contractors and site managers comply with OSHA regulations regarding the guarding of protruding rebar ends (specifically OSHA 1926.701(b)), reducing potential fines and enhancing site safety records.
• Prevents Scrapes & Lacerations: Beyond impalement, the smooth, rounded surface eliminates sharp edges, preventing minor cuts, scrapes, and snagging of clothing.
