Oregon Yukon Chainsaw Protective Trousers, Sizes S – 3XL

Product Information

This is why you should always wear a pair of high quality chainsaw trousers ( and chainsaw boots) whenever you are wielding such a tool. Chainsaw trousers usually have a slippery outer layer that prevents superficial or surface deep injuries to the flesh. Underneath this is the second layer which can be made out of Kevlar (the same material used in bulletproof vests) or ballistic nylon. You should consider all protective chainsaw clothing options really. It’s a very serious tool in the wrong hands and even the most experienced users will wear protection. Wear clothing that fits well. Loose clothing or accessories can get caught in a tool’s moving parts, which could result in dire consequences. So, for things like chopping firewood they are perfectly fine, but if you plan to get up on a ladder to take out some overhanging branches, you would be better off with something that offers more all-round protection due to the increased risk of injury. Product 1: Shields the front and left sides of both legs during chainsaw and wood cutting work. Oil, fuel and heat resistant

Product 2: Smooth leather conforms to user’s hands for a natural fit and more dexterity while workingMade of Abrasion-Resistant 2-Way Stretch Polyester Fabric: Chainsaw trousers require durability to protect against cuts from chainsaws. The abrasion-resistant polyester fabric, especially when 2-way stretch, adds flexibility and comfort while maintaining resistance to cuts.

Saying that, even after adjusting the waist on my pair, I still felt that the crotch hung down a little bit too far for my liking. This is the problem with universal, one size fits all style of chainsaw trousers- there are just too many body sizes and shapes out there so you are going to get some discomfort for some people, somewhere along the line. The elasticated waist is helpful for keeping sawdust out of your underwear and so it tends to get trapped behind the bib instead. This is much more preferable for me as I could just slip the braces off my shoulder and empty it out in seconds. Do not use electric tools in wet conditions unless they are approved for that use. If you must work in wet conditions, always ensure you have good balance and are unlikely to slip. Cheaper brands, such as those you would find in high street bargain stores, will have been mass-produced with lower grade materials which allow the low price tag. Though that may sound good for your bank account, you will soon discover you have a tape measure that slices your fingers, screwdrivers that don’t fit in the cross slot of a screw and a hammer grip that is slipping from the handle.The affairs, business and property of the Company are being managed by the Administrators and who act as agents of the Company without personal liability. In conclusion, if you have the extra few quid to spare, I would go with these trousers every day of the week. However, if you are on a tighter budget or just don’t use chainsaws enough to warrant paying a hundred quid, any of the other, cheaper products would more than suffice.
