Who should be using Ampco Safety Tools?
There are many standards and recommendations that have been published by organizations such as OSHA (Occupational Health & Safety Administration), MSHA (Mine Safety & Health Administration) and NFPA (National Fire Protection Agency) that require the use of non-sparking tools in various environments. (Please see the “Standards” section of this web-site for more information.) Increasingly, many companies are using non-sparking tools even when there is no mandatory requirement for such a product. Basically anyone who is concerned about sparks igniting flammable vapors, liquids, dusts or residues should be using Ampco Safety Tools.
