About this deal

At less than a kilogram in weight, you hardly feel like you are wearing these chainsaw trousers at all and the padded protection covers all of the front and sides of the leg well and they would cover even the widest of thighs easily. 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. Comprised of the same six layer material that their equally excellent Yukon chainsaw trousers are made of, they offer a very good level of protection while still being flexible and easy to move around in.

Type B chainsaw safety trousers are almost similar to Type A. The only difference is that type B trousers have a bit more protection coverage on the left leg. Yes, they are chaps but they still cover your legs, or at least a good portion of them, so for the sake of argument, they are now chainsaw trousers, and for the money they are a good pair too. For a budget option where demands are lower, then the Solidur Expedition chainsaw trousersare worthy of your consideration. This lesser known brand attracts a lower price tag than similar spec trousers from some of the bigger brand equivalents.

is the largest provider of STEM education and careers support in the UK. Their STEM Ambassadors programme sees volunteers representing Records of the issue of any PPE should be kept by the employer. This should record the detail of any PPE issued, including manufacturer, size, serial numbers where applicable, and signed acceptance of that PPE by the employee. Chainsaw helmets should be marked with date of issue. Records of PPE issue can help refute claims for compensation, prove that the company is taking its responsibilities seriously and can identify unreasonable repeated issue resulting from abuse or careless loss of that equipment. Maintenance Radios – Communication is vital in tree surgery, especially between the climber and the ground crew and radios are a valuable resource. They need to be weatherproof, durable and easy to operate.

PPE is defined as “all equipment which is intended to be worn or held by a person at work which protects them against one or more risks to their health and safety.” PPE includes the obvious elements of chainsaw protective trousers and boots etc, head, hearing and eye protection as well as climbing equipment, ropes, harness and karabiners etc. Ensure any PPE you buy is ‘CE’ marked and complies with the requirements of the Personal Protective Equipment Regulations 2002. The CE marking signifies that the PPE satisfies certain basic safety requirements and in some cases will have been tested and certified by an independent body. As the name implies SWS cut resistant dungarees are chainsaw trousers that are KWF certified to EN 381-5 level. This means that they have been thoroughly tested by the German Center for Forest Work and Technology, so you can be sure of their reliability and safety standard.At 1.27kg these chaps are light enough so as not to bother you or restrict movement too much and you won’t feel like you’re wearing something that wasn’t meant to be worked in, which I often feel about low cost protective clothing. Also consider whether you’ll be using them occasionally or daily. If only occasionally, prioritising comfort over durability is an option – whereas for heavy duty daily use in a rough environment, durability is key if you’re wanting a decent wear life out of your chainsaw trousers.

Axes and Splitting Mauls– These are among the earliest tools used to fell trees, nowadays replaced by chain saws, they are still useful for splitting logs for firewood or removing brush from the bottom of tree trunks. Chainsaw safety trousers consist of a tough outer layer with several fibre layers beneath. The number of layers depends on the class of protection the pants provide.

All together there are 5 layers to these trousers which is more than you usually see with this kind of lower cost product. These extra layers means that the material can be lighter while still offering good protection, and this adds to how comfortable they are to wear. Recommended: Certificates for other skills and machines. Arboricultural knowledge e.g. National Certificates and Diplomas in Arboriculture.
