Z87+ definition

Z87+ means that the safety glasses are impact-rated. ANSI tests safety glasses by shooting a ¼-inch steel ball at 102 mph at the lens and dropping a 1.1 lb. pointed weight from 50 inches on the lens. If the lens breaks in either test, it will not have the “Z87+” marking. Safety glasses with just the “Z87” marking are not impact-rated.
