Protective Footwear
Steel toe vs composite toe β what's the difference?
Steel toe: heavier, conducts temperature, triggers metal detectors. Composite toe (carbon/Kevlar/fiberglass): ~30% lighter, non-conductive, airport/MRI safe. Both meet the same ASTM F2413 protection level. Choose composite for workers passing metal detectors or in cold environments.
