OEM anti-static oilfield safety boots with acid, alkali, oil and slip resistance for industrial, chemical and energy workplaces.

Why should the environment related to oil be equipped with a pair of chemical-resistant safety shoes? What is the core risk?

There are two types of corrosion damage in oil fields, which are highly similar to the acid washing conditions in chemical industries:

1. Crude oil, diesel, engine oil, hydrocarbon organic solvents corrosion: Ordinary PU / cowhide, ordinary rubber will expand, soften, peel off, and dissolve the surface layer when exposed to oil products;

2. Oilfield chemical corrosion: Acidification operations involve concentrated hydrochloric acid, corrosion. 

inhibiting strong alkali, demulsifiers, and various chemical additives splashing;

3. Additional explosion-proof requirements: Oil and gas volatilization is prone to static electricity ignition, so anti-static measures must be taken;

4. Mechanical risks: Oil pipes and tools hitting feet, metal debris puncturing, slippery and oily ground on the oil platform.

If you want to provide workers with a pair of truly safe, acid and alkali resistant, solvent resistant, oil-resistant and anti-slip safety boots, you need to have them custom-made at our original factory. The standards it needs to meet are:

Material of each part: 

1. Upper: Butyl anti-corrosion rubber or One-piece PVC acid and alkali resistant rubber, seamless and without pinholes, resistant to concentrated acids, strong alkalis, hydrocarbon solvents, and crude oil without dissolving

   
   

2. Inner lining: Butyl rubber isolation liner, does not absorb corrosive liquids .

3. Insole pad: Anti-corrosion rubber foaming, does not rot in oil, acid, or alkali.

4. Midsole: Stainless steel or KEVLAR puncture-resistant layer, resistant to chemicals without rusting and perforation.

5. Steel toe: 65Mn alloy steel toe, outer layer rubber coating to prevent acid and alkali corrosion.

6. Outsole: Special anti-corrosion rubber, oil-resistant FO grade, dual anti-slip, does not expand or separate when immersed in oil or acid and alkali.

If all the above material requirements are met, it will be a pair of chemical-resistant, anti-slip safety shoes that can be worn in any environment related to the oil field. According to the specific environmental requirements of the oil field and the cost budget of the shoes, specific adjustments can be made to the materials of different parts of the shoes.

Conformity level (fully meets the requirements of the oilfield):

1. Basic safety: GB21148-2020 AN1 anti-squeezing, 1100N anti-penetration, SRC anti-slip, FO oil-resistant;

2. Chemical resistance: GB20265-2019 6th level for highest acid and alkali resistance, EN13832 Class II resistance to organic solvents;

3. Optional anti-static (10⁶ to 10⁹ Ω), meeting the mandatory explosion-proof requirements of the oilfield.

For oil-related industries, it is not recommended to use ordinary safety shoes. The materials and protection levels of different parts of the shoes have shortcomings:

1. The upper is made of buffalo leather and ordinary PU synthetic leather, it will peel and dissolve when exposed to strong acids, strong alkalis, and crude oil solvents for several hours.

2. The inner lining is made of ordinary mesh fabric: ordinary textile fabric, which continuously burns the skin due to its absorption of oil and acid or alkali.

3. The sole is made of ordinary double-density PU/soft rubber, it will expand, slip, and peel off when soaked in crude oil for a long time, and has only mild oil resistance but is not resistant to strong acids and strong alkalis.

4. There is no fully sealed anti-permeation structure, and the sewing holes are very prone to allowing chemical liquids to seep in.

Depending on the differences in the material requirements for safety shoes in various working environments, as well as the consideration of the budget cost for purchasing safety shoes, the S2 or S3 or S5 protection grade in the oilfield-related industries can generally meet all the needs. True safety depends on your requirements for quality. When it comes to manufacturing safety shoes, we are experts.

In terms of personalized customization, we have strong production and research capabilities, and can provide diverse options based on customer needs. 

These include various leather materials, different colored inner fabrics, European or Chinese standard steel heels, lightweight plastic heel caps, steel midsoles or Kevlar midsoles, as well as various insoles and shoelaces. 

At the same time, the shoe soles can also be chosen with rubber or PU soles of different patterns to meet the requirements of different working environments for slip resistance, wear resistance or lightness.

As a professional manufacturer of safety shoes, we offer OEM/ODM processing services. from design to production, we provide customers with customized solutions throughout the entire process, ensuring that the products not only meet industry standards but also fully meet the actual usage requirements.

This type of safety boot is widely used in various industrial fields such as power, chemical engineering, petroleum, construction, automotive manufacturing, steel smelting and mechanical manufacturing. Among them, it is particularly popular in the oilfield operation environment. Its excellent protective performance and durability have won the recognition of many workers.
