Protecting personnel in the field is our top priority. We supply high-voltage gloves and insulation mats designed to safeguard workers from electrical hazards. These safety products are crucial for ensuring the well-being of individuals operating in high-risk areas, providing the necessary protection against electrical shocks and burns.

Proper illumination is vital for safety and productivity in hazardous environments. We offer a variety of hazardous location lighting solutions, including LED floods and high bay fixtures, suitable for all classes of hazardous areas. These lighting options are designed to withstand the rigors of oil and gas operations, providing reliable and efficient illumination in challenging conditions.

We maintain a comprehensive inventory of explosion-proof plugs and receptacles, catering to various amp requirements, certification classes, and locking mechanisms. Whether you need twist-lock connectors or specific certifications, we can provide the necessary components to ensure safe and reliable electrical connections on oil rigs and refineries.

Our locations carry explosion-proof paneling designed to protect electrical panels and hardware in hazardous environments. Constructed from durable materials such as sand-cast iron or copper, these panels and junction boxes are built to withstand the toughest conditions, ensuring the safety and integrity of your electrical systems.

Harsh environments demand robust equipment. We stock Type P Rig Cables and CLX Cables, specifically designed for offshore and onshore drilling rigs. These cables are engineered to handle extreme weather, corrosion, stress, and drilling operations, meeting the strictest industry standards and approvals.
