The Bullard GenVX (GVX) is a Type CE continuous-flow supplied air respirator engineered for abrasive blasting and surface preparation environments where maximum respiratory and upper-body protection is required.
This configuration features the 38″ Blast Cape (38VX) for extended torso and shoulder coverage, along with the HC2400 Hot/Cold Climate Control Tube, allowing the operator to heat or cool the incoming air supply to maintain comfort through extreme temperature job conditions.
With an Assigned Protection Factor (APF) of 1,000, the GenVX provides high-level respiratory safety, while the Z87+ rated high-impact face shield protects against high-velocity abrasive rebound.
