708381SS Stainless Steel Wall-Mount Eyewash Features
The Global Industrial 708381SS is the all-stainless version of our wall-mounted emergency eyewash station. Pipe, fittings, push handle, stay-open ball valve and the 11-3/8 inch bowl are stainless steel, which suits corrosive chemical rooms, plating and battery areas, cleanrooms and wash-down spaces where a plastic bowl or painted galvanized pipe would degrade. One push of the handle opens the ball valve and keeps both flip-top spray heads flowing hands-free at 5.15 gallons per minute.
The unit meets ANSI Z358.1-2014 and ships with an eyewash gauge, plumber's tape and an ANSI identification sign. It weighs 9 pounds and is covered by a 1-year limited warranty.

Frequently Asked Questions
When does a stainless steel eyewash make more sense than the galvanized 708381?
Choose the 708381SS where the station itself is exposed to corrosive vapor or splash, or where the area is washed down. Its pipe, fittings, stay-open ball valve, handle and 11-3/8 inch bowl are all stainless steel, so there is no plastic bowl or painted galvanized pipe to degrade. The galvanized 708381 is the lower-cost choice for dry industrial areas.
What comes in the box with the 708381SS?
An eyewash gauge and plumber's tape are included, along with an ANSI-compliant identification sign. Wall anchors and the water supply connection are not included; a licensed plumber should make the connection to local code.
What flow and pressure does the 708381SS need?
The station is rated at 5.15 gallons per minute through two spray heads at a 30 psi flowing supply pressure, which is above the ANSI Z358.1-2014 minimum of 0.4 gallons per minute for 15 minutes.
