Find professional safety equipment for construction, installation, maintenance, fabrication, woodworking, and jobsite use at Slim’s Power Tools.
We serve contractors, tradespeople, facilities teams, installers, maintenance professionals, and serious DIY customers across Oʻahu and Maui. Our Honolulu and Kahului teams can help you compare available head protection, protective eyewear, work gloves, fall-protection equipment, respirators, hearing protection, knee pads, first-aid kits, and other jobsite-safety products.
Slim’s inventory includes safety equipment from Safewaze, LIFT Safety, PIP, ERB Safety, Milwaukee, 3M, Ergodyne, Custom Leathercraft, Hultafors, and other manufacturers.
Product types, sizes, ratings, colors, and quantities may differ between stores. Final equipment selection should reflect the hazard, user, jobsite requirements, and manufacturer instructions.
Slim’s carries Safewaze fall-protection equipment for roofing, construction, maintenance, elevated work, and other approved applications.
The inventory includes full-body harnesses, energy-absorbing lanyards, self-retracting lifelines, personal retractables, roof and concrete anchors, connectors, carabiners, trauma-relief straps, roofing kits, and tool tethers.
Fall protection must be planned as a complete system. The harness, anchorage, connector, fall clearance, working position, user, equipment compatibility, and rescue plan all affect proper selection.
Find head protection for construction, industrial work, maintenance, installation, and other environments where overhead or impact hazards may be present.
Slim’s carries traditional hard hats and modern safety-helmet configurations from LIFT Safety, ERB Safety, and Milwaukee. Available products include full-brim and cap-style designs, ratchet suspensions, high-visibility colors, vented and nonvented models, chin straps, and compatible accessories.
Confirm the required protection type, class, brim style, ventilation, suspension, accessory compatibility, and jobsite requirements before purchasing.
Shop protective eyewear for cutting, drilling, grinding, fastening, demolition, electrical work, maintenance, and general jobsite use.
Slim’s inventory includes clear, smoke, mirrored, indoor/outdoor, anti-fog, and full-frame safety glasses from LIFT Safety, PIP, and Milwaukee.
Safety glasses should be selected according to the impact, particle, dust, light, chemical, and electrical hazards involved. Some tasks may also require goggles or additional face protection.
Find gloves for construction, demolition, material handling, cutting, fastening, maintenance, and general jobsite work.
Slim’s carries PIP MaxiFlex and MaxiCut gloves, along with Milwaukee cut-level, nitrile-dipped, leather, demolition, and high-visibility work gloves.
The right glove depends on the required grip, dexterity, fit, and protection against cuts, abrasions, punctures, impact, moisture, heat, chemicals, or other hazards. No single glove is suitable for every task.
Slim’s inventory includes disposable N95 respirators from 3M and Milwaukee.
Respiratory protection must be selected for the specific airborne hazard and working environment. A disposable N95 respirator is not approved for every dust, vapor, gas, chemical, or oxygen-deficient atmosphere.
Confirm the contaminant, required protection level, fit requirements, valve preference, use conditions, and workplace respiratory-protection procedures before purchasing.
Find earplugs and compatible helmet-mounted hearing protection for jobsites, workshops, cutting, drilling, demolition, and other high-noise environments.
Slim’s inventory includes Milwaukee earplugs and LIFT Safety hearing-protection accessories for select helmet systems.
Selection should reflect the workplace noise level, required attenuation, communication needs, comfort, and compatibility with other PPE.
Slim’s carries knee pads and kneeling products for flooring, concrete work, carpentry, installation, maintenance, and tasks performed close to the ground.
Available products include foam, gel, flooring, hinged, airflow, and heavy-duty knee protection from Custom Leathercraft, Hultafors, LIFT Safety, and other manufacturers.
Compare the working surface, fit, mobility, padding, fastening system, and frequency of use when choosing knee protection.
Cooling towels, skull caps, and headbands can help support workers in hot jobsite conditions.
Slim’s inventory includes cooling products from Ergodyne and Milwaukee. These products should be used as part of a broader heat-safety plan that may also include hydration, rest periods, shade, ventilation, and acclimatization.
Slim’s carries first-aid kits designed for different workforce sizes and workplace needs, including 10-person and 25-person options.
The inventory also includes caution and reinforced safety tape for identifying restricted or hazardous areas. Warning tape provides a visual notice but does not replace required barricades, guardrails, signs, or access-control systems.

A fall-protection system may include a properly fitted harness, approved anchorage, compatible connecting equipment, sufficient fall clearance, equipment inspection, and a site-specific rescue plan.
Components should not be combined based only on appearance. Confirm compatibility between the harness, lanyard or retractable, connectors, anchorage, and other system components.
Contact Slim’s with information about the work, connection type, anchorage conditions, user, and required equipment. Final system design and approval should follow the manufacturer’s instructions and the project’s qualified safety personnel.
Safety equipment should fit the individual user and work correctly with all other required PPE.
Safety glasses should not prevent a respirator from sealing correctly. Helmet-mounted hearing protection should be approved for the specific head-protection system. Gloves should allow the user to maintain safe control of tools and materials. Harnesses should be correctly sized and adjusted.
Inspect PPE according to the manufacturer’s instructions before use. Remove equipment from service when required because of damage, impact, contamination, excessive wear, failed inspection, missing identification, expiration, or uncertainty about its condition.
Do not alter or repair safety equipment unless the manufacturer specifically permits the modification or repair.
