3M Virtua AP Safety Glasses 11818-00000-20 – Clear Anti-Fog, Anti-Scratch Lens, 1 Pair
The 3M Virtua AP Protective Eyewear 11818-00000-20 is a pair of clear, wraparound polycarbonate safety glasses with an anti-fog and anti-scratch lens coating, sold here as a single pair.
Virtua AP is 3M's economy line: one-piece lens, integrated side shields and contoured temples, at a price that lets a shop hand a pair to every visitor and helper. It is not a sealed goggle and does not stop fine dust or splash from reaching the eye around the frame; for wet grinding and polishing spray, use a sealed goggle or a face shield over these.

What These Glasses Are Not For
Not a replacement for a sealed goggle where water spray, slurry or fine airborne dust is the hazard, and not a face shield for grinding or chipping. Not available as a prescription or over-the-glasses fit. Anti-fog coating slows fogging but does not eliminate it in hot, humid wet-shop conditions.
Who Is This For?
Fabrication shops and installers who need low-cost, Z87.1-rated clear safety glasses for daily wear, templating, dry cutting and job-site visits, and who want the anti-fog lens for warm California shop days.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these ANSI Z87.1 rated?
Yes. 3M states the Virtua AP meets the ANSI/ISEA Z87.1-2020 impact-rated protector requirements and CSA Z94.3.
Is the lens anti-fog?
Yes. The 11818-00000-20 has both anti-fog and anti-scratch coatings on a clear polycarbonate lens. Other Virtua AP models differ (gray lens, uncoated lens), so match the 3M number.
Do I get one pair or a case?
One pair. 3M's part number ends in -20 because it ships 20 pairs per case; Obsidian Industrial sells them by the pair.
Will they fit over prescription glasses?
No. Virtua AP is a standard spectacle fit. 3M's over-the-glasses models are a different line.
Do they block UV?
Yes. 3M states the lens absorbs 99.9% of UVA and UVB.
