Frequently Asked Questions
What does S1P SRC safety rating mean?
The S1P SRC rating indicates this boot meets multiple safety requirements. S1P includes a 200 Joule impact-resistant toe cap, antistatic properties, energy-absorbing heel, and a penetration-resistant midsole. SRC confirms the boot passes slip resistance tests on both ceramic tile with cleaning agent (SRA) and steel with glycerol (SRB), providing maximum slip protection across various work surfaces.
Does the Timberland Pro Ballast run true to size?
Yes, the Timberland Pro Ballast generally runs true to size according to customer feedback and professional testing. Timberland Pro safety boots are designed with a standard fit that accommodates most foot shapes comfortably. If you have particularly wide feet or require extra room for orthotics, consider ordering a half size up. The removable insole also provides flexibility for custom inserts if needed.
Is the composite toe cap as protective as steel toe?
Absolutely. The composite toe cap in the Ballast is tested to the same 200 Joules impact resistance standard as steel toe caps, meeting EN ISO 20345:2011 requirements. Composite toes offer several advantages including lighter weight, better temperature insulation (they don't conduct heat or cold like metal), and they won't set off metal detectors. They provide equivalent protection while enhancing overall comfort.
What industries is the Timberland Pro Ballast suitable for?
The Ballast Safety Boot is ideal for construction sites, manufacturing facilities, warehousing operations, logistics environments, and general industrial work. The S1P rating with penetration resistance makes it particularly suitable for environments with sharp object hazards. The slip-resistant outsole and electrical hazard protection make it versatile for both indoor and outdoor applications where multiple hazards may be present.
Can I replace the insole with custom orthotics?
Yes, the Timberland Pro Ballast features a removable insole that can be easily replaced with custom orthotics or aftermarket insoles. Many workers with specific foot conditions or those requiring additional arch support successfully use orthotic inserts with this boot. Removing the standard insole provides ample room for custom footbeds while maintaining the boot's safety features and protective construction.
