Designed for the Zebra KC401, this privacy glass screen protector limits the visible angle of the display to ±30°, so on-screen content stays visible to the user directly in front while remaining effectively unreadable to anyone alongside. It pairs that directional privacy with a suite of surface treatments that address both durability and day-to-day hygiene.
Key Features:
- A ±30° restricted viewing angle keeps display content visible only to the person directly in front of the screen, limiting visual access from either side.
- Protection is rated to the same Shatterproof Glass specification as the KC401's supplied protector, maintaining the device's original level of impact and scratch resistance.
- Bubble-free installation means the protector adheres cleanly without trapped air pockets, preserving touch sensitivity and display clarity from the moment it is applied.
- An oleophobic coating actively repels oils from skin contact, reducing the build-up of smudges and fingerprints on the screen surface.
- Blue light blocking properties reduce the amount of high-energy visible light transmitted through the glass, which can help ease eye strain during extended screen use.
- Anti-microbial properties are built into the protector, helping to inhibit the growth of microbes on the screen surface over time.
Shatterproof Glass Specification Maintained
The protector is engineered to deliver the same level of protection as the Shatterproof Glass specification that ships with the Zebra KC401. Fitting an aftermarket accessory does not mean trading down on toughness: the surface hardness and impact resistance that the original specification provides are carried through to this privacy variant.
Directional Privacy at ±30 Degrees
The ±30° viewing angle restriction is the defining characteristic of this protector. Content displayed on the KC401 remains clear for someone looking straight at the screen, but falls into an effectively darkened field for anyone positioned to either side. This makes the protector relevant wherever the KC401 is used in proximity to other people and the displayed information warrants discretion.
Surface Treatments That Resist Daily Wear
The oleophobic coating addresses one of the most persistent problems with touchscreen devices in active use: the gradual accumulation of skin oils that cloud the display and reduce legibility. By repelling those oils, the coating keeps the screen cleaner between wipes and reduces the frequency of cleaning required. The anti-microbial properties complement this by inhibiting microbial growth on the glass surface itself, which is a practical benefit on any shared or frequently handled device.
Blue Light Blocking for Prolonged Use
The glass incorporates blue light blocking, which reduces the proportion of high-energy visible light reaching the user's eyes. For workers who spend extended periods looking at the KC401's display, this characteristic can contribute to reduced eye fatigue over the course of a shift.
Clean, Bubble-Free Application
Bubble-free installation eliminates the trapped air that can distort touch response and create visible blemishes under the glass. The protector adheres uniformly across the KC401's display from first contact, so there is no need for repeated repositioning or post-installation pressing to work out imperfections.
