PossiblePFAS in water-resistant coating (fluorocarbon water-repellent coating treatment)
PossibleVolatile organic compounds (VOCs) from coating off-gassing
PossibleAzo dyes in nylon fabric or synthetic colorants
Where these two actually differ
- We flag PFAS in water-resistant coating (fluorocarbon DWR treatment), Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from coating off-gassing, Azo dyes in nylon fabric or synthetic colorants and Coating degradation and microplastic shedding over time on the Tamrac and not on the B+W.
- The B+W is Optical glass lens with multi-coated optical surfaces where the Tamrac is Ballistic nylon with water-resistant coating, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- The gap is 45 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the B+W is the one to buy.
- We are less certain about the Tamrac grade, at 42% confidence against 82%, because it discloses less.
Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
