Welding Eye & Face Protection

Welding eye and face protection is essential PPE for welders, grinders and anyone working in or around arc welding, MIG, TIG, stick welding or oxy-fuel cutting operations. Protecting eyes and face from UV and infrared radiation, sparks, spatter and slag, proper welding eye and face protection is non-negotiable in any welding environment. At BetonTools, we stock professional welding eye and face protection for tradies and workshops across Australia.

Types of welding eye and face protection
Welding helmets are the primary eye and face protection for arc welding, shielding the full face from UV/IR radiation, sparks and spatter. Auto-darkening helmets automatically adjust lens shade when an arc is struck, improving productivity and reducing the need to lift the helmet between welds. Welding goggles are suited to oxy-fuel welding, cutting and brazing where full helmet protection is not required. Welding face shields provide additional face protection for grinding, chipping and other secondary operations around the weld area. Lens shades are rated by shade number (e.g. shade 10–13 for MIG/stick welding) — the correct shade must match the welding process and amperage. Look for products certified to AS/NZS 1337 (eye protection) and AS/NZS 1338 (filters for eye protectors).
