Welding Face Protection

Welding face protection shields the face, eyes and neck from the UV and infrared radiation, sparks, spatter and fumes generated during arc welding, MIG, TIG, stick welding and plasma cutting operations. At BetonTools, we stock professional welding face protection for tradies and workshops across Australia.

Types of welding face protection
Welding helmets provide full face and eye protection and are the primary face protection for arc welding processes. Passive shade helmets use a fixed lens shade (typically shade 10–13) selected to match the welding process and amperage. Auto-darkening helmets automatically darken when an arc is struck — allowing better visibility when positioning the torch or electrode before welding — and are the preferred choice for productivity and comfort in professional applications. Welding face shields are used for chipping, grinding and other secondary welding operations where a full helmet is not required, providing face and eye protection against flying debris. Welding goggles are suited to oxy-fuel welding, cutting and brazing. All welding face protection should meet AS/NZS 1337 (eye protectors) and AS/NZS 1338 (filters for eye protectors) for use on Australian worksites.
