Welding Helmets And Welding Safety In The Shop


Welding safety forms the backbone of any project involving an arc. Because of the intensity of light the arc emits, and the extreme temperature it produces, it stands to reason that protecting yourself remains the first rule of the day regardless of the nature of the job or the years of experience you have in the field. Futhermore, welding safety involves more than just protection from heat and light. A number of other safety hazards face welders, and require additional gear to fully meet OSHAand common sensesafety requirements. Red Hill Supply offers a comprehensive selection of welding safety equipment from top manufacturers of welding helmets, welding gloves, and welding goggles.


Welding helmets provide the most important element of protection by shielding the welders head and eyes from the bright light of the arc. We carry a number of standard and auto-darkening welders safety helmets in our online inventory. We offer fix-front welding safety helmets in a number of color options and designs. We also carry the more traditional liftfixed front combo helmets by mainstay manufacturers like Firepower and Eclipse. If you have a personal preference for new technology, or if your company requires the latest and greatest in welding safety, then we can accommodate your requirements with top-quality auto darkening welding helmets. Equipped with technology that automatically dims the eye shield as soon as the arc lights, these intuitive devices have already supplanted traditional welding helmets in many organizations. We currently offer the solar-powered models, as these are not only safer for the welder but also run on a renewable energy source.


No matter how safe your welding helmet is reputed to be, it remains wise to double-guard the eyes with safety glasses while welding. Even with the arc off, you can still be injured by a variety of equipment hazards on the job. Industrial welding often generates flying particles, chemicals, and vapors that can irritate or severely injure the eyes. No welding environment is ever safe in this sense without countermeasures taken in advance. Home and agricultural environments pose similar hazards to welders without safety glasses. Red Hill Supply not only recommends you double-guard your eyes, but also supplies some of the best welders goggles and safety glasses you can find anywhere online. Our safety glasses by UVEX offer protection from industrial, laboratory, and chemical hazards encountered daily by

Welders also need to safely protect their hands, and welding gloves are normally mandatory safety equipment for welders in factories and construction crews. Never remove your gloves while handling welding equipment or while standing in an area where other welders are working. Even with the arc off, hot metal can still burn your hands, and flying particles can burn the hands just like they can burn the eyes. While normal safety gloves might make do for a welder in a pinch, we do not recommend you use standard gloves as a mainstay welding safety device. Instead, we recommend welders invest in gloves specifically designed for their trade.
