Welding Helmet
A welding helmet is a protective headgear worn by welders to shield their eyes, face, and neck from sparks, intense light, ultraviolet and infrared radiation generated during welding processes. Typically equipped with a protective lens, often auto-darkening, the helmet allows the welder to see the workpiece clearly during the non-welding phases and automatically darkens to protect the eyes when the welding arc is initiated. It plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety and well-being of welders by preventing eye injuries and minimizing exposure to harmful radiation.
Welding Mask
A welding mask, also known as a welding helmet or welding hood, is a protective headgear worn by welders to shield their face, eyes, and neck from intense light, heat, sparks, and debris generated during the welding process. It typically features a transparent visor, often made of tinted or auto-darkening material, which automatically adjusts its opacity to protect the welder's eyes from the intense brightness of the welding arc. The mask also provides additional protection against ultraviolet and infrared radiation, as well as physical hazards associated with welding. Overall, a welding mask is a crucial safety tool that ensures the well-being of welders by preventing injuries caused by the hazards of welding.
