Welding Requires Full Protection On the Field
Welding is a very hot job that needs full protection. About 3,000 C to 20,000 C of intense liquid heat touch welders each day. Their job is to make metals and equipment for companies in the hottest environments. Due to this, it is important for a employer and individual involved in welding work to equip themselves with top welding gear. If your on a low budget and extremely frugal, please at least consider buying a wielding helmet to protect your eye vision and gloves to protect your hands from the burning coal. Most workers that get hurt in wielding businesses because they do not wear gloves. Get the best wielding gear you can on the market to protect your full body. More information on welding gear that can protect workers and individuals involved in wielding tasks below.
Gear to Protect Feet and Legs
Feet and legs need welding protection. So many pieces of hot metal and lightning fall to the ground. Doesn’t matter if your standing near it or 20 feet away. Sparks hurt and can leave extreme skin damage on bottom portion of body if left unprotected. To protect, wear a chap to protect the waist and legs. Chaps should be made from leather and tough suede. Do not get cheap plastic chaps because anything not tough will burn the one using it. Chaps come in different styles, so you should find one to your liking. Next, we move to the boots the workers that wield metal wear. The issue is the material and soles the boots are made from. Safely, wear boots that are closed and leather. Make sure the sole of that boot is pierce proof and resistant to shocks. All the sparks hitting boots would not make the employee jump back and cause accidents if this is done. Last, you need to purchase an apron that can withstand heat damage with the leather it is made from. Doing all this, would help you or employee protect themselves in the welding business.
Jacket and Chest Wielding Gear
Long sleeve jackets and chest protection gear is safety essential. The main part that come in contact with heat, liquid heat, and sparks is the upper body. All jackets must be fire proofed and made of tough material. Regular leather may work for couple months, but consider higher grades. Leather can’t handle constant abuse for long hauls. Make sure you test the wielding jacket out before using. Companies claim fireproof jackets work at all times. But, the only way to truly know is to test it. Moving on, the chest gear consist of apron, gloves and welding sleeves. The welding sleeves might not be necessary if your wearing a welding jacket but give your employees this anyway. These 3 items will protect your front area, hands, and arms. In the business, we call it chest gear for the sake of chest protection. It does not look like a medieval chest brass.
The gloves are very very important. Heat burns to the highest degree with the fingers. Your fingers are going to get the closest to the fire. According to one study, 25% of people who wield for a living have injuries on their fingers. 70% of those injuries happen because workers are not using gloves while performing their welding. Always, wear gloves for wielding. Now, wielding gloves are not comfortable to wear. I understand this. Find some gloves that are comfortable and easy to lift objects with. Don’t use the basic wielding gloves, if you can afford to buy more wielding gloves.
Helmet Wielding Gear
One of the best wielding gear to have is the wielding helmet. Won’t be a waste of money to buy something that can protect your eyes, skin, face, mind, vision, and job security. Plus, they make you think your Darth Vader from the Star Wars. Helmets come with visors protecting eyes from all types of intense heat light. Auto-darkening Helmets are also available for you to purchase. They provide you with a more enhance view. It automatically detects the heat coming to your helmet and alters the color shade to make it easier for your eyes to see. Most of run on solar power batteries. Just put the auto-darkening lens helmet on and your good for the next 8 hours.
