2.
An opaque helmet will protect against the ultraviolet or infrared light. A
helmet will also protect against ejected hot material and slag.
3.
Wear a fire-resistant head covering like a skull cap or balaclava hood to
protect your head when the faceplate is down or when using a welding
hand shield.
4.
Wear safety goggles beneath the welding helmet or behind the hand
shield. The cooling weld bead may fragment or eject slag that can damage
the eyes, when the helmet or hand shield is not in place.
5.
Wear ear plugs when welding overhead to prevent spatter or slag from
falling into ear.
PROTECTIVE CLOTHING
1.
Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame resistant materials,
leather welding gloves and full foot protection.
2.
Wear a leather apron or jacket, leather welding gloves and fire-resistant
footwear when welding. Wear thick clothes that do not expose the skin.
Ultraviolet or infrared light can burn skin with sufficient exposure.
3.
Choose clothing fabrics that resist sparks, heat and flames. Artificial
fabrics may burn and melt, resulting in a more severe injury.
4.
Do not wear clothing that can hold hot debris or sparks such as pant
cuffs, shirt pockets or boots. Choose clothing that has flaps over pockets
or wear clothing to cover the openings such as pant legs over the boots or
an apron over the shirt.
5.
Remove all jewelry before proceeding to weld
6.
Wear protective clothing made from durable, flame resistant materials,
leather welding gloves and full foot protection.
7.
Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from flash and glare;
warn others in the area to look away from the arc.
RESPIRATORS
1.
Respiratory protection is needed when ventilation is not sufficient to
remove welding fumes or when there is risk of oxygen deficiency.
a.
Wear a NIOSH approved respirator when working on materials that
produce dust or particulate matter.
2.
Work in a confined space only if it is well ventilated or while wearing an
air-supplied respirator. Welding fumes and gases can displace air and
lower the oxygen level causing injury or death. Be sure the breathing air is
safe.
