Protecting Eyes:
- Welding helmet: Use a helmet with a viewing window (lens) that meets the appropriate ANSI Z87.1 standard for welding.
- Auto-darkening lens: Choose a lens that automatically adjusts to the intensity of the welding arc, reducing the risk of eye damage.
- Eye protection goggles or glasses: Wear goggles or glasses that are specifically designed for welding with side shields to prevent light from entering from the sides.
- Stay alert: Avoid looking directly at the welding arc without proper eye protection.
Protecting Skin:
- Welding jacket and pants: Wear loose-fitting, flame-resistant welding garments made of materials like cotton, leather, or Nomex. Avoid wearing synthetic fabrics that can melt or burn.
- Welding gloves: Wear leather or welding-specific gloves to protect hands from heat, sparks, and slag.
- Head covering: Wear a welding cap or headsock to protect the scalp, neck, and ears from sparks and radiant heat.
- Closed-toe shoes: Wear sturdy, leather or composite-toe safety shoes to protect feet from falling objects and sparks.
- Long sleeves and pants: Cover as much skin as possible with clothing to reduce exposure to UV radiation, sparks, and slag.
- Sunscreen: Apply sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher to exposed skin areas to protect from ultraviolet (UV) radiation.
- Hydration: Stay well-hydrated to reduce the risk of dehydration, which can increase sensitivity to UV radiation.
Additional Tips:
- Clean gear regularly: Keep welding equipment clean to remove sparks, slag, and other contaminants.
- Inspect equipment: Inspect welding gear regularly for any damage or wear and tear and replace as necessary.
- Ventilate the workplace: Ensure proper ventilation to remove harmful fumes and smoke.
- Follow safety instructions: Adhere to all safety guidelines and instructions provided by the manufacturer.
- Seek professional assistance: If you experience any eye or skin irritation or injury during welding, seek immediate medical attention.
