Welding and face shields for protection and comfort

STUDSON has announced three face shields that are purpose-built to fit the SHK-1 Full Brim Safety Helmet. Exclusively designed with Paulson Manufacturing, the three shields integrate seamlessly with the STUDSON full brim ANSI Z89.1 Type II safety helmet, bypassing the need to custom fit a shield or to swap personal protective equipment (PPE) mid-job. Studson’s shields feature an ergonomic design, the weight-compensating slotted cap bracket reduces the strain felt when the shield is stowed, offering better balance and comfort. With an arc thermal protective value (ATPV) rating of 12 cal/cm², the Full Brim Welding Face Shield – Arc Flash Tint offers protection against arc flash hazards, ensuring safety in high-risk environments. Also featuring an HT nanoparticle lens, the nanoparticle technology enhances clarity and durability, providing a clever view while maintaining high resistance to impacts. Built for high-temperature and high-impact applications, the Full Brim Face Shield – Clear offers unobstructed visibility, making it suitable for a variety of applications where a clear view is essential while maintaining high levels of protection. Designed for optimal protection and visibility in gas welding and cutting operations, the Shade 5 green tint shields a wearer’s eyes from harmful radiation while providing a clear view of their work. It is rated for severe industrial service where high temperature and high impact may occur. All three styles feature the LeverLock attachment system, allowing for quick and easy shield replacement. The press-to-release slotted adapters make bracket removal simple. In addition, the toric-shaped lens design allows for an expansive field of vision and downward sightlines while minimizing internal glare to help users stay aware of their surroundings. The shields also have permanent anti-fog and anti-abrasion coatings that ensure long-lasting clarity and scratch resistance, helping reduce maintenance and replacement needs.
