K2971-1 - Lincoln Electric I-Beam Outdoor Safety Glasses Red Mirror Lens

Robust Outdoor Eye Protection

The Lincoln Electric I-Beam™ Black Welding Safety Glasses (K2971-1) are engineered to provide superior eye protection for industrial professionals working in outdoor environments. Combining a sleek, modern aesthetic with rigorous safety standards, these glasses are an essential addition to any personal protective equipment (PPE) inventory. The glasses feature a distinctive black wraparound frame that offers excellent peripheral coverage, ensuring that eyes are shielded from flying debris, dust, and impact hazards from multiple angles.

At the core of this eyewear is the Red Mirror lens, designed specifically to manage high-glare conditions typical of outdoor construction sites, pipelines, and fabrication yards. While they resemble stylish sunglasses, they are built for work, meeting strict ANSI Z87+ and CSA Z94.3 requirements for high-velocity impact protection. The lenses also provide 99.9% protection against UV-A, UV-B, and UV-C radiation, safeguarding the user's long-term vision health against sun damage.

Comfort is paramount for safety gear that must be worn throughout a shift. The K2971-1 model addresses this with a lightweight design, weighing approximately one ounce. The frame incorporates a flexible nosepiece and rubber-overmolded temple tips that conform to the wearer's head shape. This design minimizes slippage and relieves the pressure points often associated with rigid safety glasses, allowing for extended wear without fatigue. The anti-fog coating on the lenses further enhances safety by maintaining clear visibility during physical exertion or humidity changes.

These glasses are suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, including general fabrication, mining, oil and gas, and railroad maintenance. By choosing the Lincoln Electric I-Beam series, professionals invest in durability, compliance, and comfort.
