2DGN-PC - Walter Dark Green Polycarbonate Replacement Visor 15.5x8

Technical Overview of the Walter 2DGN-PC Visor

The Walter 2DGN-PC is a specialized replacement visor designed to provide robust face protection in industrial environments. Engineered from high-grade polycarbonate, this visor offers superior impact resistance compared to standard acetate or propionate alternatives. The material properties of polycarbonate make it an ideal choice for applications where flying debris, sparks, and mechanical hazards are prevalent. With a thickness of 0.060 inches, this visor provides a substantial barrier that maintains structural integrity even under harsh working conditions.

Dimensionally, the visor measures 15.5 inches in width and 8 inches in height. This standard sizing ensures compatibility with a wide range of brow guards and headgear assemblies commonly used in the industry. The specific curvature and flexibility of the 0.060-inch polycarbonate allow for a secure fit that covers the face adequately without restricting head movement. The mounting points are designed to align with standard retention systems, facilitating quick change-outs during maintenance intervals.

A key feature of the 2DGN-PC is its dark green tint. While clear visors are standard for general purpose grinding, the dark green coloration serves to attenuate excessive light and reduce glare. This is particularly beneficial in environments with high ambient brightness or where the operator is exposed to the secondary glare of nearby welding or cutting operations. It is important to note that while the green tint offers glare reduction, users should verify specific shade ratings for direct viewing of arcs; however, for general shop floor usage, the tint significantly reduces eye fatigue.

Maintenance of the polycarbonate surface requires adherence to specific cleaning protocols to preserve optical clarity. The material is resistant to many industrial chemicals but performs best when cleaned with mild soap and water or specialized lens cleaning solutions to prevent hazing. The 2DGN-PC represents a balance of durability, optical performance, and protective coverage, making it a reliable component in personal protective equipment inventories.
