The ArcOne 02-OP Universal Cover Plate is an essential accessory designed to safeguard the integrity of high-performance auto-darkening filters (ADFs). Engineered from premium-grade polycarbonate, this cover plate provides a robust barrier against the harsh realities of industrial welding environments. With a thickness of 0.040 inches, it offers substantial impact resistance while maintaining superior optical clarity, ensuring that the welder's view remains unobstructed and distortion-free.
This specific model is designated as a "Universal" fit for large-view helmets, specifically accommodating dimensions of 5 inches by 4 inches (or 4x5 orientation). It is explicitly manufactured to serve as a direct replacement for ArcOne Vision series helmets, ensuring a precise fit that seals out particulates and smoke. The material's inherent flexibility is a critical design feature, allowing the plate to conform to both curved and straight helmet shells without cracking or compromising the seal. This adaptability makes it a versatile stock item for shops utilizing multiple helmet configurations.
The primary function of the 02-OP is to act as a sacrificial layer. During welding processes such as MIG or Stick, spatter and slag are generated that can permanently pit or fog the expensive glass of an ADF. By placing this polycarbonate shield on the outside (or inside) of the filter assembly, users effectively prolong the lifespan of their welding lens. The plate is designed for easy change-outs, allowing operators to maintain optimal visibility by swapping pitted plates for fresh ones in seconds. Whether used as an internal protection plate to guard against sweat and back-spatter or as the primary external shield, the 02-OP delivers reliable performance.
