280984 - Miller Weld-Mask 2 Replacement Silicon Eye Skirt

Technical Overview

The Miller 280984 is a genuine replacement silicon eye skirt engineered specifically for the Miller Weld-Mask 2 auto-darkening goggle system. This component serves as the critical interface between the auto-darkening lens assembly and the flame-resistant head shroud. Constructed from high-grade, flexible silicon, the skirt is designed to contour to the user's facial structure, ensuring a light-tight seal that prevents ambient light or welding arc flash from bypassing the filtration lens.

Maintaining the integrity of this seal is paramount for ocular safety and the proper functioning of the auto-darkening sensors. Over time, silicon components may degrade due to exposure to sweat, heat, and UV radiation; replacement restores the original protective capabilities and comfort levels of the Weld-Mask 2 unit. This part is supplied as a single unit and is essential for compliant maintenance of the personal protective equipment.

Compatibility and Installation

This eye skirt is designed strictly for the Weld-Mask 2 platform and is not compatible with the original Weld-Mask or other third-party goggles. Installation involves securing the skirt between the rigid lens frame and the soft hood material, re-establishing the barrier required for safe welding in tight spaces.
