OVERVIEW

Superior Optical Clarity and Durability

The Harris Heat Treated Glass Lens Filter Plate is a critical component for professional welders demanding both protection and precision. Measuring the industry-standard 2 inches by 4-1/4 inches, this filter plate is engineered to fit a wide array of passive welding helmets, handheld shields, and goggles. Unlike polycarbonate alternatives, heat-treated glass offers exceptional resistance to scratching and pitting, ensuring that the welder's vision remains unobstructed even in harsh industrial environments.

Manufactured to strict optical standards, this glass filter plate minimizes distortion, providing a true-to-life view of the arc and weld puddle. The heat-treatment process significantly enhances the material's thermal shock resistance, preventing breakage under rapid temperature changes often encountered during heavy welding operations. This lens serves as the primary barrier against harmful Ultraviolet (UV) and Infrared (IR) radiation, safeguarding the operator's eyes while allowing for precise bead placement and puddle manipulation.

For maintenance and reliability, glass lenses are often preferred in high-heat applications where plastic lenses might warp or degrade. This product is designed for easy installation into standard retaining systems, making it a convenient consumable for MRO (Maintenance, Repair, and Operations) inventories. Whether used for Stick, MIG, or TIG welding, this filter plate delivers the consistent performance required for code-quality work.

FAQ

This lens measures 2 inches by 4-1/4 inches, which is the standard size for most fixed-front and flip-front welding helmets.

This is a heat-treated glass lens, which offers superior scratch resistance and optical clarity compared to standard plastic lenses.

If your helmet accepts a standard 2x4 (2" x 4.25") lens, this plate will fit. It is compatible with most major brands of passive hoods.

Yes, as a welding filter plate, it is designed to block harmful UV and IR radiation generated by the welding arc.

You can clean it with standard glass cleaner and a soft cloth. Because it is glass, it is more resistant to scratching during cleaning than plastic.

This is a filter plate, meaning it is shaded to protect your eyes from the arc. You should typically use a clear cover lens in front of it to protect it from spatter.

Heat treating strengthens the glass, making it more resistant to breaking from thermal shock (rapid temperature changes) and impact.

Yes, provided the shade number (if specified on the package) is appropriate for the amperage you are running. Glass lenses provide excellent clarity for TIG work.
