The Gold Coated Glass Filter Plate Shade 12 is a premium passive welding lens designed for professionals who demand superior optical clarity and comfort during extended welding operations. Measuring a standard 4-1/2 inches by 5-1/4 inches, this filter plate fits most large-window welding helmets, providing an expansive field of view that is critical for precision work.
The defining feature of this lens is its specialized gold coating. Unlike standard dark green filters that absorb heat, this gold layer is engineered to reflect up to 90% of radiated heat away from the user's face. This significant reduction in thermal transfer helps keep the welder cooler, reduces perspiration, and minimizes the fatigue associated with high-heat environments. It is an ideal solution for heavy-duty MIG or stick welding applications where arc heat is intense.
Beyond thermal management, the glass substrate is heat-treated for durability and optical stability. The lens provides a "true color" view of the arc and puddle, filtering out harmful UV and IR radiation while allowing the welder to see the natural colors of the molten pool. This clarity aids in better puddle manipulation and bead consistency. The Shade 12 darkness level is perfectly suited for medium-to-high amperage welding, offering substantial protection without compromising visibility.
