OVERVIEW

Reliable Industrial Eye Protection

The Shade 12 Glass Filter Plate is a fundamental component for welders requiring reliable, fixed-shade protection. Measuring 4-1/2 inches by 5-1/4 inches, this lens is designed to fit standard large-view welding helmets and flip-front masks commonly used in industrial fabrication and maintenance. Manufactured from high-quality heat-treated glass, this filter plate offers exceptional thermal stability, ensuring it maintains its integrity even when subjected to the intense heat of prolonged welding operations.

Unlike polycarbonate alternatives, glass filter plates provide superior resistance to pitting and scratching, although they require careful handling to avoid breakage. The Shade 12 darkness level is specifically calibrated for medium-to-high amperage welding processes, effectively blocking harmful Ultraviolet (UV) and Infrared (IR) radiation. This ensures that the operator's eyes are protected against "arc eye" and long-term damage while maintaining a clear view of the arc and weld puddle.

At Josef Gas, we understand that clear vision is critical for quality welds. This passive filter plate delivers consistent optical clarity without the complexity of electronic auto-darkening filters. It is an economical and robust solution for workshops, manufacturing plants, and field repair crews. To maximize the lifespan of this filter plate, we strongly recommend installing it behind a clear polycarbonate cover lens to shield the glass from direct spatter impact.

FAQ

The lens measures 4-1/2 inches by 5-1/4 inches (approx. 114mm x 133mm).

No, this is a passive, fixed-shade glass filter plate that remains dark at all times.

It is made of heat-treated glass for improved durability and optical clarity.

Yes, you should always use a clear polycarbonate cover lens in front of the glass filter to protect it from weld spatter and impact.

Shade 12 is typically suitable for welding amperages between 200 and 300 amps, depending on the process.

It will fit any welding helmet designed to accept a standard 4.5" x 5.25" filter plate.

Glass generally offers better optical clarity and scratch resistance, while plastic is lighter and more impact-resistant.
