OVERVIEW

Precision Optics for Weld-Mask Systems

The Miller 281196 Diopter 2.25 Magnifying Lens is a specialized optical accessory engineered specifically for the Miller Weld-Mask and Weld-Mask 2 series. Unlike standard 2x4 magnifying lenses used in traditional welding hoods, this lens is contoured to fit the unique, compact geometry of the Weld-Mask eye protection system. It serves as a critical component for operators requiring visual assistance to maintain strict tolerance levels during welding operations.

Manufactured from high-grade, shatter-resistant polycarbonate, the lens meets rigorous industrial safety standards while providing optical clarity. The 2.25 diopter rating offers significant magnification, allowing for detailed inspection of the arc and weld pool without the need for auxiliary eyewear underneath the mask. The lens is designed to sit securely behind the primary lens assembly, ensuring it remains protected from direct spatter and heat while maintaining the correct focal distance for the user.

Integration of this lens into the Weld-Mask system does not compromise the unit's low-profile design or seal. It is an OEM replacement part, ensuring perfect compatibility and eliminating the issues of fogging or shifting often associated with ill-fitting generic alternatives. This component is essential for fabrication environments where precision TIG or fine MIG work is performed using the Weld-Mask platform.
