CEP932-108-9 - 4x5 Inch Shade 9 Polycarbonate Welding Lens Filter

Reliable Eye Protection for Precision Welding

When it comes to welding safety, the clarity and reliability of your viewing lens are paramount. The Shade 9 Plastic Filter Plate (4x5 Inch) is designed to provide welders with a high-quality, durable solution for passive welding helmets. Unlike traditional glass lenses, this filter plate is manufactured from high-grade polycarbonate plastic. This material choice not only significantly reduces the overall weight of your helmet—minimizing neck strain during long shifts—but also offers superior impact resistance, ensuring the lens survives the rigors of a busy workshop environment.

A Shade 9 rating is ideal for specific welding applications where the arc intensity is moderate. It is commonly used for low-amperage MIG and TIG welding, as well as plasma cutting operations where a darker shade (like 10 or 11) might obscure the workpiece too much. By providing the correct level of filtration, this lens ensures you can see the weld puddle clearly without straining your eyes or risking arc flash.

Key Benefits of Polycarbonate Lenses

Plastic lenses have become the standard for many modern welders due to their durability. While glass can shatter upon impact or when dropped, polycarbonate is shatter-resistant, adding an extra layer of safety for the user. Additionally, this lens is designed to fit standard large-view welding helmets that accept 4x5 inch plates, making it a versatile replacement part to keep in your inventory.

• Optical Clarity: Provides a clear view of the arc and puddle.
• Safety First: Blocks harmful UV and IR radiation effectively.
• Durability: Resists breakage and spatter better than standard glass.

Whether you are replacing a pitted lens or swapping shades for a different process, this Shade 9 filter plate is an essential accessory for maintaining optimal visibility and safety.
