Arc rays from the welding process produce intense
visible and invisible (ultraviolet and infrared) rays
that can burn eyes and skin. Sparks fly off from the
weld.

l
of filter lenses to protect your face and eyes from arc rays and
sparks when welding or watching (see ANSI Z49.1 and Z87.1
listed in Principal Safety Standards).
Wear approved safety glasses with side shields under your
l
helmet.
Use protective screens or barriers to protect others from
l
flash, glare and sparks; warn others not to watch the arc.

material (leather, heavy cotton, wool). Body protection
includes oil-free clothing such as leather gloves, heavy shirt,
cuffless trousers, high shoes, and a cap.
