Weldfast Direct Grinding Goggles – Clear (WLD00178)

Description

Genuine Weldfast · Part no. WLD00178

Weldfast Direct Grinding Goggles, clear: a light goggle with a soft PVC frame and a toughened polycarbonate lens, rated under EN166 for medium impact and large dust particles even at extreme temperatures. Made for grinding, wire brushing and cutting off rusty exhaust fixings with a disc.

Good to know

• Can I weld in them? No, the lens is clear and gives no protection from the light of arc or gas welding; use a welding helmet or goggles with the right filter shade.
• What does optical class 1 mean? It is the top optical grade under EN166, so the lens doesn't distort your view and the goggles are fine to wear for long spells.
• Are they enough for an angle grinder? Medium impact protects the eyes from flying grit and chips, but a disc that breaks can strike the face, so keep the grinder's guard on and add a face shield for heavy cutting.

Which one?

For liquid splashes, like topping up battery or brake fluid, the Portwest PW22 Challenger Safety Goggles (PW22CLR) have indirect vents made to keep liquids out.
