Metalworking Personal Protection Equipment
For anyone who is welding, cutting, or grinding metal, having and properly using Metalworking Personal Protection Equipment is absolutely essential to minimize the risk of arc flash/spatter/ spark-related injury and potential effects of toxic fumes. Among the highly recommended items to have and wear are these-cap; safety glasses/goggles; ear plugs/muffles; half-mask respirator with charcoal filter; helmet or face shield; jacket; long sleeve, high-collar shirt; gloves; long pants; and high-top work boots or metal toed leather shoes. These devices can be especially important for those who may not be able to feel heat, as even small drops of molten metal or hot sparks can cause severe burns, which are slow to heal.
