hey, does anyone know what type of glass the clear lens covers are in welding helmets? i need a new one, and have some spare clear sheets of glass lying about, was thinking if it was the same stuff i could cut some of that to fit?
cool I was thinking that, yeah mine is absolutley covered!!! just seen some in the shops and they had some compliance codes around the edge, just wondered if it was some special type of glass.
Use the plastic, polycarbonate clear cover lenses...at least then you have some kind of impact resistance...glass on glass The plastic ones last longer aswell

Or if you cant lay your hands on polycarbonate,get a picture framers or glass merchants to cut you them in 2mm float glass,there is always plenty of offcuts laying about the place.
