Welding protection From the beginning, Faru has been working for the protection of welders.The rm began its activity in the most basic eye and face protection for welders with berboard screens, both handheld and head, with folding or xed peephole, and multiple designs. Over the years, the welding passive eye protection with inactinic lters has given way to electronic lters, which provide greater exibility and improve ef ciency and productivity in electronic welding processes.The electronic lter allows vision with a light shade when the arc has not occurred yet, and self-darkens to provide the necessary protection, adapting the tone according to the intensity of the current being used at all times. “Eye protection is very important for the welder, but there are more risks in this environment. At Faru we work every day to provide comprehensive protection in the workplace”, remark company sources, while offering some pieces of advice in this regard. -Use of the welding screen must be accompanied by appropriate respiratory protection to avoid fumes resulting from welding, containing particles and pollutants which cause health damage that can take weeks, months and even years to appear. In its section of breathing protective equipment Faru has a wide selection of items, from disposable masks to motorized equipment and air lines. -It’s important to use proper body protection to avoid worker clothing burns and even skin burns by sparks produced in the process.To this end, Faru proposes the classic aprons, leggings and sleeves for welding, having also suits and leather pants combined with cotton in the back to improve breathability and thereby the worker comfort. It also has welding gloves and speci c gloves for thermal hazards. “A novelty added recently is the foray into the Proof-fessional footwear range of our welder boot 2292S1P, which has an anti-sparks tongue and adjustment cord under the tongue and buckle closure”, remarks Faru. -Besides individual protection, welding works require the use of collective protection equipment both to safeguard the health of other workers who are close to areas where welding is carried out and to protect the facilities. Welding work involves a high risk of re if appropriate measures are not taken. Faru has multiple solutions to provide the welding environment with slats or PVC curtains of different thicknesses and colors, and even custom-built facilities that can be easily installed by the customer.Very common is the use of screens thatcanbeadaptedtotemporaryworkwithout a xed installation.

PT protective screens help protect machines or installations which are in the working environment of sparks and slag generated in the welding process. These blankets are available in two standard sizes, but can be ordered in rolls to adapt to multiple environments, needs and measures. Eye protection is very important. But the use of the welding screen must be accompanied by appropriate respiratory protection to avoid fumes generated in the process Updated products
