Welding safety forms the backbone of any project involving an arc.  Because of the intensity of light the arc emits, and the extreme temperature it produces, it stands to reason that protecting yourself remains the first rule of the day regardless of the nature of the job or the years of experience you have in the field.  Futhermore, welding safety involves more than just protection from heat and light.  A number of other safety hazards face welders, and require additional gear to fully meet OSHA—and common sense—safety requirements.  Red Hill Supply offers a comprehensive selection of welding safety equipment from top manufacturers of welding helmets, welding gloves, and welding goggles.

Welding helmets provide the most important element of protection by shielding the welder’s head and eyes from the bright light of the arc.  We carry a number of standard and auto-darkening welder’s safety helmets in our online inventory.  We offer fix-front welding safety helmets in a number of color options and designs.  We also carry the more traditional lift/fixed front combo helmets by mainstay manufacturers like Firepower and Eclipse.   If you have a personal preference for new technology, or if your company requires the latest and greatest in welding safety, then we can accommodate your requirements with top-quality auto darkening welding helmets.  Equipped with technology that automatically dims the eye shield as soon as the arc lights, these intuitive devices have already supplanted traditional welding helmets in many organizations.  We currently offer the solar-powered models, as these are not only safer for the welder but also run on a renewable energy source.

No matter how safe your welding helmet is reputed to be, it remains wise to double-guard the ey
