Laser Welding Safety Glasses
Shield your eyes from harmful light during laser or traditional welding. These glasses meet ANSI Z136.1 specifications for laser safety. Since they can be worn for traditional welding as well as laser welding, you can switch between the two without needing to swap out your safety glasses. When laser welding, always wear them with a laser welding helmet or hood—they’re slim enough to fit underneath without a problem. Do not wear these glasses under a regular welding helmet when laser welding—they do not offer sufficient protection.
Visible light is the percentage of visible light that passes through the lens. The lower the percentage, the more light is blocked. Make sure enough light passes through to see your welding work clearly but not so much that it becomes dangerous.
Optical density indicates how much light a lens absorbs at a specific wavelength. The higher the density, the more UV, infrared, and visible light is blocked. Powerful lasers often require an optical density of 5 or higher.

Laser Welding Safety Goggles
An adjustable strap keeps these goggles secure on your head better than safety glasses. Use them to guard your eyes from harmful light during laser welding and traditional welding. Since they can be worn for both traditional and laser welding, you can switch between the two without needing to swap out your safety goggles. They meet ANSI Z136.1 specifications for safety when using lasers. When laser welding, always wear these goggles with a laser welding helmet or hood—they’re slim enough to fit underneath. Do not wear these goggles under a regular welding helmet for laser welding, because they do not offer sufficient protection.
