The shield is supplied by Science Lab Supplies from its base in Ambala, India, for institutes, tender contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Every stated detail of the shield is in the table below. In short, the body is moulded from black plastic, which keeps it light at about 400 g for long practice sessions, and the viewing window uses a polycarbonate lens through which the trainee watches the weld pool while the face stays covered.

Applications and Experiments for the Welding Shield
The shield is worn or held by every trainee and instructor at the welding bench, and by observers close to an arc. It supports practical sessions in the ITI Welder trade, TVET welding and fabrication modules and diploma or B.Tech workshop practice, where each welding bench needs its own shield.
- ITI Welder trade: face protection during stick welding on the Shielded Metal ARC Welding Machine and TIG practice on the TIG Welding Machine.
- TVET welding and fabrication: part of the personal protective kit for each trainee.
- Workshop practice in polytechnics and engineering colleges: protection for students observing welding.
Always check that the filter in the viewing window is dark enough for the welding process and current used, and replace a cracked or scratched lens. The shield should be worn with leather gloves, apron or jacket so no skin is exposed to the arc.
