Dynaflux UV2408GF Glass Filter Plate Shade 8 Welding

Product Description

The DYNAFLUX UV2408GF is a heat-treated glass shaded filter plate designed to protect a welder's eyes from ultraviolet and infrared radiation during welding and cutting operations. This filter lens is ground to a Shade 8 optical density, making it appropriate for lower-amperage MIG, TIG, and gas welding processes. At 2 inches x 4.25 inches, it fits standard welding helmet and hand shield filter openings. The heat-treated construction adds durability and resistance to breakage under typical shop conditions. Installation requires no tools — the lens drops into the filter frame of a compatible welding helmet or shade.

Shade 8 filter plates are used in light-duty welding applications including gas welding, brazing, and low-amperage arc processes. This lens is sold individually and is a direct replacement for worn, cracked, or scratched filter plates in welding helmets and goggles that accept a 2 inches x 4.25 inches filter. Welders, fabricators, and pipefitters performing lower-current work on sheet metal, thin-wall tubing, and similar materials will find this shade level appropriate for their process parameters.

Key Features

• Shade 8 optical density for UV and IR eye protection during light-duty welding
• Heat-treated glass construction for improved durability and impact resistance
• Standard 2 inches x 4.25 inches dimensions fit common helmet and hand shield filter frames
• Sold individually — replace only the filter without replacing the full helmet

Compatibility

Designed as a replacement filter plate for welding helmets, goggles, and hand shields that accept a 2 inches x 4.25 inches glass filter lens opening.

Installation Notes

Filter plate replacement should be performed with the welding equipment powered down and the work area clear of arc or flame hazards. The lens slides or snaps into the helmet's filter frame — inspect the retaining clips or cover lens for wear before reinstalling. Always verify the installed shade meets ANSI Z87.1 minimum requirements for the specific welding process being performed. Discard any filter plate that shows cracks, chips, or visible surface damage.
