Steiner 501-6X8 Portable Welding Screen Kit 8x6 Cotton Duck

Product Description

The STEINER 501-6X8 is a portable welding screen kit designed to shield surrounding workers and equipment from weld spatter, sparks, and arc flash. Built from 12 oz per square yard cotton duck fabric, this straight-section screen stands 6 feet high and spans 8 feet wide at 3/4 inch thick, making it a practical barrier for shop floors, fabrication bays, and job sites. Licensed welders and maintenance technicians install this type of screen as a first line of protection in high-traffic work areas where fixed welding enclosures are not practical. The olive-colored cotton duck construction offers heat resistance appropriate for general welding operations.

This portable welding screen is suited for light industrial, manufacturing, and maintenance environments where temporary arc flash and spatter containment is required. The straight modular section design allows it to be deployed quickly as a standalone barrier or positioned alongside additional screen sections to extend coverage. It is commonly used in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, and on-site repair work where a compact, transportable welding barrier is needed without permanent installation.

Key Features

• Cotton duck fabric at 12 oz per square yard provides durable spark and spatter resistance
• 8-foot width and 6-foot height deliver wide, full-body arc flash coverage
• 3/4 inch panel thickness adds structural rigidity for freestanding use
• Straight modular section design allows single-unit deployment or multi-section expansion
• Portable kit format supports fast setup and breakdown across multiple work locations
• Olive fabric finish is a standard color for welding safety screens in industrial settings

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style portable welding screen for general industrial and fabrication welding safety applications where straight-section curtain barriers are specified.

Installation Notes

Welding screens of this type are typically set up by the welding operator or a safety technician prior to beginning any arc welding process. Position the screen to fully enclose the weld zone and protect adjacent personnel from arc flash and spatter. Ensure the screen stands on a stable, level surface and is not placed near flammable materials. Consult applicable OSHA and AWS safety standards for welding screen placement requirements in your facility.
