Xtrweld LENS45P-SH8 Polycarbonate Filter Plate Shade 8

Product Description

The XTRWELD LENS45P-SH8 is a polycarbonate filter plate designed to protect a welder's eyes from arc radiation, infrared, and ultraviolet light during welding operations. Rated at Shade 8, this lens is suited for low- to medium-amperage welding processes where optical protection at that shade level is required. The plate measures 4.5 x 5.25 inches and is constructed from polycarbonate, which offers impact resistance compared to standard glass lenses. It meets ANSI Z87.1 and CSA Z94.3 safety standards. Welding professionals, fabricators, and shop technicians install this filter plate as a replacement or spare in compatible welding helmets and face shields.

The LENS45P-SH8 is used in light-industrial and professional welding environments where a Shade 8 optical filter is appropriate. Common applications include MIG welding at lower amperage settings, flux-core wire welding, and similar arc welding tasks. The 4.5 x 5.25 inch format fits a wide range of standard passive welding helmet filter frames. It is packaged individually in a hangable bag, making it suitable for point-of-sale display and single-unit replacement use. Minimum order quantity is 50 units per purchase.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-format replacement filter plate for passive welding helmets and face shields that accept a 4.5 x 5.25 inch filter lens.

Installation Notes

Filter plate replacement should be performed by the welder or a qualified safety equipment technician with the welding equipment fully powered down and the work area clear of active arc hazards. Inspect the helmet lens frame and retaining hardware before seating the new filter plate to confirm a secure fit with no gaps at the edges. Polycarbonate lenses should not be cleaned with solvent-based cleaners, as these can degrade optical clarity and surface integrity. Follow applicable ANSI Z87.1 guidelines and employer safety protocols when selecting and replacing eye protection components.
