Workwear for protection from welding
and similar processes

Protective clothing designed to provide protection against splashes (small splatters of molten metal), short exposure to flames, radiant heat from the arc used for welding and allied processes, and minimises the risk of electric shock due to short-circuiting and accidental contact with live electrical conductors at voltages up to approximately 100 V DC under normal welding conditions. The standard is divided into two classes with varying levels of risk, where Class 1 offers protection against less hazardous welding techniques and situations, causing lower levels of spatter and radiant heat. Class 2 provides protection against more hazardous welding techniques and situations, causing higher levels of spatter and radiant heat. It is necessary to use a coverall or a two-piece suit and ensure that the clothing is fastened at all times for optimal protection.
