OVERVIEW

Professional Grade Shade 5 Cutting Glasses

The Jackson Safety Shade 5 Glasses are an essential piece of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for welders and fabricators engaged in oxy-fuel cutting and brazing. While arc welding requires much darker shades, gas processes generate a specific spectrum of light that requires a Shade 5 filter for optimal safety and visibility. These glasses are formulated to provide 99.9% UV protection and significant IR reduction, allowing the operator to view the weld puddle or cut line clearly without squinting or risking 'welder's flash'.

Constructed with a robust polycarbonate lens, these glasses offer superior impact resistance, safeguarding against sparks, spatter, and particulate matter. The black frame is both stylish and functional, designed to fit securely on a variety of face shapes. The lenses are treated with a scratch-resistant coating, ensuring that your view remains unobstructed even in harsh working conditions. This durability translates to cost savings over time, as the eyewear maintains its integrity longer than generic alternatives.

Safety managers and independent contractors alike trust the Jackson brand for consistent quality. These glasses are fully compliant with ANSI Z87.1 specifications, making them suitable for use in regulated industrial environments. They are an excellent alternative to traditional burning goggles, offering better ventilation to prevent fogging and a more comfortable fit for users who find elastic straps irritating.

Technical Performance

  • Optical Clarity: High-quality lenses prevent distortion, ensuring precision in your work.

FAQ

No, Shade 5 is not dark enough for electric arc welding processes like MIG, TIG, or Stick. Using them for arc welding can cause severe eye damage. They are designed strictly for gas welding, cutting, and brazing.

Yes, these Jackson Safety glasses are compliant with ANSI Z87.1 standards for impact resistance and optical clarity.

Yes, the polycarbonate lenses feature a hard coating that helps resist scratches and pitting from minor sparks and handling.

This specific model is generally designed as primary eyewear. While some slim prescription frames might fit underneath, they are not specifically categorized as 'Over-The-Glass' (OTG) eyewear.

Shade 5 is darker than Shade 3. Shade 5 is typically recommended for most oxy-fuel cutting and gas welding applications, whereas Shade 3 might be used for light brazing or as a helper's safety glass.

Wash with mild soap and water, then dry with a soft, lint-free cloth or a dedicated lens cleaning wipe. Avoid using abrasive solvents or rough paper towels that could damage the coating.

Yes, the wrap-around design of the frame and lenses provides integrated side protection to shield eyes from peripheral hazards.
