OVERVIEW

Stop Squinting and Start Welding with Lincoln Cheater Glasses

Every welder knows the frustration of trying to read a micrometer, check a blueprint, or inspect a root pass when you just can't quite get the focus right. The Lincoln Electric K3117-100 Bifocal Welding Safety Glasses are the solution you've been looking for. Often called "cheater glasses" in the shop, these specs feature a built-in 1.0 diopter magnifier at the bottom of the lens. This allows you to instantly switch from looking around the shop to focusing on fine details, all without taking off your safety gear. Whether you are setting up your machine parameters or checking for undercut, these glasses give you the visual boost you need to get the job done right the first time.

Comfort is key when you are under the hood or grinding all day. These glasses are designed with slip-resistant temple tips that keep them firmly in place, even when you are sweating or moving around a large fabrication project. The frame is lightweight yet durable, offering full eye coverage that fits comfortably under most welding helmets and face shields. You no longer have to swap between your "readers" and your safety glasses—these do it all. The clear lenses are perfect for indoor shop environments, giving you a bright, sharp view of your surroundings.

Safety is never second place with Lincoln Electric. These bifocals meet strict ANSI Z87.1 standards, meaning they are built to take a hit. They protect your eyes from flying sparks, grinding dust, and other shop hazards while providing that extra magnification. For the welder who demands precision and refuses to compromise on safety, the K3117-100 is an essential addition to your personal protective equipment bag. Keep a pair in your toolbox and see the difference clear vision makes in your weld quality.
