What are the common types of welding accessories?

Welding accessories are tools and equipment that complement the primary welding equipment and ensure the safety and efficiency of the welding process.

Welding accessories types

Welding Helmet: Protects the welder’s eyes and face from sparks, heat, and UV radiation. Auto-darkening helmets are popular for their ability to automatically adjust the shade of the lens.

Welding Gloves: Made from heat-resistant materials, welding gloves protect the hands from sparks, heat, and molten metal. They are essential for the welder’s safety.

Welding Jacket or Apron: Provides additional protection for the upper body, preventing burns and sparks from reaching the skin.
