3M\u2122 Rugged Comfort Half Facepiece 6500 Series<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Arc-Zone is partnering with 3M\u2122 to bring some of the most highly engineered welding safety products<\/a> to our customers.<\/p>\n

3M\u2122 makes many many products (everything from masking tape and Post-It Notes to data storage) but we\u2019ll only be offering their welding safety products or Personal Protection Equipment (PPE).<\/a><\/p>\n

Specifically we’ll be stocking 3M’s welding helmets including the the auto-darkening helmets with Speedglas\u2122 lens, and 3M respiratory safety products (including Powered Air Purifying Respirators (PAPR) ).<\/p>\n

The helmets and respiratory protection products are designed to work together for the ultimate in safety and comfort.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re managing any kind of welding business you\u2019re well aware of OSHA regulations, specifically in regards to respiratory safety but many of you may not realize that depending on your specific welding application, the process changes you implement in your weld shop may not address all the health concerns. In addition, in recent years there have been changes to both the Eye & Face Protection standards and the Respiratory Protection standards (especially in regards to Hexavalent Chromium and Manganese). You can read about these welding safety regulation changes from 3M (.pdf)<\/a><\/p>\n

The 3M Adflo system is the high-end PAPR product that protects workers from inhalants. Of specific concern are Hexavalent Chromium (CrVI) and Manganese. There is also a version of the Adflo that adjusts for changes in air density and is adapted for high altitude welding.<\/p>\n

Other respiratory protection systems include the Rugged Comfort Half Facepiece 6500 Series.<\/p>\n

\"3M
3M\u2122 Speedglas\u2122 SL Welding Helmet<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Arc-Zone will also be offering the 3M Speedglas\u2122 welding helmets. The one we\u2019re most excited about is the Super Light (SL) which weighs in at 13 ounces.<\/p>\n

You may not know the history of 3M<\/a>— their first venture was a failed mining operation (Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing Company). \u00a0Company founders were undeterred, however, \u00a0and continued on their path to success. \u00a0Their culture of persistence and constant innovation is a perfect match for Arc-Zone.com and we\u2019re proud to be able to include their welding safety products in our webstore. And to think, it all started with sandpaper!<\/p>\n
