FCAW, SMAW and grinding are processes that produce fumes and particulates.Nuisance filter masks, type N95 with charcoal, are recommended as minimum protection. It is highly recommended that a filter mask or a ВЅ-mask respirator be worn for welding and grinding. There are many fumes and gases produced from welding and associated processes. Recommended: Weld 221A-D OAW (Oxygen-Acetylene or gas welding) classes: Medium weight GMAW (MIG) gloves, such as Black Stallion Mighty MIG or Miller MIG glove. Recommended: Weld 211A-D Wire Feed classes: Medium weight GMAW (MIG) gloves, such as Black Stallion Mighty MIG or Miller MIG glove. Recommended: Weld 204A-D SMAW (Arc weld or STICK) classes: Medium weight GMAW (MIG) gloves, such as Black Stallion Mighty MIG or Miller MIG glove. Recommended: Weld 203A-D GTAW (TIG) classes: GTAW (TIG) gloves. Recommended: Weld 205 Introductory Course: Medium weight GMAW (MIG) gloves, such as Black Stallion Mighty MIG or Miller MIG glove. Gloves should not be used where the glove can get caught in rotating machinery, especially pedestal grinders. Thinner welding gloves that allow increased dexterity are recommended for GTAW and OAW. Medium-weight welding gloves are recommended for GMAW. High-temperature welding gloves are recommended for FCAW. Thick leather welding gloves are recommended for SMAW and FCAW. They should match the welding process that you are performing. Leather welding gloves are required to protect the hands while welding. Recommended: Washable Silicon earplugs on a string. Ear muffles can be worn to provide even greater noise reduction. Earplugs are required to protect your ears from both loud noises and foreign object damage. There are many noise-generating devices in the welding laboratory that can damage your hearing, and there are circumstances in which debris can penetrate the ear canal.
