Good quality face shield

[andeep]

Merry Christmas all,

Who makes a good quality full face shield? I'm sick of the cheap and nasty ones off ebay that I have to keep replacing all the time.

By face shield I mean this:

Thanks!

Hypertherm do one with a grade 8 flip down viser

One thing in favour of cheep off eBay is if they get damaged or scratch there easy to replace

On the rare occasion i wish to use a full face shield, i use this setup

I use a 344100 protector screen with chinguard, much better than the open bottom screens and room inside for an anti dust or welding mask

I will say a lot of the cheap screens are not rated high enough for metal work especially when using grinding wheels, just be careful and make sure you get a suitable shield

I agree and thats what I have been doing, but the quality of them is so poor, I thought I would try a bit of a better one.

I have seen lot of people use those, but I often wear a dust mask when grinding and I find it very uncomfortable to wear those elastic type goggles and a dust mask, especially were they meet at the nose.

That does look nice, I also like how it fully protects the face. What's the quality like?

Its been very good, Its been in use (and abuse) every day for about five years, I've only replaced the screen twice, buy a polycarbonate one for grinding.
