Ravindra’s Answer

1.SAFETY GLASSES
Safety glasses are necessary for the protection of welders’ eyes from flying sparks and debris. The glasses must have non-tinted clear lenses.

2.AUTO-DARKENING WELDING HELMET
Auto darkening welding helmets safeguard a welder from flying sparks and debris hitting the face and also protects their eyes from the blindingly fluorescent welding spark.

3.CHIPPING HAMMER
A Chipping hammer is used for removing welding slag and welding spatter from welds.

4.WIRE BRUSH
A wire brush is used for cleaning off debris before, after and between each pass to avoid contamination of the weld.

5.GAUNTLET CUFF GLOVES (MIG WELDING)
A pair of gauntlet gloves for MIG welding has free wrist movement and firm finger pockets.

6.TIG WELDING GLOVES
TIG welding gloves have thinner and more flexible material with fire-resistant fabric.

7.PROBAN® WELDING JACKET
Proban® welding jackets are thick and fire resistant, and they protect a welder’s body well.

8.EAR PROTECTION
Welding can be a loud operation and requires an intense level of concentration. Ear plugs can help maintain focus by drowning out external noise and also prevent damage to the welder’s ears.

9.SOAPSTONE
High-quality industrial soapstone marker is used to mark the metal and determine where the welds are to be made.

10.MIG PLIERS
MIG pliers are essential components of a welder’s kit. They can be used for various small functions.

Cutting off burned wire before starting a new bead
Removing contact tip from the gun
Cleaning spatters out of the gun nozzle
Removing the gun gas diffuser
Propping up a piece to hold it in place for welding
A welder utilizes many other tools for their trade, but the essentials mentioned above are the basic ones that a student needs to learn the skill.
