Hobart 770096 Welding Oxy-Acetylene Goggle - 50mm Eye Cup

Technical Details


Ideal for use with welding applications

Rigid 50 mm dual cup for optimal eye protection

Elastic headband helps the goggles stay in place for lasting protection

Number-5 shade shields against brightness

Compact design for easy, durable transport

Fixed Front - Rigid 50 mm dual cup eye goggles come with #5 shade for acetylene welding. Compact design with elastic headband provides years of trouble-free eye protection

These goggles are very durable and adjustable - a good deal for the 10+- bucks.


For those who are unaware, there are two lenses per eye: a pretty green glass one with a clear plastic one on top. Unfortunately, one of the plastic lenses arrived scratched, but it's something I can live with. The lenses are easily removed because the plastic ring in the very front unscrews. For some reason, the image used gives this ring a sort of "octogonal" look...which isn't the case with the actual goggles. They are very round, which is what I was hoping for.



The goggles are a bit larger than I would have expected, but I'm guessing this is normal for welding purposes. The plastic also digs into the skin around my nose a bit, and they aren't so comfortable resting on my forehead, so I'm going to add some thin rubber padding.

I plan on using these for a costume/welding, so I really can't complain much due to the great price.
These goggles are just begging to be customized with a fresh coat of paint, watch gears, and a new pair of lenses.

Have fun!
