Elliott Australia has supplied cover and filter lenses to the welding industry for than 15 years.

Elliott Australia’s range of welding lenses includes both cover and filter lenses, offering protection across a broad range of welding situations.

Cover lens – first layer offering protection from spatter and other debris.

Filter lens – Glass filter or Omni-View providing protection from infra-red and ultra violet radiation.

Cover Lens
The cover lenses in the Elliott Australia range are optically correct lenses with a surface providing the highest resistance to welding spatter. A cover lens is designed to go in front of the filter lens regardless of whether a filter or an Omni-View lens is used.

A cover lens, generally known as a CR39 for a Colombian Resin lens:

• provides protection for the glass filter lens from heat and welding spatter
• reduces time and money spent in replacing filter lenses
• outlasts other types of cover lenses

Elliott Australia cover lenses are available in two sizes:

• 2” x 4 ¼” or 50mm x 106mm, packaged individually in clear plastic
• 50mm round – suitable for Oxy Welding (gas Welding) goggles.
