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

I’ve been using them to observe thermite reactions and I can safely look directly at my experiments without any danger or discomfort, plan to recommend these for my colleagues for durability and protection

I am not a welder, but my occupation does require me to wear eye protection from heat and loose debris. I was looking for something less conservative than the usual safety goggles and this product is just what I wanted. Not only will I be able to wear them at work, but I can throw them on for costume parties and other outdoor activities where I might need eye protection from the sun.Product has an elastic head band that might break with little wear. The bridge band that joins the two eye coverings is adjustable via a beaded chain. I recommend taking your time and adjusting the bridge band for a comfortable fit. I wore it as it came and ended up with a bit of a headache due to excessive pressure on the bridge of my nose (bad idea). Each eye of the goggle assemblies has an adjustable valve for moisture ventilation which is very useful in preventing lenses from fogging when working and sweating.I was satisfied with this product, but in a practical capacity for which the product was designed: welding. I am unable to comment.

I found these goggles when looking for a pair to modify for steampunk cosplay. They were inexpensive and seemed easy to work with. They came with 2 sets of lenses, one clear and one dark welding set. The strap is black elastic with a blue design over it. It was easy to remove and replace with leather. The pieces are all easy to take apart and put back together which makes painting them a snap. The covers of the air vents are also removable so I was able to paint them and decorate them as well. I find them to be comfortable enough, the area around the nose is all hard plastic but unless you have them on super tight it's no worse than wearing plastic sunglasses. The goggles are held together at the nose by a ball chain. It's quite long for me, so I found the sweet spot and trimmed the excess for fear of poking my eye out :)For anyone interested here's how they came out with just a few slight moderations : [...]

I bought these goggles and US Forge 108 Shaded #5 Economy Cup Brazing Goggles, figuring that one would be better than the other for a passive infrared goggle project. However, what I found was the US Forge goggles were identical in every way -- right down to the markings from the injection molding machine and the blue stripes in the elastic band. The only difference is that the Hobart goggles come with more packaging (a hard plastic box) while the US Forge goggles come in a sealed printed plastic bag.As goggles go, they are perfectly usable although not overly comfortable. The eye-to-eye spacing is adjustable with a beaded chain (if you shorten it, cut the tails so you don't bonk yourself in the eye like I did).

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!

These goggles worked perfectly for my cosplay the black frames are glass and fog up easily but the clear frames are hard plastic and don’t fog up easily they are better than the other brands I’ve bought before

I got these goggles on sale for about 7 or 8 bucks and they are completely worth it. I think everyone knows what goggles are so I'll outline what I think is different about these goggles than others.First they are made of hard plastic all around. I've seen some that are made of like a flimsy rubber plastic and these are much more durable.Second, these goggles have a vent on the side of each eye piece that allow for ventilation and greatly reduce if not eliminate all together the goggles fogging up during use.Third, there are two sets of lenses. A set of thin clear plastic lenses over thicker glass lenses which provide the tinting for welding and cutting. If you are going to use these for general purpose shop work, then I suggest you manufacture your own clear lenses out of lexan or something similar, as the clear lenses it comes with won't protect your eyes from any sizable flying debris.Overall I'm very satisfied with them!

They work great! Fit snug, tint it perfect, and would buy another pair for sure
