14 mil translucent blue vinyl welding station, sold by the square foot

14 mil blue translucent vinyl – Custom sheet for welding curtains (sold by the square foot)

14 mil blue translucent vinyl is a specialized material designed to provide visual and safety protection in welding environments. Thanks to its robust, highly resistant PVC formulation, this sheet provides a reliable barrier against the dangerous ultraviolet radiation produced by MIG and TIG welding processes.

Its controlled transparency allows partial visibility of the activity while reducing light intensity to prevent glare, improve the safety of nearby employees, and maintain a comfortable working environment. This material is ideal for industrial workshops, garages, training centers, production lines, or any area requiring secure separation.

Each sheet is cut to size by the square foot, according to the dimensions you provide. This gives you a curtain that is perfectly adapted to the configuration of your workstation, with the option of adding eyelets at the top or around the perimeter for quick and durable installation.

Ordering and customer service

For all orders or custom projects:

1. Clearly indicate the height, width, and location of the grommets.
2. Provide the final dimensions of the curtain (width and height).
3. Indicate the location of the grommets: at the top of the curtain, top and sides or around the entire perimeter of the curtain.
4. For an estimate or specific needs, contact our customer service department: we will help you determine the best configuration for your workshop.

Important: The minimum order is $75 per type of material.

Tips for measuring correctly before ordering

To ensure a perfectly fitted curtain:

1. Measure the total width.

Add a margin if you are using a rail system or if the curtain needs to provide additional coverage.

2. Measure the actual height

Take into account the distance between the mounting point and the floor.

3. Determine the type of eyelets

• Top only = standard installation
• Full perimeter = reinforced installation or uniform tension

4. If you are unsure, our customer service team can help you confirm your configuration to avoid any mistakes.

FAQ – Frequently asked questions about blue translucent vinyl.

1. Does this vinyl really protect against UV rays from welding ?

Yes. This material is specially formulated to absorb harmful ultraviolet rays, particularly those produced during TIG and MIG operations. It significantly reduces the risk of glare and accidental exposure.

2. Can you see through blue translucent vinyl ?

Yes, but visibility is controlled.

You will see silhouettes and light, but not specific details: ideal for monitoring an area without compromising safety.

3. Can this curtain be installed on any support ?

Yes. Thanks to the grommets installed every 12 inches, this curtain can be attached to :

• a rail
• hooks
• cables
• a metal frame
• a wall bar

4. Is the 12-inch spacing between grommets mandatory ?

This is the industry standard. This spacing ensures the best fit and optimal durability.
