Strips Come In Different Colors and Widths

Weld Strip Colors

Welding strip colors vary based on customer preference. The amount of UV light blocked varies slightly from one color to another but all help reduce harmful UV rays. The darker the shade, the more UV light that it will block. Please remember, welding pvc strip curtains are not a substitute for welding helmets. They are made for indirect viewing of welding operations.

8" width x .080" thick (Most Common)

FAQ

Should I order the strips a little taller than the opening?
Only if you want, the wall mount hardware. With wall mount hardware, order the strips 152mm taller and 152mm wider than the opening you are trying to cover since you are mounting to the face of the opening. Otherwise, order the strips to the exact size of the opening.

Are the heights of the strips measured from the hole or the top of the strip?
The height is measured from the top of the strip to the bottom of the strip. The holes are located 19.05mm down from the top of the strip.

How do you cut the strips in the field?
You use a utility knife and a straight edge to keep the cut straight.

Do I need to cut the strips myself?
No. When you order a kit, we cut the strips to your specific opening height. However, we usually advise ordering a few centimeters longer than your exact opening height to allow for floor variations; you can easily trim the bottom with a Stanley knife after hanging them for a perfect fit.

What is the difference between "Minimum" and "Maximum" overlap?
Minimum Overlap: Uses fewer strips. The strips overlap slightly (usually ~50mm). This is easier for pedestrians to walk through and costs less. Best for internal partitions.
Maximum Overlap: Uses more strips with a deeper overlap (usually ~100mm). This creates a tighter seal against wind, rain, and cold. We recommend this for external doorways or areas where insulation is the top priority.
