Technical Features
- Lift-front lens mechanism: Allows the operator to flip the darkened lens up without removing the helmet, enabling quick transitions between welding and inspection tasks.
- Heat-treated #10 shade passive lens (2 in. × 4.3 in.): Provides fixed UV and IR protection at shade 10, suitable for standard MIG, TIG, and stick welding processes at appropriate amperage ranges.
- Clear glass protective lens (spatter shield): Positioned over the shade lens to intercept spatter and debris, extending the service life of the primary shade lens.
- Ratcheting-type headgear: Fully adjustable fit system allows tool-free sizing to accommodate a range of head sizes, improving comfort during extended wear.
- Impact-resistant polymer shell: Durable outer shell construction resists physical impact on the job site.
- ANSI Z87.1 certified: Meets established American National Standards Institute requirements for occupational eye and face protection.
- UV protection: Lens blocks ultraviolet radiation produced during the welding arc, protecting the operator's eyes and face.
Applications
- DIY and home-shop welding projects requiring basic arc eye and spatter protection.
- Light-duty MIG, stick, or flux-core welding where a fixed shade #10 passive lens is appropriate.
- Entry-level or occasional-use welding scenarios where an economical, ANSI-certified helmet is required.
- Situations where a lift-front design is preferred for frequent transitions between welding and visual inspection without helmet removal.
