AUTO DARKENING WELDING MASKS

'True- View' technology allows work to be viewed through the welding filter lens with greater clarity, contract & colour in it's light state. True view is incorporated into the Foster Grind-Plus & Speedglas 9100xxi welding masks, amongst others.

Whilst most helmets now have true view technology, two of 3M's G series auto darkening welding masks boast 'natural colour' functionality. This comes in the form of the revolutionary Speedglas G5-01VC  heavy duty welding helmet & the G5-02, the ultimate TIG welding helmet. 

The G5-01VC welding mask also offers 'variable colour' functionality, with users selecting between warm, standard or cool colours. This headtop allows you to flip seamlessly between welding & grinding and is ideal for heavy MIG. The grinding head top can also be removed to reduce pay load on the neck, if only you're only welding.

The G5-01 boasts lots of feature such as bluetooth capability & side paddles meaning the head top can be moved further away or closer to the face. Speedglas Natural Colour Technology offers more realistic colour in the light state and dark state.

The Speedglas G5-02 is the first of it's kind to incorporate curved glass technology, following your heads curvature, expanding your peripheral vision and reducing distractions & reflections as a result. Using curved glass technology, the operator basically gets an expanded view of the job in a slimmer helmet. This helmet is designed for & ideal for TIG welders, as it enables a closer look at the intricate work that TIG welding demands. Four sensors in the welding filter, ensure allow for reliable light/dark switching at low amps.
