An auto-darkening welding helmet is a type of personal protective equipment (PPE) used in welding to protect the eyes, face, and neck from flash burns, sparks, infrared and ultraviolet light, and intense heat. The modern welding helmet used today was first introduced in 1937 by Willson Products.

Welding helmets are most commonly used in arc welding processes such as shielded metal arc welding, gas tungsten arc welding, and gas metal arc welding. They are necessary to prevent arc eye, a painful condition where the cornea is inflamed.

Welding helmets come in a variety of styles and features, but all share the same basic function: to protect the wearer from the hazards of welding.

Why buy our Auto Darkening Welding Helmet?

Some of the most common features of our welding helmets include:

• An auto-darkening lens that darkens instantly when exposed to the bright light of an arc.
• A side shield that protects the eyes from sparks and debris.
• A headgear that is adjustable to fit different head sizes.
• A ventilation system that helps to keep the wearer cool.
