618830 3M™ Speedglas™ G5-01VC Heavy-Duty Welding Helmet with Versaflo V-500E SAR

All Speedglas welding helmets are made in Sweden with every lens still checked by hand.

Super comfortable welding face seal follows the contours of both the helmet and the face to provide a positive pressure seal from pollutants. The exclusive airflow pattern of the respiratory welding mask evenly distributes filtered air throughout the entire breathing zone of the welder.

Designed specifically for heavy-duty applications, the Speedglas G5-01VC auto-darkening lens features an extra-dark shade of 14 for high amperage welding.

Speedglas Variable Colour Technology lets you choose between natural, cool and warm tones for your dark state. You determine which colour tone provides the best contrast for your welds, and the most comfort for your eyes.

View your welds through a massive 73 x 109mm viewing area, with even greater clarity. 3M Speedglas True-View has literally changed the way welders see, making what you see through the lens appear lighter, more detailed and colourful.

A smooth flip-up function reveals an extra-large 170×104 mm clear grinding visor – 16% larger than the Speedglas 9100 FX Air. For extended non-welding work, users can completely remove the welding visor – reducing the helmet weight by over 35%.

An innovative helmet duct system lets you take control over the direction of your airflow, for extra comfort in hot conditions. All adjustments can be made while wearing the helmet, maintaining your eye, face and respiratory protection.

The G5-01 is compatible with a range of extra protection options to suit your welding environment and needs. The range of extended head and neck covers are available in leather, fabric and high-visibility options.

The Speedglas G5-01 lens features Bluetooth functionality, allowing you to change lens settings, review welding statistics and access user manuals – all from the palm of your hand. Program up to four memory modes for easy switching.

A new, optional helmet-mounted task light provides hours of powerful lighting for welding in poorly lit spaces.

Streamlined profile gives more coverage for welders’ ears, head and neck.

Photo-sensors capable of detecting an arc down to an industry-leading 1 amp. With Auto-On your welding helmet is instantly ready to weld; programmed to your last used welding setting.

Speedglas heavy-duty welding helmet G5-01 gives the welder the highest possible optical classification (1/1/1) and is compliant with AS/NZS1338.1.

With shades 3, 5, 8, 9-14 and multiple mode settings you can weld, cut, grind and tack, indoors and outdoors even with a completely hidden arc.

Compliant with Australian & New Zealand Standard AS/NZS1337.1 (high impact face protection), AS/NZS1338.1 (eye protection) and AS/NZS1716 (respiratory protection).

An improved headband design sets the industry benchmark for comfort and ergonomics. The harness distributes weight perfectly, avoids sensitive areas and allows for complete customisation to your head. An extra-large back pad offers enhanced comfort.

Built-in holder for magnifying lenses makes attaching the lens easier and optimises the position for better vision.

The Speedglas G5-01 helmet has a custom designed multi-function programmed logic chip that minimises the number of discrete surface-mounted components; leading to improved reliability and longevity.

The Speedglas G5-01 features a revolving three year warranty. Experience a problem with the welding mask in the first three years and your 3 year warranty protection starts again. Speedglas helmets are built to last.

Lightweight belt mounted regulator with high airflow rates (170 to 305 litres per minute) makes the V-500E supplied air regulator ideal for hot and strenuous welding conditions.

The 3M V-500E regulator provides a required minimum protection factor of 100+ for mechanically and thermally generated particles and conforms to Australian & New Zealand Standard AS/NZS1716 (respiratory protection).

The exclusive airflow pattern of the welding respiratory helmets evenly distributes a constant level of filtered air throughout the entire breathing zone of the welder. A diffuser spreads out the airflow pattern for your maximum comfort.

The airline supply (supplied via a compressor) must be of breathable quality meeting the performance standards of AS/NZS1716. Oil, mist, water vapour or non-toxic, unpleasant odours are removed from the compressed air through use of a breathing air filtration system which connects to the V-500E regulator through a breathable air hose. Please view the brochure for more detailed information or contact AWS.

The Quick Release Swivel (QRS) allows for one handed connection and release. The self-adjusting length means the hose is always kept close to the welder to prevent snagging on surrounding objects.

The V-500E Regulator features an integrated low flow warning whistle and a silencer that reduces the regulator’s noise level to less than 65 dBA – the equivalent of a typical conversation.
