Prepared for air

Building on the popularity of the
Globe-Arc universal flip-front
welding helmet, ESAB
has launched the
Globe-Arc
prepared for
Air, a helmet
that is identical
in terms of full
head and face
protection and a
flip-up welding visor, but with
provision for a fresh air supply. This
combination of features will suit
welders who need a compact,
lightweight helmet for use with an
air supply, says the company.

In common with the existing
Globe-Arc, the new Globe-Arc
prepared for Air benefits from a
fixed Shade 2 or Shade 3
visor for operations such as
grinding, and a flip-up
Shade 8 or Shade 10
welding visor that,
when down, still
provides a clear view
through the bottom portion of the
fixed visor. Both visors give a wide
field of vision for ease of use and
safety, yet the welder is at all times
protected from UV and IR radiation.
