With the launch of the new 3M Speedglas G5-03 Pro Air welding helmet series, many workplaces around Australia and New Zealand have upgraded their worker’s welding helmets to the latest technology from 3M Speedglas.
The Speedglas G5-03 Pro Air welding helmets allow welders to benefit from new-to-world technology (including new TAP functionality), massive views and airflow climate control in a lightweight, slim, fixed-front welding shield.
For optimal flexibility onsite, many of the core Speedglas G5‑03 Pro Air parts are also compatible with the industry-leading Speedglas G5-01 flip-up welding helmet. If your team already run Speedglas G5-01 on site, this allows you to hold less spare part inventory, while retaining the flexibility you need to customise your equipment.
