Speedglas Welding Supplies, In a Class of its Own:

Speedglas released the first auto-darkening welding helmet ever and continues to set the benchmark in professional welding helmet technology.

Welding PPE Made in Sweden:

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

Five Levels of Welding Protection

Head, Eye, Face, Respiratory and Hearing protection for welding safety.

Super Comfortable and Lightweight Safety Helmet

The safety helmet is made from heat-resistant polycarbonate and conforms to Australian and New Zealand standard AS/NZS1801 for head protection.

Positive Pressure Seal Keeps Pollutants at bay

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

Huge Clear & Curved Grinding Visor

A smooth flip-up function reveals a huge 170x100 mm clear grinding shield with 180 degree vision.

New Speedglas True-View

Speedglas 9100XXi True-View has literally changed the way welders see, making what you see through the lens appear lighter, more detailed and colourful.

Largest Viewing Area Available:

The huge 3M Speedglas 9100XXi lens combined with the Speedglas peripheral SideWindows gives you the largest viewing area available on the market.

Speedglas SideWindows

Previously hidden peripheral hazards (beams, obstacles and other workers) are now visible through two, shade 5 side lenses (conventional shade 13 protection).

Highest Optical Rating

Speedglas 9100 gives the welder the highest possible optical classification (1/1/1) and is compliant with AS/NZS1338.1.

Unrivalled Arc Detection and Switching

Photo-sensors capable of detecting an arc down to an industry-leading 1 amp with centre sensor for TIG applications.

All Applications with Multiple Welding Modes

With shades 3, 5, 8, 9-13 and multiple mode settings you can weld, cut, grind and tack, indoors and outdoors even with a completely hidden arc.

Auto-On

With Auto-On your welding mask is instantly ready to weld; programmed to your last used welding setting.

Compliant with all relevant Australian & New Zealand Standards

Compliant with Australian & New Zealand Standard AS/NZS1337.1 (high impact face protection), AS/NZS1338.1 (eye protection), AS/NZS1716 (respiratory protection), AS/NZS1801 (head protection) and AS/NZS1270 (optional hearing protection)

The Signature Speedglas Silver Front

The silver front on a Speedglas auto-darkening welding helmet is not just a design feature, it also reflects heat from the weld keeping you cool and comfortable.

Magnification Lens Holder

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

Speedglas Welding Equipment is a long term investment

All Speedglas 9100 lenses have custom designed multi-function programmed logic chips that minimise the number of discrete surface-mounted components; leading to improved reliability and longevity.

    The Effectiveness of Welding Fume Product Controls

    The Effectiveness Of Welding Fume Product Controls

    There are countless scientific studies that conclude that welding fume is bad for health, yet there seem to be very few that can give us practical guidance on how to effectively control welding fume exposure. Studies have done an effective job of defining the problem; however, few have been able to identify and compare the relative effectiveness of available product control solutions. Until now!

    Protecting Welders Against Ozone

    Protecting the Welder from Ozone – An Australian Scientific Study

    Ozone (O3) is an extremely toxic gas that is generated when ultraviolet radiation produced by the welding arc reacts with oxygen, which can cause serious health issues to unprotected welders. The main objective of this study was to understand the levels of ozone that an unprotected welder may be exposed to across a variety of common welding processes and whether a Welding Helmet with a Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) was an effective control in protecting the welder from exposure to ozone.
