Welding Helmets

Welding helmets are your first line of defence against arc radiation, sparks and flying debris. This range covers the full kit: auto-darkening helmets for MIG, TIG and stick work, PAPR helmets with powered air for fume-heavy jobs, and the replacement lens kits, ADFs and shells that keep them in service — including UNIMIG Rogue hoods, Core Series lens kits and PAPR replacement parts.

Whether you weld in a workshop, on a construction site or in a manufacturing plant, there are lens shades, headgear options and spares here to match the job — with helmets from UNIMIG, CIGWELD and WIA.

Should I buy an auto-darkening or passive welding helmet?

For most trade work, auto-darkening. The lens switches from a light state to your working shade the instant the arc strikes, so you can position the torch with the helmet down and keep both hands on the job — fewer misfires, less neck flicking, better starts. A passive fixed-shade helmet is cheaper and has nothing to fail, which still suits occasional stick welding, but for production MIG or TIG the productivity gain from auto-darkening pays for itself quickly.
