A new flip-up welding helmet has
been introduced by ESAB. Called
Globe-Arc, it has a hybrid shell made
from Zytel material, offers full head
and face protection and is
lightweight.
The helmet's compact design allows the wearer to weld in tight spaces, while reducing visible light entering the back of the helmet caused by other welding light.
The visor has an upper retention stop which eliminates visor dropdown when welding or grinding.
The visor provides effective protection from UV and IR radiation. A wide field of vision is afforded through the large main and flip-up visors.
