Breathe Easy, Weld Clearly: Introducing the 3M Speedglas G5-01 Heavy Duty Welding Mask with Adflo PAPR
The 3M Speedglas G5-01 Heavy Duty Welding Mask with Adflo Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) system represents the pinnacle of welding safety and user experience. This industry-leading combination delivers uncompromising eye, face, and respiratory protection for professional welders tackling even the most demanding projects.
The G5-01 welding mask boasts the innovative 3M Speedglas Natural Colour Technology, providing a remarkably clear view of your weld pool in the light state (Shade 3). This reduces eye strain and fatigue, allowing you to work longer with greater precision. The variable colour auto-darkening filter (ADF) automatically adjusts to your welding application, with shades ranging from 5 (cutting) to a variable 8-14 (welding). Additionally, the G5-01 features a large viewing area (73 x 109 mm) for exceptional peripheral, upward, and side visibility, enhancing your situational awareness.
The integrated 3M Adflo PAPR system supplies a constant stream of filtered air, protecting you from harmful welding fumes and particles. The ergonomic design ensures comfortable wear throughout your workday, even in tight spaces, while the detachable grinding headtop allows you to switch seamlessly between welding and grinding tasks.
