Custom
Welding Helmet
Welcome to the Custom Welding
Helmet home page. Welding helmets are an
essential safety item for all welders, and a custom one will
make you stand out from the crowd. Here's the low down on what
is
available.
Custom Welding
Helmets
The
traditional welding helmet was all about utility, not
looks. They work great, and there are plenty of choices
regarding the effectiveness and user-friendliness of the
helmet. An auto darkening variable shade welding helmet
make life a lot easier, and an air fed mask reduces the
risk of inhalation of harmful gases. But what a lot of
welders like is to be able to exhibit some individuality
and if you are going to be wearing the thing all day, why
not? This is where custom welding helmets enter the
picture, and the range is MASSIVE.
One thing to remember about the
custom welding helmet is that they still meet the
same stringent industry quality standards as the normal
headgear does. They offer auto-darkening lens facilities, a
wide angle viewing area, lightweight construction, adjustable
head straps and plenty of comfort, essential if you are wearing
it for hours at a time.
Custom
Welding Helmet Manufacturers
Plenty of the high class
auto-darkening welding helmet brands such as the Speedglas
welding helmet, the Miller models, the Optrel welding products,
and the helmets from Jackson welding equipment are all offered
with custom decals or airbrush designs with metallic paint
finishes. You can also buy the helmet from a bespoke company
that offers custom designs and hand painted finishes which are
a real work of art. Certainly not to be thrown around the
welding shop. Designs include, but are not limited to flames,
skull designs, grim reapers, sharks etc, but with the custom
welding helmet finishers, you can choose from a wide
range of designs, or make your own.
With
regards to cost, the auto darkening welding helmet is
generally a fair bit more expensive than the standard non
darkening models. Add the custom design to it and you can
be talking in the region of $100 upwards for a good
quality model. The auto darkening models are a lot larger
than the non darkening alternatives, and a little weight
is added by batteries and the auto darkening electronics.
Make sure you get a model that is the correct size for
you, and remember that you'll still need to utilize
welding hoods to ensure adequate safety and
protection.
Online is a great place to find all
the accessories a welder could want, from basic welding masks,
replacement lens parts, respirator accessories and custom
welding helmets. Amazon offer a good product range, but if you
really want to be as unique as possible, you may need to take
advantage of the genuine custom providers. Sticking with one of
the well known brands and getting it modified will ensure that
you get a good helmet that meets all safety standards, is
comfortable, and will provide you with years of quality
service. So get online and find yourself an outstanding
custom welding helmet.
