3M™ Speedglas™ launches three new welding shields

Tuesday, 10 January 2012 03:09 Written by AWS Supplies

Experience the future of welding  protection.

3M™ Speedglas™ has just launched three major welding shields: the 3M™ Speedglas™ 9100 Air (respiratory) welding shield, the 3M™ Speedglas™ 9100 FX (flip-up) welding shield, and the 3M™ Speedglas™ 9100 FX Air (flip-up/respiratory) welding shield. The flip-up versions feature a clear 17x10cm protective visor which is not only large but also curved, creating brand new shield geometry. That geometry and the visor’s curvature, allow for a remarkably wide, clear field of view in all directions: up, down, and 170° side-to-side. The clear visor is perfect for grinding or precision weld preparation under low light conditions – while all the time providing high impact and optional powered or supplied air respiratory protection.

The new shields are fully compatible with the premium Speedglas 9100 auto-darkening welding lenses, including the 9100XX, which is 85% larger than a standard sized Speedglas 9100 welding lens. In addition, all welding shields within the Speedglas 9100 range are compliant to Australian Standard AS/NZS 1337.1 for high impact. The Speedglas 9100 series welding lenses have unprecedented optical quality. Featuring variable dark shades 5,8,9-13, a grind mode and a tack mode, the Speedglas 9100 lenses can be used on virtually all arc welding processes, including low-amperage TIG - even on settings as low as 1 amp.

When used with either the award winning 3M™ Adflo™ Powered Air-Purifying Respirator (PAPR) or Fresh-air™ C Supplied Air Regulator (SAR), the new 3M Speedglas 9100 Air and 9100 FX Air Welding Shields provide high levels of respiratory protection from welding particulate matter, fumes and gases. Workers can have complete face, eye and respiratory protection, whether they are grinding, welding, or simply walking through a work zone. The 3M Speedglas 9100 FX Air shield has revolutionised the manner by which airflow is delivered to the welder resulting in improved protection and comfort.

The three new models add a new level of innovation in comfort, vision, flexibility and performance to the Speedglas 9100 series welding shields.
