5004.073 - Optrel Cotton Front Sweatband Replacement 2-Pack

Genuine Optrel Headgear Comfort Accessories

Maintain the hygiene and comfort of your welding equipment with the Optrel Front Headgear Sweatband (5004.073). Designed as a direct replacement for the original bands found on Optrel welding helmets, these sweatbands are an essential consumable for professional welders who wear their hoods for extended periods. This package contains two (2) front sweatbands, ensuring you always have a spare ready for rotation.

The sweatbands are manufactured from high-quality cotton, a material chosen for its superior absorbency and skin-friendly properties. In industrial environments, managing perspiration is critical not just for comfort, but for safety; sweat dripping into the eyes can cause temporary vision impairment at critical moments during a weld. These bands effectively wick moisture away from the forehead, keeping the welder dry and focused. Furthermore, the soft cotton texture prevents the plastic headgear from chafing against the skin, significantly reducing fatigue during long shifts.

Versatility is a key feature of the 5004.073 model. It is engineered to be compatible with all Optrel helmet headgear. Whether you are using a Crystal 2.0, a Panoramaxx, or an older e684 series helmet, these bands will fit securely and function perfectly. The installation process is straightforward, allowing for quick changes between shifts or when a fresh band is required. Beyond moisture management, these bands serve a dual purpose by adding a layer of thermal insulation in colder environments, making the cold plastic of the headgear more comfortable against the forehead.
