3MH46-0500-01 - Speedglas G5-01 Helmet Mounted Work Light Kit

Enhance Operational Visibility with the 3M Speedglas G5-01 Task Light

In the demanding world of heavy industrial welding, visibility is paramount not only for the quality of the weld but for the safety of the operator. The 3M Speedglas G5-01 Task Light Kit (46-0500-01) is a premium accessory engineered specifically for the 3M Speedglas G5-01 Heavy-Duty Welding Helmet. This integrated lighting solution addresses the common challenge of working in poorly lit environments, such as inside tanks, pressure vessels, or complex structural assemblies, where external lighting cannot reach.

The kit is designed to provide a powerful, focused beam of light directly onto the workpiece, illuminating the weld joint and the surrounding area. This allows the welder to position the electrode with precision before striking the arc, reducing the likelihood of weld defects and rework. Unlike generic aftermarket lights that may require separate batteries or cumbersome mounting straps, this task light integrates seamlessly with the G5-01 helmet architecture. It draws power directly from the Adflo Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) battery or the helmet's power system, ensuring a consistent light source without adding significant weight or bulk to the headgear.

Durability is a key focus of the 3M design philosophy. The task light comes equipped with a robust outer protection plate. This clear shield protects the high-intensity LED lens from molten spatter, sparks, and soot, ensuring the longevity of the light unit itself. The protection plate is replaceable, allowing for cost-effective maintenance over the lifespan of the equipment. The kit includes everything required for installation, including the light unit, the protection plate, the necessary power cable, and cable clips to secure the wiring along the helmet shell, preventing snagging hazards in tight spaces.

By investing in the 3M Speedglas G5-01 Task Light, facilities can improve operator comfort and efficiency. Better lighting reduces eye strain and fatigue, allowing welders to maintain high standards of workmanship over long shifts. This accessory represents 3M's commitment to providing comprehensive solutions for professional welders.
