OVERVIEW

Reliable Protection for Your Auto-Darkening Filter

The Lincoln Electric KP2898-1 Outside Cover Lens is a critical consumable designed to safeguard the advanced optics of your Viking series welding helmet. Engineered specifically for the Viking 750S, 2450, 3350, and Industrial Passive Series, these lenses provide the first line of defense against the harsh environment of industrial welding. By shielding your helmet's expensive Auto-Darkening Filter (ADF) from molten spatter, high-velocity impact, smoke, and heat, these cover lenses ensure the longevity and performance of your safety equipment.

High-Performance Material

Manufactured from premium-grade polycarbonate, these lenses offer superior impact resistance compared to standard plastic or glass alternatives. With a thickness of 1.0 mm (0.04 in), they are robust enough to withstand the rigors of heavy fabrication while maintaining excellent optical clarity. The lenses meet strict ANSI Z87.1 and CSA Z94.3 safety standards, certifying their ability to protect the user from high-mass and high-velocity impacts. This compliance is essential for industrial environments where safety regulations are paramount.

Precision Fit and Maintenance

Measuring 114 x 133 mm (4.5 x 5.25 inches), the KP2898-1 is precision-cut to fit the front retaining mechanism of compatible Lincoln helmets perfectly. A proper seal is vital to prevent smoke and fine particulate matter from bypassing the cover lens and damaging the ADF or obscuring the welder's vision. Regular replacement of the outside cover lens is a standard maintenance procedure; a pitted or scratched lens can cause arc flare, reduce visibility, and strain the welder's eyes. This package contains five (5) replacement lenses, allowing facility managers and individual welders to keep a ready stock of consumables for immediate change-outs, minimizing downtime and maintaining productivity.

Application Versatility

These lenses are suitable for all welding processes supported by the Viking helmet range, including Stick, TIG, MIG, and Flux-Cored welding. Whether used in general fabrication, pipeline construction, or automotive repair, the KP2898-1 ensures that the welder's view remains unobstructed and the equipment remains protected.

FAQ

The KP2898-1 fits Lincoln Electric Viking 750S, 2450, 3350, and Industrial Passive Series welding helmets.

The lens measures 114 x 133 mm, which is approximately 4.5 x 5.25 inches.

This is the **outside** cover lens, designed to protect the front of the ADF from spatter and impact.

This product is sold as a pack of 5 lenses.

It is made from high-impact polycarbonate, meeting ANSI Z87.1 and CSA Z94.3 standards.

While it measures a standard 4.5" x 5.25", it is specifically designed for the retention systems of Lincoln Viking helmets. Fitment on other brands is not guaranteed.

You should change the lens whenever it becomes pitted, scratched, or too dirty to clean effectively, as this impairs visibility and can cause arc flare.

The primary UV/IR protection is provided by the ADF itself; however, polycarbonate naturally blocks a significant amount of UV light, adding a layer of safety.
