KP3940-1 - Lincoln Electric FR Head Cover Shroud for Viking 3350 PAPR

Lincoln Electric KP3940-1 VIKING 3350 PAPR Head Cover Shroud

The Lincoln Electric KP3940-1 is a critical replacement component designed specifically for the VIKING 3350 PAPR (Powered Air Purifying Respirator) welding helmet systems. In industrial welding environments, operator safety extends beyond just respiratory protection; physical protection from sparks, spatter, and radiant heat is equally paramount. This head cover shroud is engineered to provide that essential barrier, covering the top of the head and the back of the neck, areas that are often vulnerable during overhead or positional welding.

Constructed from high-quality flame-resistant (FR) materials, the KP3940-1 ensures that the welder remains protected from the intense heat and flying debris typical of heavy fabrication and high-amperage welding. The material is chosen not only for its protective qualities but also for its durability, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of daily industrial use without compromising its integrity. The shroud integrates seamlessly with the VIKING 3350 PAPR helmet shell, maintaining the sleek profile of the unit while adding a necessary layer of safety.

Installation is straightforward and tool-free, utilizing a robust hook and loop attachment system. This design allows for quick replacement in the field, minimizing downtime. Whether the original shroud has become worn from extensive use or damaged during operation, the KP3940-1 restores the helmet's full protective envelope. Furthermore, a properly fitted shroud assists in maintaining the positive pressure environment created by the PAPR blower unit, preventing particulate ingress from the top or back of the helmet assembly.

This product is compatible with Lincoln Electric's advanced PAPR configurations, including the VIKING 3350 XG PAPR Welding Helmet System with both Extended and Standard Battery options (K3930-6 and K3930-4). By using genuine Lincoln Electric replacement parts, safety managers and welders can ensure that their PPE continues to meet the manufacturer's rigorous safety standards and performance specifications.
