OVERVIEW

Comprehensive Head and Neck Protection for T94 Series

The Miller T94 Top Helmet Cape (279080) is an essential safety accessory designed exclusively for the T94, T94i, and T94i XL welding helmet series. In industrial environments where overhead welding or heavy spatter is common, standard helmet coverage may not be sufficient to protect the top of the head and the back of the neck. This premium cape bridges that gap, providing a robust barrier against molten metal, sparks, and intense ultraviolet radiation generated during the welding arc.

Constructed from high-quality flame-resistant (FR) cotton, the cape offers reliable thermal protection without adding significant weight to the helmet assembly. The material is breathable enough to maintain comfort during long shifts while being durable enough to withstand the rigors of daily fabrication work. By shielding the operator's skin and clothing from direct exposure to hazards, it reduces the risk of burns and long-term UV damage.

Beyond physical protection, the T94 Top Helmet Cape serves a critical optical function. Ambient light entering from behind the welder can reflect off the inner lens cover, causing glare and washing out the view of the weld pool. This cape effectively seals off the back of the helmet, eliminating this distracting back lighting. The result is a clearer, higher-contrast view of the work area, allowing for greater precision and reduced eye fatigue. Installation is straightforward and secure, utilizing a Velcro attachment system that ensures the cape stays in place during movement.
