OVERVIEW

Precision Vision for Professional Results

The ArcOne Universal Diopter Mag Lens +1.50 (UML-150) is an essential accessory for professional fabricators and welders who demand absolute clarity in their work. Designed to address the visual challenges inherent in precision welding tasks, this optical-grade magnifying lens provides a +1.50 diopter correction, effectively functioning as a high-quality pair of reading glasses integrated directly into your welding helmet. By bringing the weld puddle and joint into sharp focus, it allows for tighter arc control, better bead placement, and reduced rework caused by visual errors.

Engineered for versatility, the UML-150 features a universal form factor compatible with the standard 2" x 4" rear retaining systems found in the majority of welding helmets on the market. Whether your helmet utilizes a 5x4" or 4x5" main filter assembly, this magnifying lens is designed to replace or sit adjacent to the rear cover plate. It supports both vertical and horizontal mounting configurations, ensuring that regardless of your specific gear brand—be it Miller, Lincoln, or others with standard retention slots—you can achieve the visual enhancement necessary for high-spec jobs.

Installation is seamless and requires no tools. The lens simply slides into the existing retention frame behind the auto-darkening or passive filter. This positioning protects the mag lens from spatter and heat while placing the magnification exactly where the operator needs it. For quality control inspectors, TIG welders working on micro-joints, or any professional experiencing eye fatigue, the ArcOne Universal Mag Lens is a low-cost, high-impact solution for maintaining peak performance and weld quality.

FAQ

The UML-150 provides a +1.50 diopter magnification, which is similar to wearing +1.50 reading glasses.

It is designed to fit any welding helmet that uses a standard 2" x 4" (approx. 50mm x 108mm) rear retaining frame or cheater lens holder.

The lens should be installed on the inside of the helmet, behind the main auto-darkening or passive filter, replacing or sitting in front of the rear cover plate.

The lens is typically manufactured from optical-grade polycarbonate or acrylic plastic to ensure it is lightweight and impact-resistant.

Yes, it is fully compatible with ADFs. It sits behind the ADF cartridge, closest to your eyes.

No adapter is usually needed if your helmet has a standard 2x4 retention slot. Some specific proprietary helmets might require a specific frame, but this fits most universal mounts.

No, this is a vision aid only. You should always wear ANSI-rated safety glasses under your welding helmet for primary impact protection.

The unit dimensions are approximately 2 inches by 4 inches, designed to match standard industry cover plate sizes.
