The Fibre-Metal 4906 Grey Welding Helmet is engineered specifically for heavy industrial environments where head protection is mandatory. This model features the renowned 4000 Series shell design, molded from high-performance Noryl thermoplastic. Unlike standard polyethylene helmets, Noryl provides exceptional heat resistance, maintaining its structural integrity even in high-amperage welding applications or overhead environments where spatter and slag are constant hazards. The material is inherently robust, offering high impact resistance while remaining lightweight enough to minimize neck strain during prolonged shifts.
A key feature of this configuration is the inclusion of the 4001 Quick-Lok mounting cups. These cups are designed to permanently attach to compatible hard hats, allowing the welding helmet to be snapped on or off in seconds. This modularity is critical for workers who move between welding tasks and general construction duties, ensuring that safety compliance is maintained without the hassle of constantly swapping headgear. The mounting mechanism is secure, preventing the helmet from shifting during use, yet releases easily when the welding task is complete.
The shell geometry is designed with the welder's health and comfort in mind. It features an exclusive airflow design that helps evaporate perspiration, keeping the welder cooler in hot environments. Furthermore, the extended throat guard offers superior protection against rising fumes and smoke, directing them away from the breathing zone. The seamless shell construction ensures that spatter simply deflects off the surface, reducing the risk of burn-throughs and extending the service life of the equipment. The grey color is molded directly into the resin, eliminating the risk of peeling paint or fading.
Equipped with a standard 2" x 4.25" lift-front glass holder, this helmet provides versatility for fit-up and inspection work. The telescoping lid ensures a light-tight seal when closed, protecting the welder's eyes from arc flash. When the arc is extinguished, the user can simply flip up the filter plate to view the workpiece through the clear safety plate (sold separately) or to perform light grinding, all without removing the helmet or compromising hard hat protection.
