271346 - Miller Classic Series Metalworks Auto-Darkening Welding Helmet

Reliable Protection with the Miller Classic Series Metalworks Helmet

The Miller Classic Series Welding Helmet in the "Metalworks" graphic (SKU: 271346) represents an outstanding balance of performance, comfort, and value. Designed for both the serious hobbyist and the professional welder needing a reliable backup, this helmet features a variable shade auto-darkening lens that adjusts from shade #8 to #12. This range allows for safe operation across multiple welding processes, including MIG, Stick, and TIG welding (rated for 20 Amps). The light state of shade #3 ensures clear visibility during setup and repositioning without the need to constantly raise the hood.

Weighing in at just 16 ounces (454 g), the Classic Series is engineered to minimize neck strain, making it ideal for long days in the shop. The helmet is equipped with two independent arc sensors that provide redundant arc detection, ensuring the lens triggers instantly—within 1/10,000 of a second—at the strike of an arc. Power is managed efficiently through an Auto-On/Auto-Off control system, supported by a combination of solar cells and user-replaceable AAA alkaline batteries. This dual-power system ensures your helmet is always ready when you are.

Additional features include a built-in magnifying lens holder, allowing for the easy addition of "cheater" lenses for precision work. The helmet meets strict ANSI Z87.1+ (2010) and CSA standards, guaranteeing impact protection and optical clarity. Whether you are fabricating in a garage or performing maintenance in an industrial setting, the Miller Classic Series Metalworks helmet offers the essential features required for safe and effective welding.
