OVERVIEW

Lincoln Viking 3350 Born To Weld: Precision Optics for the Professional

The Lincoln Electric Viking 3350 Born To Weld (K3616-4) represents the pinnacle of welding helmet technology, designed specifically for professional fabricators who demand the absolute best in optical clarity and comfort. As part of the 4th Generation of the renowned 3350 Series, this helmet integrates Lincoln's proprietary 4C Lens Technology. This advanced liquid crystal display (LCD) enhances the visible color spectrum, removing the lime-green tint found in standard auto-darkening filters. The result is a true-to-life view of the arc, puddle, and base material, allowing for greater control and higher quality welds.

Optical performance is quantified by a perfect 1/1/1/1 rating according to EN379 standards. This score confirms that the lens excels in four critical categories: optical class (blurriness), diffusion of light (clarity), variations in luminous transmittance (shade consistency), and angle dependence (uniformity). With an expansive 12.5 square inch viewing area, operators have a wide field of vision, reducing the need for constant head movement and improving situational awareness in complex fabrication environments.

Comfort is paramount during long shifts, and the K3616-4 addresses this with the innovative X6 Headgear. This system contours to the operator's head, distributing weight evenly across six key contact points to eliminate pressure and optimize balance. The helmet also features a low-profile external grind button, allowing welders to switch seamlessly between weld and grind modes without removing their gloves or lifting the helmet, thereby maintaining safety and productivity.

FAQ

4C Lens Technology is Lincoln Electric's proprietary LCD technology that broadens the color range and hues seen through the lens. It eliminates the traditional green tint, providing a 'Real Color View' that reduces eye strain and improves control over the weld puddle.

The Lincoln Viking 3350 Born To Weld 4th Gen helmet is backed by a 5-Year Hassle-Free Warranty from Lincoln Electric.

Yes, it features an external low-profile grind button that allows you to switch between weld and grind modes quickly without lifting the helmet.

The helmet uses a standard CR2450 replaceable battery, which works in conjunction with the solar assist feature to extend battery life.

Yes, the Viking 3350 series is hard hat compatible. You will need a hard hat adapter, such as the Halo Style (KP3047-1) or Slotted Style (KP3486-1), sold separately.

The helmet features an extra-large viewing area of 12.5 square inches (3.74 inches x 3.34 inches), providing a wide field of view.

Yes, the Viking 3350 is compatible with cheater (magnifying) lenses. The KP3046 series lenses can be easily installed into the lens cartridge holder.

The Viking 3350 is TIG rated for as low as 2 Amps, making it excellent for precision low-amperage TIG welding applications.
