K3035-3 - Lincoln Viking 2450 Street Rod Auto-Darkening Helmet

Industry-Leading Optics and Performance

The Lincoln Electric VIKING™ 2450 Street Rod© Welding Helmet (K3035-3) represents the pinnacle of optical performance in the mid-tier helmet category. Engineered for professional fabricators who demand precision, this helmet features Lincoln's proprietary 4C® Lens Technology. This advanced filter broadens the color range and hues that can be seen in both light and dark states, effectively eliminating the traditional lime-green tint found in standard auto-darkening filters. The result is a true-to-life view of the weld puddle, arc, and base material, which enhances control and reduces eye strain during long shifts.

The 2450 Series is defined by its perfect 1/1/1/1 Optical Clarity rating according to EN379 standards. This rating certifies that the lens offers zero blur, zero distortion, consistent shade across the lens, and consistent shade at angles. With a substantial 9.3 square inch viewing area, operators have a wide field of vision, improving situational awareness and safety. The helmet is equipped with four independent arc sensors, ensuring reliable switching from light to dark in 1/25,000 of a second, even when welding out of position or at very low amperages (TIG rated down to 2 amps).

Comfort is paramount in the design of the K3035-3. It utilizes the innovative X6 Headgear, which contours to the operator's head to distribute weight evenly across six key contact points. This reduces pressure and improves balance, minimizing neck fatigue. The shell features the "Street Rod" graphic, providing a durable and distinct aesthetic suitable for industrial environments. Additional productivity features include an external grind button, allowing users to switch modes without lifting the helmet, and a comprehensive 3-year warranty.
