KCP15134 - Jackson Safety HSL 100 Shadow Passive Welding Helmet - 4.5x5.25 Lens

Professional Grade Passive Protection

The Jackson Safety HSL 100 Shadow Welding Helmet (SKU: KCP15134) represents the gold standard in passive welding protection. Designed for professional fabricators who prefer the clarity and reliability of a fixed shade lens, this helmet features a substantial 4.5-inch by 5.25-inch viewing area. This expansive window allows for superior peripheral vision and a clear view of the weld puddle, which is critical for maintaining bead consistency and quality in manual welding processes.

Constructed from a high-grade thermoplastic material, the HSL 100 shell is engineered to withstand the rigors of heavy industrial environments. It offers impressive resistance to radiant heat, capable of enduring temperatures up to 350°F (177°C) without warping or compromising structural integrity. The shell's geometry is specifically designed with a narrow profile, enabling the operator to access tight, confined spaces where bulkier helmets would be obstructive. Furthermore, the extended front bib design provides enhanced coverage for the throat and neck area, offering superior protection against sparks, spatter, and radiant heat.

This unit comes pre-assembled with a standard Shade 10 mineral glass filter plate, making it ready for immediate deployment in Stick (SMAW) and MIG (GMAW) applications. The passive lens system eliminates the need for batteries or sensitivity adjustments, providing fail-safe protection that never runs out of power. For users looking to upgrade in the future, the standard retaining system is fully compatible with aftermarket 4.5" x 5.25" auto-darkening filters (ADF), offering versatility as technology or user preference evolves.

Compliance is key in industrial settings, and the KCP15134 meets or exceeds ANSI Z87.1 and CSA Z94.3 standards, ensuring it satisfies rigorous safety requirements across North America. The included ratcheting headgear allows for precise fitment adjustments, ensuring the helmet remains stable and comfortable throughout the workday.
