Speedglas

3M™ Speedglas™ is well established as the brand of choice for professional welders, with over 1 million active users worldwide. This reputation was not built overnight, but is the result of decades of innovation that began with the first ever auto-darkening welding helmet in 1981.

Since then, Speedglas™ has consistently set the industry benchmark for vision, comfort, performance and protection. This culminates in a respiratory welding helmet range that pairs state-of-the-art Speedglas helmets with one of the most popular welding respirators in the world; the award-winning 3M™ Adflo™ PAPR.

These systems supply a constant flow of clean air to the welder’s breathing zone to prevent exposure to carcinogenic welding fume. To that end, a Speedglas™ welding helmet with Adflo PAPR offers a Required Minimum Protection Factor (RMPF) of 50, delivering a minimum 50 times cleaner air than the welder would otherwise breathe unprotected.

This elite respiratory protection is then combined with True-View optics for improved colour and contrast, arc detection down to a market-leading 1 Amp and a selection of new-to-world technology that must be tried to be believed.

While other products and brands have come and gone, 3M™ Speedglas™ has continued to lead from the front as the #1 brand in welder’s PPE; guided by welders’ input and dedicated to ensuring their safety.
