The Lincoln Electric solar-powered, auto-darkening K3035-1 Viking Street Rod Welding Helmet has a 4 x 5-in. cartridge and a 3.82 x 2.44-in. viewing area with internal controls. It offers continuous variable 9-13 shade, delay and sensitivity, a grind mode for weld prep or post-weld cleanup, and LCD optics for a clear, natural view. The outside of the cartridge features four independent arc sensors that help to prevent blind spots.

“The Lincoln Electric K3035-1 VIKING Street Rod Welding Helmet is comfortable to wear and very responsive to weld flash. It was very easy to adjust for fit and response time.”
“The auto darkening helmet has improved my welding skills so I hit the mark every time. The adjustments for sensitivity and delay are so incredible that I don’t even see a bit of flash. My previous helmet does not hold a candle to it.”
