A large viewing area and remote controls give you a better view of your workspace and the ability to easily adjust sensitivity, delay, shade, and usage mode with the hood down. The S1040 also features four darkening sensors, Vision+, and a 1/1/1/2 rating.

Kemppi S-line welding masks offer high-quality vision features, added comfort, and trusted safety technology at accessible prices. From professionals to welding enthusiasts, S-line helmets offer essential protection and added features from a trusted brand.

All welding helmets in the S-line range have auto-darkening for a hands-free transition between welding and the work environment. In a 2-sensor or 4-sensor auto-darkening configuration, the viewing area adapts to lighting conditions so you can keep your welding mask on between welds. S-line welding masks offer excellent visual clarity, and the Vision+ feature in the ADF delivers accurate, real-world visual realism, making objects in the work area easier to see with less eye strain.

With a 1/1/1/2 clarity rating and solid performance, all welding helmets in the standard S-line range offer essential protection for any welder.

Kemppi Welding Helmets FAQs

Practical answers on choosing, using and looking after branded auto-darkening, passive and grinding welding helmets.

Does an auto-darkening helmet still protect my eyes when the filter is clear?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Yes, in a correctly working filter. The clear (light) state is only a low shade for seeing the work before you strike the arc. Auto-darkening filters are designed to block ultraviolet and infrared radiation at all times, whether the filter is light or dark, and makers state this in their data sheets.

That protection does not make it safe to look at an arc through a filter that has failed to darken. If the filter ever stays light when you strike an arc, stop welding, close your eyes and check the helmet before carrying on. See the manual for what to do if it fails to switch.

How do I clean the filter and sensors?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Clean the filter surface regularly with clean water and a lint-free or microfibre cloth. Do not use strong cleaning solutions, solvents or oil-based products, which can damage the surface. Keep the arc sensors and the solar cells clean in the same way, because dirt or spatter on them can stop the filter darkening properly or make it flicker.

The shell and headband can usually be washed with a neutral detergent. Always follow the manual for your model, as materials differ.

What is a grinding helmet and can I weld in one?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

A grinding helmet is a face protector with a clear visor, built to guard against flying particles and impact when grinding or cutting. It has no welding filter, so it does not protect you from arc radiation.

Makers of grinding helmets state they are not suitable for welding, so never use one to look at an arc. If you do both jobs, you can fit a welding helmet with a flip-front or grind mode, or switch between a welding helmet and a separate grinding helmet. Check the markings and the manual to see what each is approved for.

Does a welding helmet protect me from welding fume?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

No. A standard welding helmet protects the eyes and face from radiation and spatter, but it is not respiratory protection. Welding fume is controlled first by removing or reducing it at source, and local extraction close to the weld is the main recommended control. Breathing equipment is normally a last resort or an additional safeguard, not the primary control.

If extraction cannot control the fume, a helmet combined with a powered air unit may be one way to add protection. Your risk assessment should decide what is needed.
