Lincoln Welding Helmets FAQs

Practical answers on choosing, checking and looking after an auto-darkening or powered air welding helmet.

When should I replace the front cover lens?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Replace it when it is cracked, scratched, pitted or heavily covered in spatter. A damaged or dirty cover lens reduces how clearly you can see the weld and, on some helmets, can interfere with the sensors so the filter flickers or does not darken properly.

The cover lens is there to take the wear so the filter behind it does not. Fit the new one with its gasket the same way round as the old one, and use the part specified in your helmet's manual rather than a lens that only looks similar.

How should I clean the lens and sensors?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Wipe the cover lens and the sensors gently with a soft, clean, lint-free cloth. Mild soap and water is usually fine if the manual allows it. Avoid solvents, abrasive cleaners and strong chemicals, which can damage the plastic and the filter.

Do not spray liquid directly onto the helmet, as it can get into the electronics. Keep the sensors and any solar cells clean, because dirt on them can make the lens slow or unreliable. Always follow the cleaning advice in the manual for your helmet.

Am I still protected if the battery goes flat or the helmet is switched off?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

Auto-darkening filters are normally built with permanent ultraviolet and infrared protection, whether or not the electronics are working. That does not mean you can see to weld, and it does not mean a failed filter is safe to use: the lens will not darken, so you could be dazzled by the arc.

Check the markings and instructions for your filter to see what protection it states. If it fails to darken, stop welding, fit a fresh battery or replace the filter as the manual directs, and repeat the test before you carry on.

How do I choose the right shade for the job?icon-minus-redicon-plus-red

The shade needed depends on the welding process, the current you are using and sometimes the electrode or wire size. Higher currents and brighter processes generally need a darker shade. The helmet's manual or the filter maker's shade guide shows suitable settings for each process and current.

A common approach is to start with a darker shade than you think you need, then step lighter until you can see the weld pool comfortably without glare. Never choose a shade that is too light just to see better. Variable shade filters make this easier because you can adjust it between jobs.
