There is no piece of safety equipment more important for a welder than their headshield. A high-quality welding helmet protects you from dangerous UV/IR radiation, high-intensity visible light, sparks, and spatter. Our comprehensive collection includes a solution for every application and budget, from simple passive masks to the most advanced respiratory systems. Choosing the right welding mask depends on the type of welding you do, your environment, and how often you work.

Our range is broken down into several key areas to help you find what you need. This includes our full range of traditional headshields, with passive models that have a fixed shade lens, and advanced auto-darkening helmets that automatically switch from light to dark the moment you strike an arc.

For professional welders working in enclosed spaces or on materials that produce heavy fumes like stainless steel and aluminium, an air-fed (PAPR) system is crucial for respiratory safety. These kits provide a constant flow of clean, filtered air to the user. To maintain your equipment, we also offer a huge selection of replacement lenses, batteries, sweatbands, and other welding helmet accessories to ensure your gear is always in perfect working order.

When you want to buy welding mask online, we make it simple. Take advantage of our welding helmet discount pricing and expert UK-based support.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a welding mask cost?
The cost of a welding mask in the UK typically ranges from £20 to £300, depending on the type and features. Basic models are more affordable, while advanced auto-darkening masks with additional safety features can be pricier. Always consider quality and comfort!
How to tell if a welding helmet is working?
To check if a welding helmet is working, ensure the auto-darkening feature activates when exposed to bright light. Test it by briefly exposing the lens to sunlight; it should darken immediately. Also, inspect for any cracks or damage on the helmet.
How to use welding helmet?
To use a welding helmet, first adjust the headgear for a snug fit. Ensure the lens is clean and set the shade according to your welding type. Always lower the helmet before starting to weld to protect your eyes from harmful UV and IR radiation. Stay safe!
Should you wear a respirator when welding?
Yes, wearing a respirator when welding is essential to protect against harmful fumes and particles. Welding produces toxic gases and metal vapours that can cause respiratory issues. Always prioritise safety by using appropriate personal protective equipment, including a respirator.
What are pancake welding hoods used for?
Pancake welding hoods are designed for overhead and vertical welding tasks. Their low-profile design offers excellent visibility and comfort, while providing effective protection from UV rays and sparks. Ideal for professional welders needing mobility and safety.
What are welding helmets made of?
Welding helmets are typically made from durable materials like polycarbonate or fiberglass for the outer shell, providing impact resistance. The lens is often made from special glass or plastic that can withstand high temperatures and filter harmful UV/IR radiation.
What does PPE stand for in welding?
PPE stands for Personal Protective Equipment in welding. It includes essential gear such as helmets, gloves, goggles, and protective clothing designed to safeguard welders from hazards like sparks, heat, and harmful UV radiation during the welding process.
What is a good welding helmet?
A good welding helmet should offer excellent visibility, adjustable shade levels, and a comfortable fit. Look for features like auto-darkening lenses, lightweight materials, and a robust design. Brands like ESAB, Miller, and Lincoln Electric are highly recommended in the UK.
What is ADF?
ADF stands for Auto-Darkening Filter, a crucial component in welding helmets. It automatically adjusts the lens shade in response to the brightness of the welding arc, providing optimal eye protection and visibility. This enhances safety and comfort for welders.
What is PPE in welding?
PPE in welding refers to Personal Protective Equipment essential for safeguarding welders from hazards. This includes helmets with appropriate filters, gloves, flame-resistant clothing, safety boots, and eye protection to prevent burns, sparks, and harmful UV exposure.
What is the best auto darkening welding lens?
The best auto darkening welding lens often depends on personal preference and specific needs. However, popular choices include the Optrel Panoramaxx and the Lincoln Electric Viking series, known for their clarity, responsiveness, and comfort. Always consider your welding type!
What is the best welding helmet?
The best welding helmet depends on your needs, but popular choices include the Miller Digital Elite and the ESAB Sentinel A50. Look for features like auto-darkening, comfort, and a wide viewing area. Always prioritise safety and compliance with UK standards.
What is the best welding hood?
The best welding hood depends on your specific needs. Popular choices include the Lincoln Electric Viking 3350 for its clarity and comfort, and the ESAB Sentinel A50 for its advanced features. Look for adjustable shade, comfort fit, and good visibility for optimal performance.
What safety gear is needed for MMA welding?
For MMA welding, essential safety gear includes a quality welding helmet with appropriate shade, flame-resistant gloves, protective clothing (such as a welding jacket), safety boots, and safety goggles. Additionally, a respirator may be needed for fume protection.
What to look for in a welding helmet?
When choosing a welding helmet, consider the lens type (auto-darkening is preferred), comfort and weight, adjustable headgear, and safety ratings. Look for a wide viewing area, UV/IR protection, and a suitable shade range for your welding processes.
Why do you need a welding helmet?
A welding helmet is essential for protecting your eyes and face from harmful UV and infrared rays, sparks, and molten metal. It ensures safety while allowing you to see your work clearly. Investing in a quality helmet is crucial for any welder's health and performance.
Why does my welding helmet keep flashing?
If your welding helmet keeps flashing, it may be due to a faulty auto-darkening filter, low battery, or interference from bright lights. Ensure the helmet is properly calibrated and check for any damage. If issues persist, consider replacing the helmet or filter.
What is the difference between a passive and an auto-darkening welding helmet?
Passive helmets use a fixed-shade glass filter (usually shade 10) that is permanently dark; auto-darkening helmets have an LCD filter that sits in a light state (shade 3-4) for set-up or grinding and switches to your chosen welding shade (DIN 9-13) in milliseconds when the arc starts, giving better visibility, comfort, and productivity.
What lens shade should I use for MIG or TIG welding?
Follow HSE tables: shade 9 for low-amp TIG (less than 100 A), shade 10-12 for most MIG or TIG (100-300 A), and shade 13 for very high-current MIG, FCAW, or SAW; always choose the darkest shade that still lets you see the weld pool.
Are all welding helmets suitable for low-amperage TIG welding?
Ensure the auto-darkening filter is rated to detect arcs below about 5 A and is certified to BS EN ISO 16321-2.
Can I use the same helmet for grinding and welding?
If your helmet has a dedicated grind mode or a flip-up clear visor otherwise, wear separate eye or face protection that meets BS EN 166 for grinding.
How often should I replace the lens in my welding helmet?
Change the outer cover lens whenever it is scratched or pitted enough to affect vision; replace the inner cover if spatter or dust gets behind it, and renew the ADF cartridge if it fails to darken, shows blotches, or has reached its manufacturer-stated service life (typically 5-7 years).
Are hard-hat adapters available for welding helmets?
Most major brands offer CE or UKCA marked adapters or integrated industrial safety helmets that accept their welding shells while meeting BS EN 397 head protection requirements.
What standards should welding helmets comply with in the UK?
Look for CE or UKCA marking to BS EN ISO 16321-2:2021 for the filter, plus BS EN 175 for the shell; older auto-darkening helmets may still reference BS EN 379.
Do welding helmets protect against UV and infrared radiation even when inactive?
Both passive filters and auto-darkening cartridges block greater than 99.9 percent of UV or IR all the time, so your eyes are protected even if the electronics fail.
