AUTO-DARKENING FILTERS  
Introduction to  
Auto-Darkening  
Welding Filters (ADF’s)  
Independent arc-detectors instantly sense the  
welding arc, immediately triggering the  
Speedglas filter to change from the light state  
to the dark state.  
Safety Products That Help Increase  
Your Performance  
Now welders can see their work, at comfortable  
light levels, with constant eye and face protection.  
Speedglas filters turn dark the moment an arc is  
struck and transparent again when welding  
stops–all the time with full UV/IR protection.  
Auto-darkening eliminates the neck-strain of  
“helmet nodding” while helping increase the  
accuracy of electrode placement.  
This, in turn, reduces the need for grinding and  
rework. In addition, welders can get into tight,  
cramped spaces with full protection and have a  
clear view, making extremely awkward welds a  
lot easier.

FILTERS AND HELMETS  
A Welding Helmet  
that Breathes!  
The revolutionary 3MSpeedglasHelmet 9000  
features patented aerodynamic exhaust vents that  
help to remove exhaled air.  
Welders experience lower humidity, less heat, and  
reduced “stuffiness.” The welders natural  
breathing action directs the exhaust airflow; no  
moving parts are involved. Fresh, incoming air is  
not drawn through the special vents; instead, it  
chooses the path of least resistance—the area  
around the welders neck, which is typically further  
away from the smoke plume.  
Exhaled air is directed through the four aerodynamic  
vents. It then exhausts through two thin openings  
created between the double-shell construction of the  
heat-reflecting silver front panel and the black helmet.

FILTERS AND HELMETS  
Peripheral Vision  
for Welders  
3M SideWindows Helmets Improve  
Visibility, Safety and Comfort  
3MSpeedglasSideWindows Helmets allow for  
peripheral vision. The two shade 5 side filters  
increase the peripheral viewing area by over 100%.  
SideWindows filters allow welders to see  
potentially-hazardous peripheral objects, such as  
protruding beams, vehicles, and other welders,  
with the helmet down.  
SideWindows also permit welders to easily move  
around their work area with constant protection  
from UV/IR radiation.  
The two side filters are designed solely for  
peripheral vision; the welder continues to view his  
own arc through the center (auto-darkening) filter.

9002V . . . the most versatile auto-darkening filter  
ever! Choose from 61 control combinations to  
achieve the most efficiency and comfort, no matter  
what you are welding.  
Greater sensitivity! The 9002's newly-developed  
detectors increase sensitivity to provide reliable  
switching for a wide range of welding methods, even  
extremely stable arcs like those from TIG inverters at  
low amp settings.  
Greater comfort! The 9002 introduces a new Delay  
function that lets you decide how quickly the filter  
changes from dark-to-light.  
Adjust with gloves on! The 9002's new membrane-  
covered control buttons let you change settings or  
turn on/off with your gloves on. The buttons are  
faster than analog knobs, and the membrane seals  
the filter from dirt.

AUTO-DARKENING FILTERS  
Ideal for Weld  
Preparation/Grinding:  
FlexView  
3M Speedglas FlexView System  
The new FlexView has a big, 4.75" x 3.6" (120mm  
x 90 mm) clear polycarbonate faceshield thats  
ideal for precision weld preparation under a variety  
of light conditions.  
The user simply lifts up the spring-mounted filter  
assembly for weld prep. The spring holds the auto-  
darkening filter securely on top of the helmet,  
giving the welder a big, clear view behind the  
FlexView faceshield.  
The faceshield allows for precision grinding and  
cleaning, the careful alignment of electrodes and  
the inspection of newly-completed welds…all with  
constant eye and face protection, even in the  
darkest workshop.  
The faceshield meets the ANSI Z87.1-2003  
industrial eye and face protection standard, which  
does not recommend “…filter or tinted filters that  
restrict light transmittance…” when chipping or  
grinding (American National Standard Institute  
Z87.1 Selection Chart, Impact Protectors).*  
*Impact resistant, primary eye protection, spectacles or  
goggles that meet current ANSI specifications, must be  
worn at all times when using any welding helmet.

AUTO-DARKENING FILTERS  
A Balanced Hard Hat  
Designed for Welders:  
ProTop  
3M Speedglas ProTop System  
The new ProTop combination hard hat, welding  
helmet, and auto-darkening filter system is  
especially designed for welders working in areas  
with overhead hazards.  
The key to the Speedglas ProTop system is the  
exclusive pivot mechanism that connects the  
welding helmet to the hard hat. Traditional welding  
hard hats create a very high center-of-gravity when  
the welding helmet is raised; as a result, the user  
feels off-balance, and the leveraged weight may put  
additional strain on neck muscles. On the other  
hand, the ProTop pivot mechanism has two sets of  
axes: one to lift the welding helmet away from the  
welders face, and another axis to “nest” the  
welding helmet down low over the hard hat, in a  
balanced, secure position.  
In addition to having a much more comfortable  
(lower) center-of-gravity, the nested welding helmet  
is much less likely to bump into obstacles as the  
welder moves around the work area.

We’ve reinvented the powered air-purifying respirator  
(PAPR) for welders. The result is 3MSpeedglaswith  
AdfloSystem: a lightweight, compact, all-in-one  
system. Its exclusive “stackable” configuration means  
that the Adflo cartridge can be “stacked” onto the high  
efficiency (HE) particle filter for additional protection  
against organic, sulfur dioxide, chlorine, and hydrogen  
chloride vapors.  
In effect, its two systems in one, allowing increased user  
flexibility to adapt to changing welding applications. And  
you can selectively replace either the particle filter or the  
Adflo OV/SD/CL/HC cartridge as needed: you don’t have  
to change both filters at the same time!  
The Adflo system has no external batteries, no battery  
cables, and no sharp corners. Its slim profile is designed  
to go into tight spaces. And its designed to be  
ergonomically compatible for welders.

3M Speedglas FlexView with Adflo  
System  
The new FlexView system combines full eye and  
face protection (for both welding and low light  
weld preparation) with a slim, lightweight, powered  
air purifying respirator. For chipping, grinding, or  
preparation, the user simply lifts up the spring-  
mounted Speedglas filter assembly. The spring  
holds the auto-darkening filter securely on top of  
the helmet, giving the welder a big clear view  
through the clear polycarbonate faceshield.  
The faceshield allows for precision grinding and  
cleaning, the careful alignment of electrodes and  
the inspection of newly-completed welds…all with  
constant eye and face protection, even in dark  
conditions.  
The faceshield meets the ANSI Z87.1-2003  
industrial eye and face protection standard, which  
does not recommend “…filter or tinted filters that  
restrict light transmittance…” when chipping or  
grinding (American National Standard Z87.1-2003).*  
*Important Note: Impact resistant, primary eye  
protection, spectacles or goggles that meet current ANSI  
specifications, must be worn at all times when using any  
welding helmet.

ClearVisor meets the high  
impact test requirements of  
ANSI Z87.1-2003.  
The system can be used in  
a variety of industrial  
settings, including  
woodworking, metal  
grinding, injection  
molding, petrochemical,  
pharmaceutical, pulp and  
paper processing, sanding  
and refinishing, foundries,  
grain and flour processing,  
and other dusty  
environments.

the temperature of the air entering the headpiece  
45°, making it ideal for very hot or strenuous  
jobs.  
NOTE: Final  
determination of respirator  
applicability and filter  
selection must be made by  
an on-site safety specialist

TEAM TORCH  
Team Torch  
Exclusive Welder  
for NHRA Events  
Since 1987, Paul Le Sage, aka Team Torch, has been  
the exclusive welder for all National Hot Rod  
Association (NHRA) events. Currently equipped with  
a heavily-modified, low-riding Chevy S-10 Xtreme  
truck and a 9000kVA generator/welder, Torch can  
quickly buzz in and out of crowded pit areas.  
“I’m doing some very extreme repairs on 300 mph  
race cars in the course of my day at a NHRA  
National event,” says Le Sage. “With a 75-minute  
turnaround between making  
another race down the drag  
strip, time is not on my side.  
The 3MSpeedglasAuto-  
Darkening Helmet is a must in  
my world.”
