BOLLÉ SAFETY WELDING HELMETS DESIGNED FOR WELDERS: HIGH PROTECTION FOR FACE AND EYES

We have developed a range of welding helmets to protect both professionals and individuals who perform welding. All of these helmets are certified to ANSI Z87.1 standards.

What are the risks associated with arc welding?

There are various risks associated with welding that can be completely avoided by wearing a welding helmet. First, there is a thermal risk, as the arc can generate heat up to 3,000 degrees – which can cause serious burns.
Then there are harmful infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) radiations. IR is invisible but can penetrate the eyes and skin. UV can cause corneal injuries, such as keratitis. These radiations are also uncomfortable due to the intense light – this discomfort can be prevented by wearing a welding helmet or hood.
Flying particles are also common during welding, posing a risk to the face and eyes. That’s why the welding helmet is the ideal protection.
Finally, there are gases and fumes that also require protection, as inhaling some substances can pose serious respiratory risks. To learn more, read our article on electric welding.

How can I protect myself as a welder?

You might be wondering how to best protect your eyes and face during welding.
To avoid any projections onto your face and eyes, the best protection is the welding helmet. It fully covers the face and neck for maximum protection. It is the ideal protection to avoid any risk.
We offer several models certified to ANSI Z87.1 standards, such as VOLT, FUSION+ and FLASH. You can explore our full welding product range. All of these welding helmets are equipped with an ergonomic memory foam headband for improved comfort.

Which welding helmet should I choose?

We offer welding helmets with various auto-darkening filter shade ranges. Variable shade means that the lens automatically adjusts to the brightness of the welding arc. The numbers listed on the helmet product pages refer to the level of darkening.

For variable shade 5-8/9-13, the filter offers two distinct ranges:

- Shade 5 to 8: for cutting or low-intensity welding tasks (flame, oxy-fuel cutting, brazing, etc.)
- Shade 9 to 13: for arc welding (MIG, TIG, MMA, etc.)

This is a versatile filter suitable for various welding techniques. It’s the most practical option for professional welders.

For variable shade 4/9-13, the filter offers:

- Shade 4 at rest (light mode), allowing you to see your surroundings when not welding.
- Adjustable shade from 9 to 13 in active mode (when the arc is detected).

This is more commonly found in standard welding helmets.
The choice of variable shade will depend on the type of welding (current intensity, technique used), the desired visual comfort, and the level of versatility needed if multiple tasks are performed.
