Westward 44R235 Auto-Darkening Welding Helmet
The Westward 44R235 is an auto-darkening welding helmet designed for eye and face protection during welding tasks. It features a nylon shell in a black, red and white graphic finish and meets EN379 classification 1/1/1/2 for optical quality.
Welders needing variable shade and grind mode
This helmet suits welders who require variable shades from 5-8 and 8-13 plus a dedicated grind mode for non-welding prep work. The digital control display and five-point adjustable headgear with removable sweatband support comfort during extended use. Buyers who need a passive filter or a fixed-shade lens should look at other models.
Shade range 5-8/8-13 with digital controls
The decisive specification is the dual shade range of 5-8 and 8-13 controlled through a digital display. This allows precise adjustment for different welding processes and amperages. A low-battery alarm and test button confirm the lens is darkening properly before work begins.
