Westward 44R236 Auto-Darkening Helmet
The Westward 44R236 is an auto-darkening welding helmet with digital controls and a lithium-ion battery rated for 2000 hours of life. It offers variable shade settings from 5-8 and 8-13, a grind mode, and a low battery alarm. The nylon shell measures 26 cm wide and features a blue-white graphic design.
Who This Suits And Who It Does Not
This helmet suits welders who need variable shade adjustment and a digital display for precise control. The grind mode supports preparation work without removing the headgear. It is not for buyers who require a fixed-shade passive lens or a helmet without battery-dependent electronics.
EN379 1/1/1/2 Optical Classification
The auto-darkening filter carries an EN379 classification of 1/1/1/2, indicating high optical clarity and consistent shading performance. This rating confirms the lens quality for professional welding applications where visual accuracy is critical. The CR2450 battery powers the unit and includes a test button to verify proper darkening function.
