Auto-Darkening Helmet with Adjustable Shade

The Westward 6VKF5 is an auto-darkening welding helmet finished in black nylon. It offers a shade range of 4 to 13 and carries EN379 classification 1/1/1/2 for optical quality. The lens switches in 1/25,000 second and includes sensitivity plus delay adjustments.

Suits TIG work and grind-mode tasks

Excellent for TIG welding, the helmet also provides a grind mode for preparation work. A CR2330 lithium cell delivers up to 3,000 hours of battery life and the pack ships with batteries included. Buyers who need a wider view than the 23 cm shell provides should look at a different model.

1/25,000-second lens switching speed

The decisive specification is the 1/25,000 second darkening speed combined with the adjustable 4–13 shade range. This response time protects the eyes during high-amperage starts while the variable shade covers multiple processes. If your application demands a faster rating, this helmet will not meet it.

Questions about this item

Does the helmet come with batteries and a spare front cover lens, or do I need to order them separately?

The helmet includes one CR2330 lithium-ion battery and one protective front cover lens in the box.

How do I decide between the available shade settings for different welding processes?

The adjustable shade range runs from 4 through 13, so you can dial in a lighter setting for low-amperage TIG and a darker setting for higher-amperage MIG or stick work.

What does the 1/25,000-second lens speed mean for everyday use?

The filter darkens in 1/25,000 of a second, meeting the EN379 1/1/1/2 optical class for consistent protection across TIG, MIG and grinding tasks.
