3M Speedglas Filter 5 8-13

This auto-darkening filter is built for professional welders who use the 3M Speedglas 9100 series helmets. It provides eye protection across a shade range of 5 through 13 for various arc welding processes. The unit is designed as a direct replacement component for compatible helmet assemblies.

Adjustable Delay And Sensitivity Controls

The filter includes a delay function that lets the operator set the dark-to-light opening time after the arc stops. Arc detection sensitivity can be adjusted to suit different amperages and environments. An auto-on feature activates the lens automatically when the helmet is picked up, removing the need for a manual power switch.

Green Lens For 9100 Series Helmets

The green-tinted lens is engineered specifically for the 9100, 9100 QR and 9100-Air helmet models. It mounts securely into the existing helmet cavity without modification. Compatibility extends to multiple manufacturer and distributor part numbers, ensuring correct fitment for existing 9100 series equipment.

Questions about this item

When will the auto-darkening filter cartridge itself need to be replaced?

The filter is a replaceable cartridge for the 9100 series helmet; swap it when the liquid-crystal layer no longer darkens uniformly or the auto-on function fails to activate.

What is the highest fixed-shade setting the filter can reach during a long welding session?

The variable range tops out at shade 13, so sustained high-amperage work cannot go darker than that setting.

Does the filter generate any audible noise or noticeable heat when the helmet is worn all day?

The passive LCD cartridge has no fan or moving parts, so it runs silent and adds negligible heat inside the helmet shell.
