Features & Specifications

Upgrade to the new feature-packed G5-01 with True-View and Variable Colour

Existing Adflo customers can now experience the new feature-packed Speedglas G5-01VC heavy-duty welding helmet. With True-View, Variable Colour Technology, Climate Control and more, the G5-01VC simply connects to your existing Adflo PAPR unit! The kit comes complete with headtop and lens.

Powerful Welding Fume Protection

Comfortable face seal follows the contours of both the face and helmet to create a positive pressure seal from pollutants. An exclusive airflow pattern within the helmet ensures filtered air is evenly distributed throughout the entire breathing zone of the welder.

Designed Specifically for Heavy-Duty Welding

Built for welding at high amperages, the Speedglas G5-01 VC welding lens features an extra-dark shade 14 in the dark state.

Exclusive Variable Colour Technology

Choose how you see your welds, with Speedglas Variable Colour Technology. Easily switch between natural, cool and warm tones for your dark state. You determine which colour tone provides the best contrast for your welds, and the most comfort for your eyes.

Extra-Large Speedglas Welding Lens with True-View

View your welds through a massive 73 x 109mm viewing area, with even greater clarity. 3M Speedglas True-View has literally changed the way welders see, making what you see through the lens appear lighter, more detailed and colourful.

Huge Clear & Curved Grinding Visor with Removable Welding Shield

A smooth flip-up function reveals an extra-large 170x104 mm clear grinding visor – 16% larger than the Speedglas 9100 FX Air. For extended non-welding work, users can completely remove the welding visor – reducing the helmet weight by over 35%.

Don’t Go with the Flow

A new innovative helmet duct system lets you take control over the direction of your airflow, for increased comfort in hot and humid conditions. All adjustments can be made while wearing the helmet, maintaining your eye, face and respiratory protection.

Customise your Coverage

A range of configurable extra protection options allow you to adapt your G5-01 to suit your specific welding environment and needs. Extended neck and head covers are available in leather or fabric, with a high-visibility option also available.

Bluetooth Connectivity and Memory Modes

With Bluetooth technology, the Speedglas G5-01VC lens gives you the flexibility to change lens settings, review welding statistics and access user manuals – all from the palm of your hand. For simple switching, easily program up to four memory modes.

Light Up your Weld

The G5-01 is available with a new, optional task light that can be fitted to the helmet. This gives you hours of powerful lighting, for welding in spaces with poor lighting.

Increased Coverage with a Slim Design

A slim, streamlined profile gives you more coverage for your ears, head and neck.

Unrivalled Switching and Arc Detection with Auto-On

Photo-sensors that can detect an arc down to an industry-leading 1 amp. Auto-On technology means your welding helmet is instantly ready to weld; programmed to your last used welding setting.

Highest Optical Rating

Speedglas heavy-duty welding helmet G5-01 gives the welder the highest possible optical classification (1/1/1) and is compliant with AS/NZS1338.1.

All Welding Applications with Multiple Modes

With shades 3, 5, 8, 9-14 and multiple mode settings, the G5-01VC allows you to weld, cut, grind and tack, indoors and outdoors even with a completely hidden arc.

Complies with all relevant Australian & New Zealand Standards

Compliant with Australian & New Zealand Standard AS/NZS1337.1 (high impact face protection), AS/NZS1338.1 (eye protection) and AS/NZS1716 (respiratory protection).

Comfort & Ergonomics

The new G5-01 ergonomic headband design is optimised for comfort. The harness evenly distributes weight, allows for complete customisation and avoids sensitive areas, helping to minimise fatigue. An extra-large back pad offers enhanced comfort.

Mag Lens Holder

Built-in magnification lens holder allows for easy attachment and allows you to optimise the position for better vision.

Speedglas Welding PPE is a long term investment

The Speedglas G5-01 welding lens has a custom designed multi-function programmed logic chip that minimises the number of discrete surface-mounted components; leading to improved reliability and longevity.

Industry Leading Warranty Protection

The Speedglas G5-01 features a revolving three year warranty. Experience a problem with the welding mask in the first three years and your 3 year warranty protection starts again. Speedglas helmets are built to last.
