Optrel® Weldcap® 1008.000

The Optrel® Weldcap® combines the protection of an auto-darkening welding hood with the comfort of a flame retardant baseball cap. The result is a lightweight, variable shade 9 to 12 welding protection system that can be worn all day. Weldcap's revolutionary auto dark lens allows for a dramatically increased field of vision that is up to 270% greater than a standard 2 1/2 x 4 1/4 inch welding lens. The innovative nose cut out, along with the unique shape of the Weldcap ADF combine to provide the widest view of the work area of any other welding helmet in its class.

The Weldcap lens features a single, wide-angle sensor and can be operated in variable shade 9 to 12 welding mode or shade 3 grind mode. The auto-dark lens assembly comes with a two year warranty.

TIG Fabrication

December 13, 2019

Great item for light duty bench TIG welding / Fabrication. Takes some getting used to as your nose and eyes are right up against the face lens and thus you field of vision is quite broad. Lowest light level is 3.0 and the auto-darkening lens works very well.

ProsLight weight ; easy to wear and get used to ; perfect for TiG bench work ; comfortable ; has a "on-off" switch (lens shade adjustment - grind setting) to preserve battery life. Very well made overall.

ConsNo head gear so adjustments are limited ; its like wearing a base ball cap ; lightest setting of the lens is 3.0 . OK, but Oprtel crystal is 2.0 ! Uses batteries, not rechargeable, 2032 x 2 Photos below are shown in "grind mode" 3.0 to get some idea of its pre-darken shade. Note shade knob in grind mode ; this is also battery "off" selector ; to preserve bat. life. I also have 2.5 magnification lens mounted into place as wearing glasses with this hood I think would be difficult.

Very Comfortable And It Works Well

December 13, 2019

Yes, it looks rather goofy for welding, but it is super comfortable and it's from Optrel. Two out of three makes it a winner for me.

Awesome for automotive

I do collision. It's so light and compact it did not hurt my neck welding in quarters

Not for large headed people

July 10, 2018

I don't even have a large head and this was too small. No way would it stay on my head, it was like wearing your kids hat by accident. I did not weld with it as I was returning. No hassles as usual with Cyberweld. Repeat customer.

ConsChild sized

Optrel Weldcap is the best

December 23, 2017

The best welding mask I have ever owned. Lightweight and comfortable. Optics are crystal clear and in color, not just shades of green anymore. I wear glasses and the bridge cutout helps to get the optics closer to your eyes for the larger viewing area and does not interfere with glasses. I was skeptical at first but am extremely happy with this mask. I wanted the bumpcap version but Cyberweld does not carry, figure I can modify myself for that purpose.
