This true color auto darkening lens fit perfectly in my Jackson and Fibre-Metal hoods. The great thing about it is you can have modern technology with your vintage hood.

Customer Reviews
great lens for stick i can see very well super clean look will be buying more lens
All the lenses I purchased and the helmet are great. I got the 3 lenses and all of them are amazingly clear. Definitely one of the best I've uses. Also bought the throne 2.0 helmet and it is really well made. Not cheaply made, have put it through a lot since I've got it and still working perfectly. I have recommended this product to friends and colleagues
The ridge products is one of the best welding products I’ve used in my time of welding. I really like the hoods. The lens tho, lemme tell you something, I’ve never used a much more clearer lens in welding. I really love the auto darkening lens but the gold lens are my favorite.
I do a lot of sanitary tig and stick work and I had purchased the duke, the prince and the heir all 2.0. I love the clarity and the quality so far. Everyone in the customer service is also very good to deal with. Had some questions and they were great. 10/10 definitely reccomend the 2.0's if you do any tig work.
I must say I was skeptical at first with the deal they were giving but in the end result I am very happy with everything that I have I that is now my go-to lens so don't be afraid to reach out to them excellent customer service and go ahead and save your money and buy these lenses
