Product Description
Ridge Products’ Heir Single Shade Auto Darkening Blue Welding Lens is perfect for welders who want something that just works. If you’re tired of adjusting dials, fumbling with sensitivity settings, or dealing with batteries that drain too fast, this lens gets rid of the guesswork.
It’s fixed at shade 10, which is strong enough for most welding jobs but still gives you good visibility.
- Built to Handle Real Workdays: This blue welding lens is designed to hold up to constant use in the shop or on-site. It’s not fragile or fussy, and you won’t be replacing it every few weeks. If you’re welding a few hours a day or running a full shift, it’s made to keep up with you.
- No Buttons, No Fuss: One of the biggest benefits of The Heir Single is how easy it is to use. There’s nothing to set or change. Just install it in your hood, and you're good to go. It’s a great pick for newer welders or anyone who doesn’t want to mess around with settings every time they start a new project.
- Crisp View with Every Weld: The lens offers solid clarity so you can keep an eye on your weld puddle and stay in control of your work. A clean view means you can spot mistakes early, keep your lines tight, and reduce the need for rework. If you’ve been using older or cheaper lenses, you’ll notice the upgrade right away.
- Quick Switching Time for Eye Protection: With a 1/25,000-second reaction speed, you get instant eye protection. That fast response keeps you from getting flashed or straining your eyes during long sessions. It also means less downtime. No need to lift your hood between welds just to check your work.
- Fits Like It Should: This lens follows the standard 2” x 4.25” size, so it’s compatible with most welding helmets. If you’re already using a hood that takes this size, it should fit with no issue. Just slide it in, and you're set.
- Ideal for Repetitive Work: If you're doing the same type of welding all day, like running beads on pipe or MIG welding long seams, this lens is a good fit. You won’t need to keep changing your setup, and the fixed shade is great for maintaining consistency.
