Fibre-Metal by Honeywell Tigerhood Classic Thermoplastic Welding Helmet with Speedy Loop Hard Hat Mount, Gray (5906GY) Medium

So I've been welding over 10 years now. I own the Lincoln 3350. Miller Digital Elite. Jackson Safety and so on. I've recently started using fixed shades and different hoods since I'm planning to make some employment changes. This is officially my go to. I know I just got it(the hard hat combo to noted as well) but I used it today doing what I do. I dont plan on going back to previous hoods. This lid is strong. Durable. Simple to be used and operate. The lens that came with it is an awesome plus. I expected good old green. More towards crimson. I could practically see the arcs dancing on the tungsten. The fitting is solid. The hard hat part at least since i have the mount but not the headgear(yet) Its a bit heavy on a 12 hour day but I wouldnt trade that out. To me thats strength and conditioning on my end. Comfort is mild but not a headache. Then again. I've only used 2 hoods that were really comfortable, so I may be spoiled. But. To anyone who wants a well rounded helmet. This is it. *To all new welders reading this* This is a great starting hood as well. It may take practice getting used to but dont forget your lens flips up and down. You're not always dark 😆 But i plan on buying some auto lens in all this. But this is it. Another thing for new welders to consider is...sure. it doesn't have a massive auto lens like a miller or Lincoln, but I can tell you from experience that its not always worth it. I've worked in some tight and complex places. Even welded and used a mirror to do do. Due to some of my angles, my auto lens arc sensors didnt always sense the arc. So id be blinded part of my weld and running off of small squint visions and instant picture memory of were the metal is being fused. The shape and size of these lens make it much easier to detect an arc if you choose to run with an auto on this hood. I hope you guys choose this hood. Good. Dependable. Sturdy. Cant beat it.

My go to hood. Durable, basic. You can get optional auto dark lense for this if you look around. Been using this hood for 18 years. It has never let me down. There are other hoods out there but this one has never let me down. You can also find parts for these at reasonable prices. Would I buy again? Yep.

Good welding hood, for a reasonable price. Exactly what I needed for work.

Muy buena calidad

This is a nice hood. However on inspection,I noticed its now made in Mexico. I would buy the Jackson HSL-2 if I had to do it again. The Jackson is still made in the USA for the same price.

The best welding hood for the jobsite. I hope one day Fibre-Metal will make them with the same material used in the "pipeliner” style

Works great!

Bueno

Still using it daily for 2 years.

Todo muy bien llegó en buen estado era lo k esperaba perfecto 💯

Está más que perfecta, materiales de muy buena calidad, demasiado cómoda y ligera

Simplistic and great price comparing to others. It does what it does. I have a $500 Lincoln Viking, but no good for out doors. Big screen, too much reflection. This will be much better and clear.

This is made from good plastic and very durable,I put the aluminum adjustment screws on it and that helps a lot
