Your work. Your helmet.
AKETEK® VIEW
A lightweight auto-darkening welding helmet for MIG/MAG, MMA and TIG welding, plasma cutting and grinding. Swedish True Colour optics, a filter that is always on, headgear that adjusts at five points – and seven shell colours to choose from.
AKETEK® Lift-Up
Raise the welding visor and keep working behind a clear 170 × 85 mm grinding visor. The same True Colour filter and always-on electronics as VIEW, for workflows that alternate MIG/MAG, MMA or TIG welding with grinding and inspection.
AKETEK® AUDIO
A welding helmet with Open Platform headgear that leaves room for full-size earmuffs with a headband – passive, active noise-cancelling or with integrated music and communication. The same True Colour optics as VIEW, at 515 g.
AKETEK® VIEW AIR
The VIEW helmet paired with the AKETEK® AIR powered air-purifying respirator: TH3P filtration that removes up to 99.995 % of airborne particles, 190 or 210 l/min of steady airflow and 13–16 hours of battery life – with the same True Colour optics that are always on.
AKETEK® Lift-Up AIR
The Lift-Up helmet paired with the AKETEK® AIR powered air-purifying respirator. Weld behind the True Colour filter, lift the visor to grind and inspect – and breathe TH3P-filtered air the whole time, with 13–16 hours of battery life.
The inventor never stopped inventing.
In 1976 Åke Hörnell built the world’s first auto-darkening welding helmet – the invention that changed welding everywhere. Fifty years and three generations of liquid-crystal technology later, that experience is built into every Aketek helmet.
