Massive upgrade on my previous Promax 500, great visibility, I can actually wear glasses underneath (which I have had issues with other branded helmets), and now with PAPR system and flip up for grinding face shield I am actually not skipping the correct PPE. No more blowing black stuff out of my nose for days after lots of welding and grinding. It's made the whole process safer and actually easier now. Show details
Great product. Very comftable to wear. Great price and very safe
Fantastic quality. Can weld all day and feel safe doing so. The extra battery is super handy
Great for use Straps can be designed differently, as they keep coming loose, but overall Comfortable and easy to use battery lasts Show details
The helmet fit well and was comfortable to wear for and extended period of time. The respirator was excellent and kept me with fresh air for the whole duration of time I was using it, very impressed with the helmet so far. Show details
Affordable with the benefits of more expensive helmets. Great visual awareness while using the grinding lense compared to other helmwts Show details
I loved using it, it feels good im super secured from fumes and welding shots, strong batteries for fan and the lence was incredible. Show details
Creates a safe and cool working environment when welding for long periods inside. Easy to use - I wouldn't consider going back to a standard helmet ever again Show details
Great helmet just a little hard to operate the screen Show details
I have been welding on and off for years and until now have never had a PAPR helmet. I must admit it takes a bit of getting used to wearing it but once it is on you hardly know it is there. The clarity in the helmet is fantastic and the airflow is just right. I can't wait for summer to get here to see how much difference it will make Show details
Awesome bit of equipment. I recently got told I had a lot of heavy metals in my lungs from years of welding mainly galvanised steel, so I researched and found what I thought was a good mask giving me the convenience of being able to lift the welding shield and still have full use of the respirator to be able to grind etc. Very happy with my purchase.

Generally good bit of gear, the Velcro in the back of the hood is quite annoying and I ended up cutting it out. it’s a bit difficult to use for gas cutting as the lens can’t figure out to darken or not sometimes. but overall a good product. Show reply
I previously had a Jackson helmet and scrubber and utilising my new purchase of the WELDCLASS setup I found the helmet much lighter, the power pack lighter, more comfortable and with a good run time. The helmet is robust enough for most operating conditions and holds onto my head securely. Show details

Great helmet, comfortable easy to set up and use. Reccomend highly
Love the auto on and off screen function and not having to remove my helmet each time I inspect my welds. Also no more headaches with the filtered air being blown in. Love it. Show details
Very happy with this helmet, the only negative is the straps are too short for a larger man. Have fixed this with a set of braces. to hold up the air pump. Show details
This helmet is brilliant! I use it for tig welding and any job that has any gal or nasty fumes of any sort. The pros Comfort Display Adjustment Quality Air filter quality and fan speed and noise Now the cons... Battery could do with a USB type C Charg cable. The helmet could do with more durable bolts and straps. Note, being my first PAPR helmet I couldn't be happier with the pice and the support from Weldclass. Recommend this product Show details
Love the product wellmade and very nice fit perfect for my job at the mines working in the draglines. Show details
Very good welding helmet it is vary helpful for my job and day by day Show details
I’ve welded for years using a respirator under my helmet, but I now enjoy using my weldclass promax helmet with the paper respirator. Should have gotten one sooner. Show details
Excellent service from trade tools they answered all of my questions. Shield is comfortable and battery last much longer then the stated 10 hours on low setting . Would be nice if you had a link directly to the r850 welding shield instead of the 650 which is not the same as it doesn't have the flip top . Show details
This is a great helmet for price. I Would recommend this to others. Show details
What a great Welding Helmet – I have been after a Welding Helmet with PAPR Respirator for a while but was put off by the cost. After seeing the price of the Weldclass PROMAX 850, I thought why not. The first time I welded with it I was gob smacked at the clarity, the field of view and the helmet not fogging as it was a hot humid day. The equipment is easy to setup and the settings as suggested in their documentation were spot on. A great piece of kit at the right price. Show details
