KP3775-1 - Lincoln Viking 2x4C Auto-Darkening Lens Cartridge Shade 8-13

See the Arc Like Never Before

Upgrade your favorite "old school" hood with modern technology using the Lincoln Electric VIKING™ 2x4C® Auto-Darkening Lens. If you love the lightweight feel of a pipeliner or pancake helmet but hate the constant head-nodding or the strain of a passive lens, this is the solution you have been waiting for. The KP3775-1 fits directly into most standard 2" x 4.25" retainer springs, instantly transforming your helmet into a high-tech welding tool. At the heart of this lens is Lincoln's famous 4C® Lens Technology. Say goodbye to the blurry, green-tinted world of older auto-darkening filters. With 4C, you see the true colors of the weld puddle and the heat-affected zone, giving you unprecedented control over your bead.

Comfort and Clarity All Day Long

Welding is tough on the eyes, but the VIKING 2x4C is designed to keep you comfortable from the first spark to the last. The crystal-clear Shade 3 light state allows you to inspect your fit-up, grab your grinder, or move around the shop without ever lifting your hood. When the arc strikes, the lens switches instantly to your selected shade (adjustable from 8 to 13). This variable shade range means you can switch from running a hot 7018 root pass to delicate TIG work without changing lenses. The recessed controls are easy to adjust but stay out of the way, so you don't accidentally change settings while working in tight spots.

Built for the Real World

We know you put your gear through hell. That's why Lincoln built this lens with a high-temperature housing that resists melting and warping, even when you are buried deep in a joint. It is powered by a combination of solar energy and replaceable batteries, so you never have to worry about a dead lens killing your productivity. Whether you are on the pipeline, in the fab shop, or in your garage, the Lincoln VIKING 2x4C Series lens gives you the clarity you need to lay down perfect welds every time.
