OVERVIEW

Stay Safe and Weld Longer with the Lincoln VIKING 3250D FGS PAPR

Take your welding safety and productivity to the next level with the Lincoln VIKING 3250D FGS PAPR Welding Helmet System. This complete Powered Air Purifying Respirator kit, model K4550-3, comes equipped with an extended-life battery that powers the unit for up to 16 hours, ensuring you stay protected through the longest workdays. Designed for heavy fabrication, structural welding, and industrial environments, this system keeps the air you breathe clean while providing a crystal-clear view of your work.

Crystal Clear Views with 4C Technology

Stop squinting through green lenses. The VIKING 3250D FGS features Lincoln's proprietary 4C Lens Technology, delivering a view that is true to color and easy on the eyes. With a massive 12.5 square inch auto-darkening viewing area and a perfect 1/1/1/1 optical clarity rating, you will see every detail of the arc, puddle, and base material. The helmet also features Shade 5 side windows, giving you 161 degrees of vision so you are always aware of your surroundings.

Built for the Grind

Efficiency is key in any shop. The 3250D FGS helmet features an integrated clear grind shield that sits beneath the flip-up auto-darkening lens. This allows you to transition instantly from welding to grinding without taking off your respiratory protection. The external grind button makes switching modes fast and gloved-hand friendly. Combined with the intelligent blower unit that alerts you to low battery or filter issues, this system lets you focus on the job, not your gear.

Complete Ready-to-Weld System

The K4550-3 kit includes everything you need to get started immediately. It comes with the helmet, the intelligent blower unit, the extended lithium-ion battery, a smart charger, a padded belt, shoulder straps, a flexible hose with an FR cover, and a durable industrial duffle bag for storage. With HEPA filtration protecting you from harmful particulates like hexavalent chromium, this is an investment in your long-term health and career longevity.
