OVERVIEW

Keep Your Air Clean and Your Helmet Comfortable

Is your Speedglas 9100 FX helmet letting in fumes or feeling a bit drafty? It might be time to replace your face seal. The 3M Speedglas Face Seal (26-0099-28) is the direct replacement for the soft barrier that hugs your face inside the 9100 FX and FX-Air helmets. This seal is the unsung hero of your PAPR system—it's what keeps the fresh, filtered air in and the nasty welding smoke out. When your face seal gets old, stretched out, or torn, you lose that positive pressure bubble that keeps you safe and cool.

Designed specifically for the 9100 FX's flip-up design, this seal moves with you. Whether you have the grinding visor up or the welding lens down, the seal maintains a comfortable fit against your face. It is made from durable, flame-retardant material that stands up to the heat and sparks of the job site. Replacing it is a breeze; it snaps right into the helmet shell, making your old helmet feel brand new again. A fresh seal not only improves safety but also hygiene, giving you a clean surface against your skin.

Don't compromise on your lung health or comfort. If you notice visible wear on your current seal or if you can smell fumes inside your hood, swap it out with this genuine 3M replacement. It’s a small investment that makes a huge difference in your daily welding experience, ensuring your expensive air-fed helmet works exactly like it's supposed to.

Why Replace Your Face Seal?

  • Hygiene: Replaces old, sweaty, or dirty material touching your face.
  • Comfort: Restores the snug, soft fit of a new helmet.
  • Performance: Helps prevent lens fogging by directing airflow correctly.

FAQ

This face seal (26-0099-28) is designed specifically for the 3M Speedglas 9100 FX and 9100 FX-Air welding helmets. It is not compatible with the standard 9100, 9100 MP, or older 9000 series helmets.

Replacement frequency depends on usage and hygiene. It should be replaced immediately if there are any tears, holes, or if the elastic is stretched out and no longer seals against the face. For hygiene purposes, regular replacement is recommended for daily users.

Yes, the 26-0099-28 face seal is manufactured from flame-retardant textiles to provide safety in welding environments where sparks and spatter are present.

While it can be wiped down with a damp cloth and mild soap, it is generally considered a consumable part. Soaking it or machine washing may degrade the flame-retardant properties and the structural integrity of the seal.

In a PAPR (Powered Air Purifying Respirator) system, the face seal creates a closed volume allowing the blower to build positive pressure. This positive pressure pushes air out through any gaps, preventing contaminated ambient air from entering the breathing zone. A damaged seal compromises this protection.

This part number typically refers to the fabric seal itself which attaches to the helmet's existing mounting points. Check your specific helmet manual for assembly details.

Yes, this is a genuine 3M Speedglas replacement part, ensuring perfect fit and compliance with the original safety certifications of the helmet.

No, the 9100 MP (Multi-Protection) helmet uses a different face seal design. This part is strictly for the 9100 FX series.
