ArcOne S240-10 Singles 2x4 Auto-Darkening Filter Shade 10

Upgrade Your Old School Hood

If you are still nodding your head to drop your hood every time you strike an arc, it is time for an upgrade. The ArcOne S240-10 is the perfect drop-in replacement to turn your favorite passive "sugar scoop" or Pipeliner helmet into a modern auto-darkening rig. We know that many welders prefer the lightweight, compact feel of a classic 2x4 helmet, but missing out on auto-darkening tech can be a drag on your neck and your efficiency. This "Singles" cartridge gives you the best of both worlds: the helmet you love with the lens technology you need.

The S240-10 features a fixed Shade 10, which is the go-to shade for most general welding jobs. Whether you are burning rod or running MIG beads, this lens provides a clear, crisp view of the puddle. The clear state is a bright Shade 3, meaning you can keep your hood down while you chip slag, grind a tack, or reposition your work piece. No more flashing yourself because you forgot to nod, and no more sore neck at the end of the day. The optics are designed to be clear and consistent across the viewing area, reducing eye strain compared to older, lower-quality lenses.

One of the best features of this lens is that it is 100% solar powered. You never have to worry about buying batteries or finding out your lens is dead right when you need to weld. It charges off the arc itself. Just drop it into your retainer, put your clear cover lens in front, and you are ready to go. It fits almost any standard 2" x 4.25" opening, making it compatible with a huge range of helmets from Jackson, Fibre-Metal, and others. It is a simple, affordable way to step up your game without breaking the bank on a whole new hood.
