OVERVIEW

Restore Comfort to Your Viking Helmet

Is your welding helmet slipping? Is the adjustment knob stripped? Get back to welding comfortably with the Lincoln Electric KP4100-1 Ratchet Headgear. This is the classic, reliable suspension system that welders have trusted for years. Designed to fit the most popular Lincoln Viking™ helmets, this replacement kit breathes new life into your existing hood without the expense of buying a whole new helmet.

Customizable Fit for All-Day Wear
The key to a good weld is focus, and you can't focus if your helmet is digging into your head or falling off. The KP4100-1 utilizes a robust ratchet adjustment dial at the back. Simply push and turn to dial in the perfect tightness. The top strap features slide adjustments to set how high the helmet sits on your head, ensuring the viewing area is perfectly centered for your eyes. Whether you wear a welding cap or not, this headgear adjusts easily to fit.

Includes Comfort Sweatband
Welding is hot work. That's why this headgear comes ready to go with a soft, integrated sweatband. It provides a cushioned layer against your forehead and helps manage sweat, so you don't have to stop mid-bead to wipe your brow. It's the traditional style you know, offering the durability and stability Lincoln Electric is famous for. Don't struggle with broken gear—swap it out in seconds and get back to the arc.

Compatibility
This headgear is the standard replacement for Lincoln Electric Viking 1740, 1840, 2450, and 3350 Series helmets, as well as the Industrial Passive series.
