CA-40GW Safety Helmet with flip-up welding & grinding visor

CA-40GW Safety Helmet with flip-up welding & grinding visor

The CA-40GW combines an AS/NZS 1801 industrial safety helmet with a flip-up auto-darkening welding visor and a separate grinding visor — the right choice for workers who move between welding, grinding, and general site work without wanting to swap between multiple helmets.

Why flip-up over dedicated welding helmet

• Continuous head protection — AS/NZS 1801 hard hat rating is maintained whether welding, grinding, or walking on site.
• Fast transitions — flip up the ADF to inspect work; flip down to resume welding.
• Dual visor — separate welding and grinding visors let you swap between processes without changing helmets.
• PAPR compatible — integrates with the CleanAir PAPR belt range for respiratory protection during welding fume exposure.

Where CA-40GW fits

• Structural steel fabrication — welding, grinding, and site work in the same day.
• Mechanical trades — vehicle repair, maintenance, and plant work with mixed welding and general work.
• Shipyards and offshore — where hard-hat protection is mandatory across all tasks.

Visor specifications

The welding visor is an auto-darkening filter with variable shade and grind mode. The grinding visor is clear polycarbonate certified for mechanical impact. Check the individual product page for exact shade range, ADF response time, and visor replacement part numbers.
