The Optrel Weldcap Bump is a lightweight auto-darkening welding cap that combines the comfort and flexibility of a welding cap with the added protection of an integrated EN 812/A1-certified bump cap.
Unlike traditional welding helmets that only protect part of the head, the Weldcap Bump provides additional crown protection against minor impacts while maintaining a low-profile, lightweight design. It offers the mobility of a welding cap with a level of head protection closer to a conventional helmet.
The removable flame-retardant textile section is washable and designed for long-term comfort in fabrication shops, maintenance facilities, construction sites, and confined-space welding applications.
Key Features
Integrated Bump Cap Protection
The defining feature of the Weldcap Bump is the built-in bump cap that helps protect the top of the head from minor impacts and accidental strikes while working around structures, equipment, and tight spaces.
Benefits
- Added crown protection
- Improved stability compared to a standard welding cap
- Greater feeling of security during overhead work
- Maintains lightweight comfort
Oversized Field of Vision
The ergonomic nose-cutout design allows the lens to sit closer to the eyes, providing a significantly larger viewing area than traditional welding lenses.
Visibility Advantages
- Up to 270% greater field of vision than standard welding lenses
- Improved peripheral awareness
- Better weld positioning accuracy
- Enhanced visibility in confined workspaces
Auto-Darkening Lens
The integrated welding filter automatically darkens when an arc is detected.
Lens Specifications
- Light State: Shade 3
- Welding Shade Range: Shade 9–12
- Wide-angle arc detection sensor
- Automatic operation
- Continuous UV and IR protection
Grinding Mode
Built-in grinding mode allows users to switch from welding to grinding without changing headgear.
Grinding Benefits
- Clear shade 3 viewing state
- Faster workflow transitions
- Improved visibility during preparation work
- Ideal for fabrication and finishing operations
Flame-Resistant Textile Construction
The textile components are manufactured from flame-retardant materials and can be removed for cleaning and replacement.
Material Features
- Flame-retardant construction
- Washable textile components
- Comfortable all-day wear
- Easy maintenance
