Welding Helmet Market Segment by Application, Types and Development trend to 2022

Global welding helmet market is segmented on the basis of product type, application, end user, and geography. Welding helmet is a type of headgear used when performing welding to protect you from harmful radiations emitted during the process. This helmet is a type of personal protective equipment (PPE) used to protect the head, face, eyes and neck from flame & flashes, ultraviolet light, infrared light, sparks, and heat generated during the welding process.

Welding helmets are generally used with arc welding processes such as gas tungsten arc welding, shielded metal arc welding, and gas metal arc welding. This helmet is also essential to prevent arc eye, a painful condition where the cornea is inflamed. Welding helmet also prevents retina burns, which can lead to a loss of vision.


Generally welding helmets contain a window covered with a filter known as lens shade, through which the welder can see the work. In these helmets, the window is made up of tinted plastic, tinted glass or a variable-density filter made from a pair of polarized lenses. In the market, there are two categories of welding helmets available such as passive helmets and auto-darkening helmets. In passive helmets dark lens is used that does not change or adjust, and welding operator nods the helmet down as they start the arc when using this type of helmet.



Auto-darkening helmets are easy to use and convenient, particularly for operators who raise and lower their helmet commonly, while sensors will automatically darken the lens once they detect the arc. Based on product type, the welding helmet market is classified as auto-darkening welding helmets, non auto-darkening welding helmets, passive welding helmet, and so on.

Based on application, the welding helmet market is classified as tungsten inert gas (TIG) application, metal inert gas (MIG) application, manual metal arc (MMA) application, plasma welding (PAW) application, and plasma cutting (PAC) application and so on. Based on end user, the welding helmet market is classified as agriculture, home-use, automotive, heavy equipment, aerospace, shipbuilding, energy & chemical, electronics, medical, precision instruments, general industrial, infrastructure construction and so on. Based on geography, the welding helmet market is classified as Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, Latin America and Middle East & Africa.
