Hamlin WeldingI remember buying that 3m Speedglas 9100xxi in 2020 and thinking it was expensive for $370! Personally, I think they are the best welding hoods for shop and light on-site use. I wouldn't take one of these on a pipeline. It's like anything - bring the right tool for the job. These hoods are incredible for their color and clarity but at almost $800 😳😳 Some people won't get to experience how great they are! I bought an Optrel one time and returned it so fast because of the cheap headgear... The type that just grabs a wad of your hair everytime you put it on. Hard no! #welding #weldinghood #tigwelding #migwelding #3m
