Platinum WC-05318 Promax 500 Weldwolf Shade 5-13 Auto Darkening Welding Helmet

Platinum WC-05318 Promax 500 Weldwolf Auto Darkening Welding Helmet, Variable Shade 5-13

The Platinum WC-05318 Promax 500 Weldwolf Auto Darkening Welding Helmet is designed for welders who need reliable eye protection and clear visibility in demanding MIG, TIG, and stick welding work. This auto darkening helmet uses a dual shade range of 5–8 / 9–13 so you can set the lens for light-duty welding, high-amperage work, or cutting and grinding without switching helmets. A large 13.2 sq. in. viewing area (98 x 87 mm) gives an open, comfortable field of vision, helping you see the joint, puddle, and surroundings with less head movement and eye strain.

Four arc sensors provide fast, consistent switching, even in out-of-position welding where one sensor might be blocked. Sensitivity and delay controls let you tune how quickly the filter reacts and how long it stays dark after the arc stops, so you can match the helmet to your process and amperage. The Promax 500 Weldwolf helmet is lightweight, high-impact tested, and certified to CSA Z94.3 and AS1337.1, giving confidence on industrial sites, in fabrication shops, or in training bays. With a replaceable battery, magnification lens holder, and hinge-and-lock lens retainer, it is built for long-term use and straightforward maintenance.

Markets

• Industrial Welding Used for heavy-duty production welding where reliable auto darkening and impact protection are required.
• Metal Fabrication Suits fit-up, tacking, and detailed fabrication where a wide viewing area aids accuracy.
• Automotive Repair and Custom Work Ideal for chassis repair, exhaust work, and body modifications that need frequent welding and grinding.
• Construction and Jobsite Welding Durable enough for structural welding and field repairs with varying light conditions.
• Manufacturing and Production Lines Keeps operators protected during repetitive weld cycles throughout a shift.
• Maintenance and Repair Facilities Handy for plant, mill, and shop maintenance teams handling different welding processes.
• Trade Schools and Training Centres Provides students with a clear, adjustable welding helmet that meets current safety standards.

For these users, the Platinum Promax 500 Weldwolf helmet delivers a mix of safety, clear vision, and flexibility. Industrial welders and fabricators benefit from the large viewing area and variable shade range when switching between short tacks and long welds on thicker material. Automotive and construction crews move between welding and grinding often, so the dedicated grind mode switch and impact-tested lens help streamline that work while still meeting safety requirements. In manufacturing plants and maintenance shops, the four-sensor auto darkening filter reacts quickly and consistently across different processes, keeping operators focused on the weld instead of fussing with their helmet. Trade schools gain a helmet that can be adjusted to different students and teaching setups while still matching the standards they will see on real job sites.

Why Welders Chooose the Platinum Promax 500 Weldwolf Shade 5-13 Auto Darkening Welding Helmet

Welders choose the Platinum Promax 500 Weldwolf auto darkening welding helmet because it combines a wide viewing area with a variable shade range that works across MIG welding, TIG welding, and stick welding. The dual range 5–8 / 9–13 lets them move from low-amp TIG work to heavier structural welds without changing helmets, and the grind mode switch means they can keep the same helmet on when they grab a grinder. This saves time and keeps their face and eyes protected throughout the job.

Crews also value the four-sensor design and CSA-approved impact rating, which give consistent lens performance in tight joints and on busy industrial sites. With a replaceable battery, mag lens holder, and simple hinge-and-lock lens retainer, the Promax 500 is practical for daily use in fabrication shops, automotive bays, and school labs. For welders who want a dependable auto darkening helmet with clear optics and straightforward controls, the Weldwolf edition delivers what they need without extra hassle.
