Antra DP8 Auto-Shading Auto-Darkening Welding Helmet – Top Optical Class 1/1/1/1, Extended Shade Range 3/5-9/9-14, True-Color Clarity

Antra DP8 Auto-Shading Auto-Darkening Welding Helmet is built for welders who want top-level clarity and less manual adjusting. The auto-shading lens self-adapts to arc brightness to help maintain comfortable visibility as conditions change. With Optical Class 1/1/1/1 and an extended shade range, DP8 is designed for serious daily work across multiple processes.

Key Benefits

• Auto-shading (self-adaptive): adjusts lens darkness based on arc intensity, reducing manual shade changes
• Top Optical Class 1/1/1/1: clearer view with less distortion and better detail
• Extended shade range: supports a wider range of tasks from low to high intensity welding
• Digital controls: fine-tune settings like shade lock, delay, and sensitivity
• External grind button: quick switch between welding and grinding
• Large viewing area: improved puddle tracking and alignment

How Auto-Shading Helps

Auto-shading continuously monitors arc brightness and automatically adapts the shade level. This helps reduce interruptions and eye fatigue when you switch between different materials, amperage, or welding positions.

• Less time adjusting shade settings
• Helps avoid “too dark / too bright” shade choices
• More comfortable visibility during variable welds and tacking

Clarity for Precision Work

With Optical Class 1/1/1/1, DP8 is tuned for better clarity and contrast—especially useful for detailed MIG work and precision TIG where visibility matters most.

Who It’s For

• Pros who weld daily and want maximum clarity
• Fabrication, maintenance, and multi-process shops
• Welders who want self-adaptive auto-shading plus digital control
