Versaflo Adflo Parts FAQs

Straight answers to the questions people ask most when choosing and fitting head covers and parts for an air-fed welding helmet.

What is an extended head cover for?

It is a fabric cover that fits over the head and neck area of a welding helmet and the straps beneath. It helps keep sparks, spatter and dust off the head, hair, neck and the air supply parts of the helmet.

It is a wearable protective layer as well as a hygiene aid, since it keeps sweat and grime away from the helmet's headband.

How long does a head cover last?

It depends on how much you weld, the process, and how it is cared for. Spatter from heavy MIG work and grinding can burn through fabric, and repeated washing wears it down.

Replace it as soon as it is burnt, torn, stiff, or no longer fits snugly, since a damaged cover no longer protects.

Can I wash a head cover?

Follow the care label and the instructions that came with the cover, because washing temperature and method vary and some covers should not be washed hot or tumble-dried.

Let it dry fully and inspect it before reuse. Do not wear a cover that is badly soiled or contaminated with oil or chemicals, and replace it if it is thin, burnt or damaged.

Do I need a head cover with an air-fed helmet?

Many welders find it worthwhile because the air hose, breathing tube and helmet band sit close to the neck and head, where sparks can land. It also keeps the headband cleaner.

Follow the manufacturer's guidance for your helmet and your own risk assessment.
