Overview
MapleWeld ClariView 80: Large-View Auto-Darkening Helmet for MIG, TIG, Stick & Plasma Cutting
The MapleWeld ClariView 80 is a large-view auto-darkening welding helmet with a 100 × 60 mm (3.94 × 2.36 in) window, 1/1/1/2 optical class and two variable shade ranges: DIN 5–9 for plasma cutting and DIN 9–13 for MIG, TIG and Stick welding. The filter switches from a DIN 4 light state to dark in 0.2 ms and blocks UV/IR radiation up to DIN 16 at all times.
With about 1.9 times the viewing area of the AeroView 60, you see the whole joint, your torch angle and the puddle without bobbing your head. A continuously adjustable 0.1–0.8 s delay, solar power backed by a replaceable CR2450 battery and a heavy-duty polypropylene shell make it a strong all-process helmet for fabrication shops, trades and serious DIY welders across Canada.
Key Features
- Large 100 × 60 mm viewing area: 6,000 mm² of view, about 1.9 times the AeroView 60 and 1.5 times the NovaSight 55, for better awareness on long or awkward joints.
- Two variable shade ranges, DIN 5–9 and DIN 9–13: One helmet for plasma cutting and for MIG, TIG and Stick welding.
- 0.2 ms light-to-dark switching: Fast arc detection keeps flash exposure to a minimum.
- Continuously adjustable delay (0.1–0.8 s): Short for tacking, long for high-amperage welds where the puddle keeps glowing.
- 1/1/1/2 optical class: Clear, low-distortion view across the full window.
- Solar power + replaceable CR2450 battery: Fully automatic on/off for long, uninterrupted service.
- Permanent UV/IR protection: Up to DIN 16, even when the filter is switched off.
- Heavy-duty polypropylene shell: Light enough for full-day wear; operates from -5°C to +55°C.

Frequently Asked Questions
How big is the ClariView 80 viewing area?
100 × 60 mm (3.94 × 2.36 in), or 6,000 mm². That is about 1.9 times the viewing area of the AeroView 60 and 1.5 times the NovaSight 55.
Can I use the ClariView 80 for plasma cutting?
Yes. Its DIN 5–9 range covers the suggested plasma cutting shades from shade 5 at 20–40 A up to shade 9 at 80–300 A. Switch to the DIN 9–13 range for welding.
Is the ClariView 80 good for TIG welding?
Yes, for general TIG work: settings of DIN 9 to 12 cover the suggested shades from under 50 A up to 150 A. No minimum TIG amperage is published for this model; for very low-amp work, the ProDuty 94 is rated from 5 A.
What is the difference between the ClariView 80 and the ArcDuty 90?
Their filters share the same core specifications: 100 × 60 mm view, DIN 4 light state, DIN 5–9 and 9–13 dark ranges, 0.2 ms switching, 1/1/1/2 optical class and a CR2450 backup battery. The ClariView 80 has a continuously adjustable 0.1–0.8 s delay; the ArcDuty 90 uses three fixed delay steps (0.1, 0.4 and 0.8 s). Choose on shell styling and how you prefer to set the delay.
What delay setting should I use?
Use a short delay (about 0.1–0.3 s) for tack welding and production work so you see the next joint sooner, and a longer delay (0.6–0.8 s) for high-amperage MIG or Stick, where the hot puddle keeps glowing after the arc stops.
What battery does the ClariView 80 use?
Solar cells backed by one replaceable CR2450 lithium coin cell. The helmet turns on and off automatically.
Does the ClariView 80 work in cold weather?
It operates from -5°C to +55°C and stores from -10°C to +70°C. In unheated shops, keep it warm between jobs so the filter responds at full speed.
