I have a fibre metal pipeliner with the ratchet head gear. I know they also have the rubber band style also. What are the pros and cons of each?Lincoln AC-225 90 amp flux core
Reply:The pros of the rubber band are that the ratchet nob doesn't stick out the back when your in a really tight spot or on your back. The rubber band is field repairable with a length of surgical tubing. I think the rubber band may be a problem if you have long hair and no welding cap.
Reply:The rubber band is a PITA to get the hood on your head with welding gloves on.Don’t pay any attention to meI’m just a hobbyist!CarlDynasty 300V350-Pro w/pulseSG Spool gun1937 IdealArc-300PowerArc 200ST3 SA-200sVantage 400
Reply:Keep your ratchet head gear.Just a couple welders, big hammers, grinders, and torches.Work will free you.Men in dirty jeans built this country, while men in clean suits have destroyed it. Trump/Carson 2016-2024
Reply:I have 5 with ratchet, and one rubber band.I use the rubber band with like a winter cap and hooded sweat shirt out in the cold.Anything else, its a welders cap and the ratchet headgear.Just a couple welders, big hammers, grinders, and torches.Work will free you.Men in dirty jeans built this country, while men in clean suits have destroyed it.

Reply:In my very little experience, there's ratchet headgear and then there's Ratchet Headgear. The Jackson 370 system is really nice. The system on my low end Miller AD hood for hobbyists is a real annoyance. I hate it.  I mention it because I wouldn't look at all ratchets the same.
Reply:I'm referring to the fibre metal ratchet headgear that comes standard on fibremetal helmets.It's high quality and comfortable.Just a couple welders, big hammers, grinders, and torches.Work will free you.Men in dirty jeans built this country, while men in clean suits have destroyed it.

Reply:Sounds like the band head gear is just a PITA. I'll stick with the ratchet.Lincoln AC-225 90 amp flux core
