Sellstrom Replacement Cover Plates for WHM2000 Welding Helmet - Clear

In this review of the Sellstrom Replacement Cover Plates for the WHM2000 welding helmet, the bottom line is simple: these clear inner and outer plates are for welders who want an inexpensive way to protect their helmet's filter and ADF without replacing the helmet itself. The kit includes five outer and five inner plates and is designed to prevent surface damage from spatter and scratches. For anyone using the Sellstrom WHM2000 Advantage Plus Series ADF Welding Helmet, this kit delivers straightforward, practical protection that extends the life of the more expensive filter components.

Key Features

• Inner and outer set: Includes five inner and five outer clear cover plates so users can replace both sides as they wear, minimizing downtime.
• Direct compatibility: Made to fit the Sellstrom WHM2000 Advantage Plus Series ADF Welding Helmet, which ensures a correct fit and easy replacement.
• Protects filter and ADF: Designed to shield the welding filter plate and auto darkening filter from spatter, scratches, and surface damage, preserving optics.
• Cost effective maintenance: Replacing cover plates is far cheaper than replacing the filter or ADF assembly, providing long-term value for shop budgets.
• Simple replacement: The clear plates are straightforward to install, allowing quick on-the-job swaps when a plate becomes scored or dirty.

Who It's For

These cover plates are aimed at professional welders, fabrication shops, and hobbyists who own the Sellstrom WHM2000 helmet and want to protect the auto darkening filter without extra expense. If you do frequent MIG, TIG, or stick welding where spatter and debris are common, replacing the thin sacrificial plates can keep your view clearer and your main filter intact.

If you do not own a WHM2000 helmet or use a different helmet model, this kit is not the right fit; look for cover plates specified for your brand and model. Also, if you prefer tinted or magnified cover lenses rather than plain clear plates, this basic clear set will not provide that function.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Includes both inner and outer plates so you can replace both surfaces as needed.
• Saves money by protecting the more expensive welding filter and ADF components.
• Clear plates maintain full visibility while shielding optics from surface damage.

Cons

• Covers are plain clear only, so they do not add shading or magnification options.
