Control Heat, Sparks With Flame Resistant Welding Gloves
Project work is time sensitive and safety sensitive so make sure you're dressed right with safety welding gloves, leather bib, some form of leg and shin protection as well as heavy duty work boots. Workplace temperatures near an arc welder will exceed 700-degrees F, so even a Nomex welding glove will exceed its temperature rating beyond 700F.
In order to maximize the wear and longevity of your welding gloves , consider the safety accessories such as welding glove heat pads to deflect or radiate heat away from your actual glove material. Better quality welding gloves have straps and fitments to use with your heat pad.
Deciding On The Best Welding Gloves
You want all-day comfort with maximum flexibility and gripping control from your welding gloves. Consider the following buyers' guideline:-
High Performance Models. High grade performance welding gloves may include an aluminized back panel, which acts to directly deflect heat off your glove. All-leather welding gloves will definitely heat-up, crack and break down without some form of supplemental protection.
Material Grades. Dealing with fire, you need to select welding gloves with either Nomex heat-resistant materials and/or Kevlar threading. Combining these materials with high quality deerskin gloves will give you protection from a low of 400F to about 700F of direct flame contact. All cowhide gloves, while certainly functional, will not be so fire retardant and will certainly break down rapidly.
Puncture, Tear And Heat Resistance. Online specialists can guide you on how to obtain these critical three safety protections in your choice of welding glove. Sizes range from XS to XXXL in five-finger performance welding gloves.
Online specialists offer extensive product range, all sizes and low prices on the top selling work glove manufacturer brands.
