TTU409 - Weldmate Heavy-Duty Brown Leather Welding Cape Sleeves, XXL

Heavy-Duty Protection for Industrial Welders

The Weldmate Leather Cape Sleeves (Brown, XXL) are an essential component of personal protective equipment (PPE) for professional welders. Manufactured by Techniweld, these cape sleeves are designed to offer robust protection against the intense heat, sparks, and molten spatter generated during welding, cutting, and gouging operations. The product is identified by the SKU TTU409 and is specifically tailored for individuals requiring an Extra Extra Large (XXL) fit.

Constructed from high-quality split cowhide leather, these sleeves provide a superior barrier against thermal hazards. Split cowhide is the industry standard for heavy-duty welding apparel due to its thickness, durability, and natural resistance to abrasion and puncture. The leather is tanned to a rich brown finish, which helps hide stains and soot accumulation common in workshop environments. To ensure the structural integrity of the garment, all seams are stitched with Kevlar® thread. Kevlar is renowned for its high tensile strength and heat resistance, preventing seam failure even when exposed to direct sparks or high temperatures.

The cape sleeve design is particularly advantageous for welders working in hot climates or confined spaces. Unlike a full welding jacket, which can cause overheating, cape sleeves cover only the arms, shoulders, and upper chest. This allows for significant heat dissipation from the torso and back. The design features an open back with an adjustable strap system, ensuring the garment remains secure without restricting movement. The collar and cuffs are equipped with heavy-duty snaps, allowing for a snug fit that prevents sparks from entering the sleeves. These sleeves are also designed to be compatible with detachable bibs (often available separately), allowing users to customize their level of frontal protection based on the specific task at hand.

Whether used in stick welding, MIG applications, or plasma cutting, the Weldmate Leather Cape Sleeves provide reliable, professional-grade safety. They meet the rigorous demands of industrial fabrication shops, shipyards, and construction sites, ensuring that workers remain safe and compliant with safety standards.
