0700010361 - ESAB Proban Flame Resistant Welding Jacket - XL

Industrial Grade Protection with the ESAB FR Welding Jacket

The ESAB FR Welding Jacket (SKU: 0700010361) represents a critical component in personal protective equipment (PPE) strategies for industrial welding and fabrication environments. Designed to bridge the gap between heavy leather protection and standard workwear, this jacket utilizes advanced flame-resistant (FR) fabric technology. This material is engineered to self-extinguish when removed from an ignition source, providing essential protection against sparks, light spatter, and intermittent heat exposure common in MIG and TIG welding processes.

For facility managers and safety officers, the ESAB FR Jacket offers a compliant and cost-effective solution for equipping workforce teams. The jacket is tailored in an X-Large size, accommodating a wide range of body types while allowing for necessary undergarments. Unlike disposable or low-quality alternatives, this garment is constructed with durability in mind, featuring reinforced stitching and high-quality zippers that withstand the rigors of daily industrial use. The inclusion of a high collar ensures that the neck area—often vulnerable to UV radiation and arc burn—is fully shielded, reducing the risk of occupational skin damage.

Operational efficiency is enhanced through the jacket's ergonomic design. The lightweight nature of the FR fabric significantly reduces the thermal burden on the operator compared to full leather hides, particularly in warm manufacturing plants or during summer months. This reduction in heat stress correlates directly with improved focus and productivity. Furthermore, the jacket features practical storage solutions, including secure pockets for engineering markers, schematics, or personal items, keeping essential tools within arm's reach. By investing in ESAB's trusted safety gear, organizations ensure their personnel are protected by equipment that meets rigorous industry standards for flame resistance and build quality.

This product is specifically suited for maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) applications where versatility is key. It serves effectively in light-to-medium duty welding tasks, plasma cutting, and grinding operations. The black and yellow color scheme not only aligns with ESAB's professional branding but also hides grime and soot effectively, maintaining a professional appearance for longer periods between washes.
