KG-110-XL - Navy Proban FR Cotton Welding Cape Sleeve - XL

High-Performance Flame Resistant Protection

The KG-110-XL Jacket Half Proban Cotton is a specialized safety garment designed for industrial professionals who require reliable protection against heat and sparks without the bulk of traditional leather gear. Manufactured from 100% cotton that has undergone the Proban quality-controlled technological process, this jacket retains flame-retardant properties that are durable through multiple wash cycles. The fabric is engineered to self-extinguish when the source of ignition is removed, significantly reducing the risk of burn injuries in welding and fabrication environments.

This 'half jacket' or cape sleeve style is particularly advantageous for bench work or positional welding where the lower torso is protected by a workbench or apron. The 18-inch length covers the chest, shoulders, and upper back, ensuring that the areas most exposed to falling sparks and spatter are shielded. The navy blue color is practical for industrial settings, as it effectively masks oil stains and workshop grime, extending the visual life of the garment. The use of high-quality cotton ensures that the material remains soft against the skin, preventing the chafing often associated with stiffer synthetic blends.

Functionality is key in the design of the KG-110-XL. It features robust snap closures that are dielectric and durable, allowing for quick donning and doffing—a critical safety feature in emergency situations. The sleeves are tailored to allow for a full range of motion, essential for precise welding tasks. This jacket serves as an excellent primary layer for TIG and MIG welding or as a supplementary protective layer in high-heat environments. It is designed to be compatible with snap-on bibs (available separately) for users requiring full-front protection.
