OVERVIEW

Industrial-Grade Leather Protection

The Techniweld Weldmate Leather Welding Jacket (SKU: TTU398) is a premium personal protective equipment (PPE) garment designed for the rigors of heavy industrial welding. Sized Medium with a 30-inch length, this jacket is engineered to provide comprehensive coverage for the welder's torso, extending below the waist to offer protection against falling sparks and molten slag. The garment is constructed from high-quality side split cowhide, a material selected for its uniform thickness and exceptional abrasion resistance. The leather is treated with a specialized "Lava Brown" finish, which not only provides a distinctive professional appearance but also aids in heat deflection and resists the accumulation of grime and oil common in fabrication environments.

Durability is a core component of the TTU398's design. All structural seams are double-stitched using high-tensile Kevlar thread. Kevlar is inherently flame-resistant and does not melt or degrade under high temperatures, ensuring that the jacket maintains its structural integrity even when exposed to direct spatter or intense radiant heat. This makes the jacket particularly suitable for high-amperage processes such as Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) and Flux-Cored Arc Welding (FCAW), where spatter generation is significant. The jacket features a reinforced front closure system utilizing heavy-duty snaps that are dielectric and shrouded to prevent arc flash conduction or premature failure due to spatter buildup.

Ergonomics and safety compliance are balanced in the Weldmate design. The 30-inch length is a critical specification for industrial safety managers, as it ensures adequate overlap with welding aprons or chaps, eliminating dangerous gaps in protection. The stand-up collar is designed to interface seamlessly with welding helmets, protecting the vulnerable neck area from UV radiation and burns. Adjustable wrist cuffs allow the wearer to cinch the sleeves tightly over the gauntlets of welding gloves, preventing debris from entering the sleeve. This jacket represents a cost-effective yet high-performance solution for MRO procurement and safety equipment stocking.

FAQ

The Medium size typically fits a chest measurement of approximately 38 to 40 inches. Due to the thick leather material, it is designed to be worn over a light work shirt.

No, leather welding jackets should not be machine washed or dry cleaned as it removes the natural oils and causes the leather to stiffen and crack. Spot clean with a damp cloth or use a specialized leather cleaner.

Kevlar thread is extremely heat-resistant and strong. Unlike cotton or polyester thread, it will not melt or burn away when exposed to welding sparks, ensuring the seams of the jacket remain intact.

Yes, it typically includes an interior pocket. Exterior pockets are avoided in welding jackets to prevent sparks and hot slag from getting trapped inside them.

The jacket is made from side split cowhide, which generally ranges from 1.2mm to 1.4mm in thickness, providing a balance between heavy-duty protection and flexibility.

While it offers excellent protection, full leather jackets can be heavy and warm for fine TIG work. Many TIG welders prefer lighter options like a hybrid cloth/leather jacket, but this jacket is perfectly safe to use for TIG if maximum protection is desired.

Lava Brown refers to the specific heat-resistant tanning and color finish of the leather. It is a standard industry designation for high-quality, heat-deflecting split cowhide.

A medium leather welding jacket of this length typically weighs between 3 to 5 lbs (approx. 1.5 - 2.2 kg), depending on the specific hide density.
