KG-214-L - 13oz Proban FR Cotton Welding Jacket, Navy, Large

Reliable Flame Resistant Protection for Industrial Environments

The KG-214-L Proban Cotton Welding Jacket is an essential piece of personal protective equipment (PPE) designed for welders and industrial workers requiring flame resistance without the bulk of leather. Manufactured from high-quality 13 oz. Proban® treated cotton, this jacket provides a robust barrier against sparks, heat, and occasional spatter, making it ideal for light to medium-duty welding processes such as TIG welding or low-amperage MIG welding. The Proban treatment is a technological process that gives cotton fabrics reliable flame-retardant properties that are durable through laundering, ensuring long-term safety compliance in the workplace.

Comfort is a critical factor in maintaining productivity and safety compliance. Unlike heavy leather jackets that can cause heat stress and fatigue, this cotton jacket is breathable, allowing for better air circulation to keep the wearer cool during long shifts or in hot shop environments. The Navy blue color is not only professional but practical, as it effectively conceals grease, oil, and dirt marks common in industrial settings, extending the visual life of the garment. The jacket is tailored with a 30-inch length, providing ample coverage for the torso and upper hips, protecting the wearer's clothing underneath from burns and debris.

Safety features include a snap closure system down the front. Snaps are preferred in welding environments over zippers because they are less likely to jam with debris and allow for rapid removal of the jacket in the event of an emergency or spark intrusion. Additionally, the jacket features an inside pocket, keeping personal items or small tools protected from the welding arc and sparks. This jacket represents a smart balance between safety, durability, and operator comfort.
