PW24B1010 - 10x10 Heavy Duty Acrylic Fiberglass Welding Blanket 24oz

Industrial Grade Spark and Heat Protection

The Techniweld PW24B1010 is a premium industrial welding blanket designed for rigorous safety requirements in manufacturing and fabrication environments. Measuring 10 feet by 10 feet, this blanket provides substantial coverage area, making it suitable for isolating large welding stations, covering machinery, or creating temporary safety partitions on the shop floor. Constructed from a base of high-strength fiberglass, the material is impregnated with a specialized acrylic coating. This 24-ounce per square yard composition offers a robust barrier against thermal hazards.

The primary function of this blanket is to provide thermal protection against sparks, welding spatter, and light slag. The base fiberglass fabric boasts a continuous operating temperature rating of approximately 1000°F (538°C), ensuring structural integrity even under significant thermal stress. The acrylic coating serves a dual purpose: it enhances the abrasion resistance of the fabric, extending the service life of the blanket in rough industrial settings, and it encapsulates the fiberglass fibers. This encapsulation significantly reduces the airborne release of fibers and minimizes the skin irritation commonly associated with handling raw fiberglass materials.

Engineered for versatility, the blanket features reinforced hemming and durable grommets spaced along the edges. These attachment points allow for secure suspension as a vertical curtain or screen, effectively containing sparks within a designated hot work area. While primarily designed for vertical use to deflect sparks, its heavy weight allows for limited horizontal applications where protection from light spatter is required. It is an essential safety component for MRO operations, ensuring compliance with workplace safety standards regarding hot work and fire prevention.
