OVERVIEW

Weldas Cool FR Hybrid Welding Jacket – Model 33-8060-L

The Weldas 33-8060-L is a premium hybrid welding jacket designed to address the common trade-off between comfort and protection in industrial environments. By integrating two distinct materials, Weldas has created a garment that offers superior heat management without compromising safety in critical areas. The torso is constructed from 9 oz. navy flame retardant (FR) cotton, a material chosen for its lightweight properties and ability to allow air circulation. This helps regulate body temperature during long shifts or in warm workshop environments, significantly reducing the risk of heat stress and welder fatigue.

While the body prioritizes comfort, the sleeves are built for rigorous defense. Manufactured from high-quality side split cowhide leather, the sleeves provide maximum resistance against heavy spatter, sparks, and radiant heat—hazards that are most prevalent on a welder's arms during operation. This strategic placement of leather ensures that the areas most exposed to molten metal are fully shielded, while the rest of the upper body benefits from the flexibility and softness of cotton. The leather is tanned to a tan color, providing a professional two-tone aesthetic that is instantly recognizable as quality Weldas gear.

Safety features extend beyond the materials themselves. The jacket utilizes a closure system featuring dielectric insulated snaps, which are non-conductive and enhance safety when working with electrical arc welding equipment. A spatter guard behind the front closure prevents sparks from entering through the gaps, and a hook and loop mechanism at the collar and wrists allows for a customized, secure fit that keeps debris out. This jacket is an ideal solution for welders who find full leather jackets too heavy and hot but require more protection than a standard cotton cape or apron can provide.

FAQ

A hybrid jacket combines the lightweight breathability of flame-retardant cotton on the body with the heavy-duty protection of leather on the sleeves. This design keeps the welder cooler than a full leather jacket while still protecting the arms from high spatter exposure.

Because of the combination of leather and FR cotton, the jacket should not be machine washed like standard clothing. Spot clean the leather with a damp cloth or leather cleaner. The FR cotton is treated to withstand some washing, but frequent machine washing may degrade the leather sleeves. Consult the care label for specific instructions.

The 'L' in the SKU indicates a Large size. This typically fits a chest measurement of approximately 42-44 inches.

The snaps are dielectric, meaning they are insulated and non-conductive. This is a safety feature designed to prevent electrical shock or arc flash conduction through the fasteners.

Yes, the navy cotton body is made from 9 oz. flame retardant (FR) treated cotton. It is designed to self-extinguish when the ignition source is removed, though it is not as burn-proof as the leather sleeves.

Yes, the Weldas 33-8060 series typically includes an inside pocket to keep small tools or personal items protected from sparks and spatter.

While the leather sleeves provide excellent protection for overhead work, the cotton body is less resistant to heavy molten slag than full leather. For extensive overhead welding where large amounts of slag may fall on the chest, a full leather jacket or additional leather apron is recommended.

'Cool FR' refers to the Weldas line of clothing that utilizes flame-retardant cotton to allow for better airflow and heat dissipation compared to non-breathable materials like full leather or heavy synthetics.
