KV12240102 - Blue Split Leather Welding Gauntlets, 16-Inch Fully Lined

Heavy-Duty Protection for Industrial Fabrication

In the demanding environments of metal fabrication and industrial welding, personal protective equipment (PPE) must offer a balance of durability, safety, and comfort. The Blue Split Leather Welding Gloves are engineered to meet these rigorous standards. Manufactured from high-quality split leather, these gloves provide robust resistance against abrasion, cuts, and the intense heat generated during welding processes. The split leather material is selected for its toughness, ensuring a long service life even when subjected to rough handling and sharp metal edges common in structural steel work and heavy manufacturing.

A defining feature of this model is its 16-inch overall length. This extended gauntlet design is critical for safety compliance in many industrial settings, as it provides substantial coverage up the forearm. This additional length effectively shields the operator's wrists and lower arms from flying sparks, molten spatter, and radiant heat, significantly reducing the risk of burns in areas that standard-length gloves often leave exposed. This makes them particularly suitable for overhead welding or positions where falling debris is a concern.

Beyond external protection, operator comfort is addressed through a full internal lining. This lining serves a dual purpose: it acts as an additional thermal barrier, delaying heat transfer to the hand, and it absorbs perspiration to keep the user's hands dry and comfortable during long shifts. The combination of the tough exterior and the soft interior makes these gloves an excellent choice for procurement managers seeking reliable, cost-effective safety gear for teams performing MIG (GMAW), Stick (SMAW), and Flux-Cored (FCAW) welding. Their generic fit and robust construction make them a versatile staple for any welding workshop or maintenance department.
