8 ft x 8 ft welding blanket
The STEINER 372-8X8 is a fiberglass welding blanket measuring eight feet by eight feet. It provides a large protective surface for general welding and hot-work tasks. The blanket is heat cleaned and carries an FM Approved rating. It is intended for light-duty use in workshops and fabrication areas.
Thermal protection and handling
The uncoated fiberglass material withstands temperatures up to 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit. It resists abrasion and sparks while remaining flexible for draping over equipment. Grommets on each corner allow secure fastening with standard hardware. The blanket weighs 18 ounces per square yard and is 0.04 inches thick.
Light-duty rating limits heavy use
The duty rating is classified as light, so the blanket is not suited for continuous heavy-industrial exposure or molten-metal splash. Buyers needing higher temperature endurance or heavier fabric weight should consider alternative protection. The 24-inch grommet spacing provides multiple tie-down points. No coating is applied to the fiberglass surface.

Questions about this item
How is the 8 ft by 8 ft blanket secured, and what spacing mistake do installers make?
Use the grommets in each corner with fasteners spaced at 24 in intervals; the common error is skipping intermediate ties and letting the centre sag under spark load.
What upkeep does the uncoated 18 oz/sq yd fiberglass require, and when should it be replaced?
Shake off slag after each job and inspect for frayed edges or burned-through spots; replace once the 0.04 in material shows holes or the tan colour turns brittle.
Which limit appears first during continuous high-heat work?
The 1,000 Degrees F maximum temperature rating is reached before the abrasion-resistant surface degrades, so monitor heat exposure time rather than surface wear.
