Purpose-built welding shield
This ZORO SELECT blanket uses uncoated fiberglass measuring eight feet by six feet with an eighteen ounce per square yard weight. It withstands temperatures up to one thousand degrees Fahrenheit and carries FM Approved and NFPA seven zero one ratings. Light-duty rating and brass grommets on twenty-four inch centres allow quick hanging over work areas or equipment.
Practical limits of the material
The uncoated fiberglass surface sheds sparks and molten splatter but will not block heavy slag impact or prolonged direct flame beyond the rated maximum. At four hundredths of an inch thick the blanket remains flexible for draping yet offers minimal insulation against conducted heat. Brass grommets measuring four fifths of an inch accept standard hooks or wire but are not load-rated for lifting.
Deciding specification
The eighteen ounce per square yard weight combined with the one thousand degree Fahrenheit limit determines whether this blanket matches your process. Buyers who need heavier slag protection or a coated surface for oil resistance will need a different grade.
