Product identity
Wilson 36156 is a 32 oz silicone-coated fibreglass welding blanket designed for personnel and equipment protection during hazardous operations. It serves welders, fabricators and maintenance crews who need a durable heat shield that can also function as a hanging curtain. The dark red material resists oil and water while remaining abrasion-resistant in tough shop conditions. Grommets along the edges allow quick vertical mounting when required.
Working temperature
The blanket is rated for a 500°F working temperature, making it suitable for welding, flame-cutting and grinding tasks that generate intense radiant heat. This single limit determines whether the blanket can handle a specific job; operations exceeding 500°F will need a different grade of protection. The coating maintains its integrity at this temperature without melting or releasing harmful fumes. Buyers who need higher continuous heat resistance should look for a product with a higher rated limit.
Build integration
Use the blanket as a flat shield, wrap it around pipe welds for low cooling and tempering, or hang it vertically via the grommets to create a protective curtain. Its oil and water resistance lets it survive splatter and coolant exposure without degrading. The flexible fibreglass base conforms to irregular shapes while the silicone coating adds durability for repeated handling. It frees up rigid screens for fixed stations and provides a portable barrier that can be repositioned as work moves.

Questions about this item
How does the 32 oz weight perform once the blanket is draped over hot pipework?
The 32 oz silicone-coated fibreglass handles a 500°F working temperature, resists oil and water, and stays durable under abrasion while wrapping pipe and welds.
What does the silicone coating actually stop in a workshop?
The coating makes the fibreglass resistant to oil and water while maintaining a 500°F working temperature for welding, flame-cutting and grinding protection.
How do I hang the blanket vertically without extra hardware?
Built-in grommets let you hang the blanket as a curtain for vertical shielding during hazardous operations.
