TTU391 - 14-Inch Brown Leather Welding Spats with Kevlar Stitching

Heavy-Duty Leg and Foot Protection for Professional Welders

The Techniweld 14-inch Leather Welding Spats (TTU391) are an essential component of personal protective equipment (PPE) for any industrial welder. Designed to bridge the gap between your welding apron or pants and your safety boots, these spats provide critical protection against one of the most common injuries in the trade: burns to the lower legs and feet. Molten metal spatter, slag, and sparks obey gravity, often falling directly onto the laces or into the tops of work boots. These leather spats create a robust barrier, deflecting hazardous debris and ensuring that your focus remains on the weld puddle, not on burning sensations in your feet.

Manufactured from high-quality split cowhide leather, these spats are built to withstand the rigorous demands of heavy fabrication, shipyard work, and structural welding. Leather is naturally heat-resistant and durable, offering excellent abrasion resistance against rough metal edges. A defining feature of this model is the use of Kevlar stitching throughout the construction. Unlike standard cotton or nylon thread, which can singe and unravel upon contact with hot sparks, Kevlar is inherently flame-resistant and incredibly strong. This ensures that the seams hold tight even after months of exposure to high temperatures, significantly extending the service life of the product.

The 14-inch height offers generous coverage, extending well up the shin to overlap with other protective clothing. This length is particularly beneficial during out-of-position welding, such as overhead or vertical-up passes, where falling sparks are inevitable. The spats are designed with adjustable straps to secure them firmly around the leg and under the boot, preventing them from shifting or riding up during movement. By investing in these spats, you not only protect your skin but also prolong the life of your work boots, preventing laces from burning off and leather from drying out due to heat exposure.

Key Benefits:

• Superior Material: Rugged split cowhide leather deflects heat and sparks.
• Heat-Resistant Assembly: Sewn entirely with Kevlar thread for seam integrity.
• Full Coverage: 14-inch length protects the vulnerable shin and ankle areas.
• Secure Fit: Adjustable strapping system keeps the spat in place all day.
