38-4328-XL - Weldas Arc Knight Grey Leather Welding Cape Sleeves - XL

Technical Overview

The Weldas Arc Knight Grey Cape Sleeves (SKU: 38-4328-XL) represent a high-standard solution for personal protective equipment (PPE) in industrial welding environments. Engineered from premium-grade grey split cowhide leather, these sleeves are designed to withstand the rigorous demands of MIG, Stick, and high-amperage welding processes. The leather material provides a high degree of thermal insulation and abrasion resistance, effectively shielding the operator's arms, shoulders, and upper chest from molten metal spatter, sparks, and radiant heat.

Structural integrity is maintained through the use of 3-ply Kevlar® stitching throughout the garment. Kevlar® is chosen for its exceptional tensile strength and inherent flame-resistant properties, ensuring that seams do not degrade or unravel when exposed to extreme temperatures. The cape sleeve configuration features an open back, which is a critical design element for thermal management, allowing for heat dissipation and increased airflow around the torso—essential for reducing operator fatigue in hot working conditions.

The unit is equipped with heavy-duty, dielectric-insulated snaps that provide a secure closure while minimizing the risk of electric arc conduction. The cuffs are adjustable, allowing for a tight seal over welding gloves to prevent debris entry. This XL model is sized to accommodate a broader range of body types while maintaining ergonomic freedom of movement. It is designed to function as a standalone upper-body protector or in conjunction with a detachable bib apron (available separately) for full frontal coverage.
