Welding and Fire Blankets

Foretex welding blankets are engineered to perform in high-temperature environments while offering strong resistance to abrasion, sparks, and molten metal exposure. They are designed to provide reliable protection across a range of industrial welding and cutting applications.

For light-duty operations, these blankets are typically used as vertical shields to protect surrounding areas from minor sparks and heat exposure. Moderate-duty applications involve use as vertical barriers with added layers, offering enhanced protection against increased levels of spatter and heat. In heavy-duty environments, the blankets are built to withstand intense welding conditions, including continuous exposure to sparks, molten spatter, and slag.

Common applications include protective barriers for floors and machinery to prevent damage from welding debris, as well as use in high-risk environments requiring thermal shielding. In some cases, high-temperature fabrics derived from similar materials are also used in the production of protective gear such as heat-resistant clothing and specialized suits for hazardous conditions.
