Product Description
20 oz. Vermiculite Coated Fiberglass Welding Blanket
The 20 oz. Vermiculite Coated Fiberglass Welding Blanket features a unique vermiculite mineral coating that dramatically improves the blanket's resistance to molten metal splash and slag penetration. Vermiculite is a naturally occurring mineral that expands under heat, creating an effective barrier against molten metal penetration that standard fiberglass cannot match.
Key Features
- Vermiculite mineral coating — superior resistance to molten metal and slag penetration
- 20 oz. weight — balanced weight for both protection and handling ease
- Woven fiberglass base — proven structural integrity and flame resistance
- Brass grommets every 24 inches for secure hanging and attachment
- Continuous-use temperature: 1800°F (982°C)
- Intermittent-use temperature: 2200°F (1204°C)
- Excellent abrasion resistance from the mineral coating
Typical Applications
Vermiculite coated blankets are the preferred choice for foundry work, steel casting, and any application involving direct contact with molten metal. The mineral coating provides a level of protection against molten metal splash that far exceeds standard fiberglass, making these blankets essential safety equipment in foundries and steel mills.
