ESAB has introduced a new type of welding glove that provides protection against radiated heat at up to 1500°C. This level of protection is achieved on the back of the glove using a combination of woven ceramic fibres and aluminised Kevlar fibres. On the palm of the glove, high-grade 1.3mm side split leather and Thermolate felt provide contact heat protection to 1200°C.

Further features of the new glove include a full jersey lining, a wing thumb and fully welted Kevlar stitching. Despite the high specification, the glove is reported to remain comfortable when worn for extended periods.
