Why Heat Shield Matters in Stick Welding
Stick welding and flux-core applications generate extreme radiant and conductive heat. The aluminized shield on our gloves reflects up to 95% of radiant heat away from the most vulnerable areas, reducing the risk of burns and fatigue, while the split cowhide and wool lining provide the tactile control and comfort welders need for precision and safety.
