Map the exposure
Identify the welding process, spark and spatter pattern, direct molten-metal contact, duration, surface orientation and wear from moving the blanket. Clarify whether it is a one-time barrier or a repeatedly handled product.
Match material to duty
Fiberglass, coated fiberglass, vermiculite-treated fabric and high silica are possible material families for different requirements. The right choice depends on the complete construction and its evaluation against the application.
- Welding protection products can be supplied in different fabric systems and finished formats.
- VETEX welding blanket material capability can reach 1200°C, depending on the selected material and use. That figure does not mean every fabric resists direct slag or continuous operation at 1200°C.
- Confirm seams, hems, eyelets, straps and size as part of the finished specification.
RFQ checklist
Share the work process, expected spatter or slag, orientation, dimensions, quantity, edge treatment, test requirement and packaging. Include a drawing or current sample when available.
Frequently asked questions
Does a fabric's maximum temperature prove slag resistance?
No. Temperature rating and resistance to molten-metal spatter are different questions. Qualify the specific exposure and complete construction.
What should I send for a useful welding blanket quotation?
Send the process, spark or slag type, orientation, dimensions, quantity, edge and attachment details, test requirement and target market.
