Z-Shield™ Welding Fabrics

High temperature protection from fire, sparks, and slag

Z-Shield fabrics are used in shipbuilding, power generation, chemical processing, oil and gas, and other industries where sparks, molten metal splatter, and hot works operations pose serious fire hazards. They offer superior resistance to high temperatures, abrasion, slag, and burn-through without the risk of toxic smoke outgassing.  We offer a variety of styles to support applications ranging from light welding and grinding to heavy welding, metal cutting, and stress relieving.

Typical Industries: Architectural & Construction, Foundries, Glass & Casting Operations, Insulation & Lagging, Military, Defense & Homeland Security, Personal Protective Equipment & Apparel, Petrochemical & Refinery, Power Generation, Process Equipment, Shipbuilding & Marine, Welding & Fire Protection
