Welding fabric with reflective pigment for radiant heat protection
Z-Shield™ heavyweight welding fabrics are silver in color. They feature a substantial Zetex® fiberglass fabric base treated with a reflective silver acrylic coating. The Z-Shield™ Silver acrylic coating contains a silver pigment with reflective properties that reflect radiant heat while also protecting from sparks, extreme heat, and abrasion.
The Z-Shield™ A-1220 Silver fabric combines the Z-Shield™ Silver coating with a Zetex® Steel™ wire fabric base. The Z-Shield™ A-1220 Silver style is ideal for applications that require a strong and vibration resistant welding fabric.
Z-Shield™ Silver heavyweight welding fabrics are only coated on one side. The silver side of the fabric should be positioned to face the heat source.
Z-Shield™ Silver heavyweight welding fabrics can withstand temperatures up to 1000°F / 540°C and protect from these high temperatures for a longer duration than lightweight and midweight welding fabrics.
