Promax WB1000 1.8 x 0.9m Welding Blanket Weldclass WC-06688

DESCRIPTION:

PROMAX WB1000 is a medium-duty welding blanket made from high-temperature fabric for protection against grinding sparks, medium-to-heavy welding spatter, etc. Also used for heat treatment/stress relieving/heat retention (wrapping of heated objects to slow cooling). Specially treated glass fibre to withstand up to 800°c long duration and 1000°c short duration exposure, and to improve insulating properties. Strong, durable, and abrasion-resistant, with a heavier weight for longer service life.

FEATURES:

• Medium-duty high-temperature welding blanket.
• Specially treated glass fabric for higher temperature resistance.
• Withstands up to 800°c long duration/ 1000°c short duration exposure.
• For protection against medium-to-heavy sparks and spatter, etc.
• Provides higher temperature resistance than standard glass fibre fabric, without the higher cost of silica.
• Also used for heat treatment/stress relieving / heat retention (wrapping of heated objects to slow cooling).
• Gives off very minimal gas/fumes when burned, for safer use and to prevent surface contamination when used to wrap objects.
• Strong and abrasion-resistant.
• Heavier weight/thickness for longer service life, durability, and better insulating properties.

APPLICATION INFO: 

• For protection against sparks, spatter, and intermittent/passing flame.
• Suitable for protecting objects during grinding, welding, oxy cutting, gouging, etc.
• Also used for heat treatment/stress relieving (wrapping  of heated objects to slow cooling)
• Good strength, durability, and abrasion-resistance make the WB1000 a good choice for rugged environments.
• Withstands intermittent short-duration flame exposure; however, not recommended for prolonged/constant direct flame exposure. For resistance to longer-duration flame exposure, Promax WB1000 is more suitable.

SPECIFICATIONS:

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:

• If protecting critical or costly surfaces/items, always use more layers initially, and test on a non-critical surface first.
• When using for surface protection: If possible, use on an incline of at least 15 degrees, or when necessary to use in a horizontal position, add more layers.
• Where the blanket is in closer proximity to the source of sparks, etc., consider adding more layers of blanket/fabric, as the sparks/spatter will have less time to cool and will be at a higher temperature at the point of touching/impact with the blanket.
• Use hand, eye and respiratory protection during handling and use, to protect against airborne fibres and any dust/debris that has fallen on the blanket during use.
• While a blanket will withstand up to 800-1000°c, a safety margin should always be allowed for, especially in critical applications. Recommended maximum long-duration direct contact temperature exposure is 600-700°c.
