Welding Blanket PROMAX WB1100
PROMAX WB1100 is a heavy duty high-temperature silica glass fabric for protection against heavier sparks, spatter, slag, etc. Also used for heat treatment / stress relieving / heat retention (wrapping of heated objects to slow cooling). Withstand up to 1100°c, with heavier weight for increased durability and insulating properties. Available in blankets and rolls.

KEY FEATURES
- ‘Heavy duty’ high-temperature Silica Glass fabric
- Withstands up to 1100°c exposure
- For protection against heavier sparks & spatter, etc
- 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
- Heavy 1200 gsm fabric for increased durability and insulation properties
- Softer and more flexible than glass fibre fabrics
APPLICATION INFO*
- For protection against sparks, spatter, slag, light molten splash, and intermittent flame
- Suitable for protecting objects during grinding, welding, oxy cutting, gouging, etc
- Also a good choice for heat treatment / stress relieving (wrapping of heated objects to slow cooling), being a softer & flexible fabric
SPECIFICATIONS
- Temperature Resistance: Up to 1100°c
- Nominal Thickness: 1.2mm (2-3mm at hem)
- Nominal Weight: 1,200g/m2
- Colour: Golden brown
- Fabric Type: Silica glass
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
- If protecting critical or costly surfaces / items, allways 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 neccessary to use in 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 airborn fibres and any dust/debris that has fallen on the blanket during use
- While blanket will withstand up to 1100°c , a safety margin should always be allowed for, especially in critical applications. Recommended maximum long-duration direct temperature exposure is 700-800°c.
- Consider using WB1250+ blankets for more demanding applications
- Worn or damaged blankets will compromise protection and should be replaced
