BLOWTORCH WELDING BLANKET 3 UNITS PACK

ECONOMIC PACK OF 3 FIRE BLANKETS FOR BLOWTORCH WELDING

This fire resistant welding blanket is designed to protect surfaces, walls, and objects during welding work with a torch, typically performed on copper pipes, such as in plumbing. It comes in a pack of 3 blankets and is made with NT Preox 500AL fabric.

This fabric, manufactured by Texfire, is composed of a non-woven material of pre-carbonized fibers aluminized on one side, with a 12-micron layer of aluminum. The pre-carbonized fibers (fleece type) perform well in direct contact with the torch flame and act as a thermal insulator. The aluminum on the other side functions as a thermal shield and prevents temperature transfer, enhancing the blanket's thermal insulation.

Texfire commercializes this welding blanket in a 3 unit pack. The width of each blanket is 4,5 mm and each unit measures 30x20 cm. It stands out because of its lightness, with a total weight of only 33 gr., it has enough flexibility and adaptability to be placed between the copper tubes and the wall, or in other reduced areas where blowtorch welding is going to be performed. Despite its lightness, this fire blanket can withstand temperatures up to 300ºC in continuous works arriving to 700ºC in working peaks.

It’s used by placing the aluminized side in contact with the surface to be protected, so that the plush type side (the black colored one) is the one exposed to the contact with the blowtorch’s flame. It can be used both vertically and horizontally indifferently. In addition, each blanket can be used on multiple welding operations and thanks to their size and weight, they are easy to transport.
