FLAME RETARDANT BLANKET FOR WELDING 900ºC, LIGHT AND REVERSIBLE
WELD S2 blanket for welding is flame retardant and is tailored with Texfire’s WELS2 fabric. It’s designed to be used on both sides, ensuring the best safety and protection to workers and their environment, before incandescent sparks and melted metal projections caused in welding, cutting and grinding tasks. Its silicone coating for high temperatures on both sides makes it repel sparks and molten metals projections. This blanket is completely impermeable to liquids and fumes and can be used on both sides. It is a very flexible and malleable product. In addition, it offers the same level of protection on both sides, which allows you to protect and work without any problem.
The WELD S2 flame retardant welding blanket has been developed to protect against welding sparks (TIG, MIG, Electrode,...) cutting and grinding. It is a versatile product that can be used to protect surfaces, objects and people from projections and splashes of molten metal. Texfire recommends its use in a diagonal or vertical position.

The blanket is reinforced with bies tape and made with flame retardant thread. It presents metallic eyelets in each one of the corners to make its installation easy. Besides, it includes an elastic band to roll up and store comfortably. It is available in 2 sizes:
- 150x100 cm (900 gr.)
- 200x150 cm (1.750 gr.)
The fabric used in the making of this blanket complies with part of the EN ISO 13501-1 standard - Classification based on the fire behavior of construction products and building elements - achieving results A2 s1 d0 and B s1 d0.
