OVERVIEW

Stay Cool and Protected with Lincoln's Traditional FR Jacket

When the heat is on, but heavy leather feels like overkill, the Lincoln Electric Traditional FR Cloth Welding Jacket (K2985-L) is your go-to solution for comfort and safety. Designed for the modern welder who values breathability without sacrificing protection, this jacket is crafted from premium 9 oz. flame-retardant cotton. The lightweight fabric allows for superior air flow, keeping you cool during long TIG sessions or light-duty MIG work. Unlike stiff leather jackets that can restrict movement and trap body heat, this cloth jacket moves with you, reducing fatigue and helping you stay focused on the puddle.

One of the standout features of this jacket is its practicality for daily use. We know that welding environments can be dirty, and gear gets grimy fast. That's why Lincoln Electric designed this jacket to be fully machine washable. You can wash it up to 50 times, and it will still retain its flame-retardant properties, ensuring you stay safe shift after shift. The black 9 oz. cotton not only looks professional but also hides soot and dirt better than lighter colors. The jacket also features a smart multi-layer seam pattern sewn with polyester, preventing the rips and tears that often plague inferior garments.

Fit and function are at the heart of the K2985-L. The jacket comes in a standard Large size with a generous 30-inch length, ensuring your lower back remains covered even when you are bending or reaching. The sleeves feature snap buttons that allow you to cinch the cuffs tight around your wrists or gloves, effectively blocking out stray sparks. For those who need to keep a soapstone, scribe, or phone handy, the inside left pocket provides a secure, shielded spot for your valuables. This internal placement ensures your items are protected from the arc and spatter.

Whether you are a hobbyist working in the garage or a professional on the shop line, this jacket offers the perfect balance of protection for low-amperage applications. It effectively prevents burns from light sparks and protects your skin from harmful UV radiation generated by the arc. Upgrade your safety gear with a jacket that works as hard as you do, providing the legendary quality you expect from Lincoln Electric.
