KG-114-L - 9 oz Proban FR Cotton Welding Jacket, Large, Navy

Stay Cool and Covered: The 9 oz Cotton Alternative

Let's face it: wearing full leather leathers in the middle of July is miserable. When you're sweating buckets, your concentration slips, and your welds suffer. That's where the KG-114-L Proban Cotton Welding Jacket comes in. This isn't just a standard shop coat; it's a 9-ounce flame-resistant shield designed to keep you safe from sparks without cooking you alive. The Proban treatment chemically alters the cotton fibers to resist burning, so if a stray spark lands on your shoulder, it smolders out rather than turning you into a torch. It’s the perfect daily driver for TIG welders, sheet metal fabricators, and anyone doing light MIG work where you aren't getting showered in molten lava.

The design is all about practicality. It features a 30-inch length that hangs low enough to cover your belt line, so you don't get burned on the stomach when you're reaching up. The front closes with sturdy snaps—no zippers to jam up with grit and no plastic buttons to melt. Plus, if you do catch fire (it happens to the best of us), you can rip those snaps open and shed the jacket in seconds. We know you need a place for your phone or your scribe, so there's a handy inside pocket that keeps your gear safe from spatter.

Finished in a deep Navy Blue, this jacket looks sharp and hides the grease and grime of the shop floor better than the standard bright green jackets. It fits a standard Large size comfortably, allowing enough room for a t-shirt underneath without feeling like a tent. If you are looking to upgrade your PPE game with something that offers decent protection but lets your body breathe, this 9 oz cotton jacket is the way to go. Save the heavy leathers for the overhead stick welding; for everything else, grab this.
