The Weldas 10-1009 Soft Touch™ TIG Glove is a staple in the welding industry, recognized for its superior construction and ergonomic design. This glove is specifically categorized as a Type B welding glove (according to EN 12477 standards), meaning it prioritizes dexterity for TIG (GTAW) welding applications. The primary material is high-grade top-grain goatskin, selected for its exceptional tensile strength and softness. This allows the welder to feel the TIG torch switch and filler rod with high precision, a critical factor in producing high-quality welds.
Structurally, the glove is built to last. It utilizes a seamless index finger construction, which is crucial for TIG welding as it provides an unobstructed feel when feeding wire. The entire glove is stitched with Kevlar® thread, offering superior resistance to heat, flame, and abrasion compared to standard cotton or nylon stitching. The 5-inch cuff is made from side-split cowhide, providing a tougher barrier against abrasion and radiant heat on the forearm, where flexibility is less critical than protection.
The "Soft Touch" designation refers to the glove's ability to minimize hand fatigue. The pliable leather conforms to the hand's shape, and the Keystone thumb inset allows for independent movement of the thumb, reducing the strain on the hand muscles during repetitive gripping actions. Available in size Large, this model fits most standard hand sizes comfortably while maintaining a snug fit essential for safety.
