276104008 - Miller Classic Cloth FR Cotton Welding Jacket, Royal Blue, 3XL

Miller Electric Classic Cloth Welding Jacket - Royal Blue (XXXL)

The Miller 276104008 is a premium Classic Cloth Welding Jacket tailored for welders requiring a Size XXXL fit. Engineered by Miller Electric, this safety garment represents the ideal solution for applications where flame resistance is required but the heavy weight of leather is unnecessary. The jacket is fashioned from high-quality 9 oz. flame-resistant cotton in a distinct Royal Blue color, offering a professional appearance alongside reliable performance.

Technical Specifications and Safety

This jacket is designed to meet the rigorous demands of industrial environments. The 9 oz. cotton fabric is chemically treated to be flame-resistant, providing a barrier against heat, sparks, and minor spatter. It is particularly well-suited for processes such as Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW/TIG) and low-amperage Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW/MIG), where spatter generation is minimal. The fabric is pre-shrunk, mitigating the risk of shrinkage during laundering and ensuring the specified dimensions (Chest: 54-56 inches) remain consistent throughout the product's life.

Ergonomics and Fit

Ergonomics play a crucial role in welder safety. The Miller Classic Cloth jacket features a Barracuda stand-up collar, a critical design element that shields the welder's neck from UV radiation and hot sparks, areas often left exposed by standard collars. The sleeve cuffs are equipped with fold-in snaps, allowing the wearer to tighten the wrist opening to fit inside gauntlet-style gloves securely. The main closure system consists of five durable snaps that are dielectric and easy to manipulate, even with gloved hands.

Durability and Maintenance

Built for the long haul, the jacket includes finished hems and reinforced stitching at stress points to prevent unraveling. While the FR properties are robust, it is important to follow care instructions to maintain the flame-resistant integrity of the cotton. This jacket serves as an excellent primary layer for shop work or a secondary layer over standard work clothes. Its lightweight nature significantly reduces heat stress, a common hazard in welding operations, thereby promoting longer, safer work periods.
