When you start welding, you already know it’s not an easy job. Sparks fly, heat rises, and one wrong move can hurt you. That’s why every welder needs weld jackets, not just for looks but for real protection. At Strongarm Welding, we create weld jackets that protect your body from heat, spatter, and sparks while keeping you comfortable all day.
Our weld jackets are worn by professionals who work long hours in workshops, factories, and industrial sites. They’re tested by real welders, people who understand what it means to stay safe in extreme heat. Whether you’re new to welding or already a pro, a good jacket is the one thing that should always be on you.
Why Weld Jackets Matter
A weld jacket isn’t just another piece of clothing; it’s your safety shield. It protects your chest, arms, and shoulders from flying sparks, burns, and UV light. Without it, you risk injuries every time you weld.
At Strongarm Welding, we design our jackets using high-quality materials that meet global safety standards. Every stitch, every zipper, and every button matters. Because when you’re standing next to hot metal, your jacket is your armor.
Our brand is trusted by welders across workshops, schools, and industries because we combine three things:
-
Protection that meets real-world welding needs
-
Comfort that lets you move easily
-
Durability that lasts for years
Types of Weld Jackets at Strongarm Welding
Every welder has a different style of work. Some weld outdoors, some work indoors. Some handle TIG, others MIG or stick welding. That’s why one jacket can’t fit all. We offer a complete range of welding jackets to match your type of job and comfort level.
1. Leather Welding Jackets
Our leather welding jackets are made from premium cowhide leather. They’re thick, heat-resistant, and perfect for heavy-duty welding like MIG and stick.
Leather naturally blocks heat and sparks better than any other fabric. The jacket feels firm at first but softens with use, molding to your body shape.
It’s the top choice for professional welders who work long hours or deal with intense heat. Many of our customers say their Strongarm leather jacket has lasted years without losing its strength or comfort.
2. FR Welding Jackets
Not every job needs thick leather. For light to medium welding, our FR welding jackets are a smart choice.
“FR” means Flame Resistant. These jackets are made from treated cotton or a cotton-nylon blend that resists fire and melts. They’re lightweight, breathable, and easy to move in, perfect for school projects or indoor workshops.
Like our Product Basic FR Welding Jacket – Green Arc-01 Work Coat 30", they feel soft, they still meet the same safety standards as heavier jackets. It's great when you want protection without overheating.
3. Lightweight Welding Jacket
Sometimes you don’t want heavy protection; you just want something light that still keeps you safe. That’s where the lightweight welding jacket comes in.
It’s easy to wear, doesn’t stick to your skin, and keeps air flowing while you work. It’s ideal for people who weld small projects or work in hot weather.
Despite being light, it still provides solid protection from sparks and mild heat. You’ll barely feel it on your body, yet it keeps you safe all day.
4. Welding Jackets for Winter
Cold weather can make welding even harder. The welding jackets for winter are designed to keep you warm while protecting you from sparks.
They have soft linings and added insulation that hold heat inside your jacket. The outside is still flame-resistant, but the inside feels cozy. You can focus on your work without freezing your arms off in the shop.
These jackets are a favorite among welders who work in outdoor workshops or unheated garages during the winter season.
5. TIG Welding Jacket
TIG welding needs precision. You can’t wear a thick, stiff jacket because you need your arms to move freely. That’s why we made the TIG welding jacket flexible, light, and smooth.
It’s designed to fit your body comfortably while still protecting you from sparks. The sleeves are slim but strong, and the collar sits tight to block heat from reaching your neck.
With this jacket, you can focus on accuracy without worrying about burns or discomfort.

How to Choose the Right Weld Jacket
Choosing the right jacket depends on where and how you work:
-
For Heavy Welding: Go with leather welding jackets. They last long and block high heat.
-
For Light or Indoor Work: Pick an FR welding jacket or lightweight jacket.
-
For Cold Weather: Try welding jackets for winter with insulation.
-
For TIG Welding: Choose the TIG welding jacket for free movement.
Always check the fit. A good jacket should cover your neck and wrists but still let you bend your arms easily.
Maintenance and Care Tips
Your weld jacket can last for years if you take care of it properly:
-
For Leather Jackets: Wipe with a soft damp cloth after each use. Don’t machine wash.
-
For FR Jackets: Wash gently with cold water and mild detergent. Avoid bleach or fabric softener.
-
Always Air Dry: Never dry near an open flame or in a dryer.
-
Store Properly: Hang in a cool, dry place when not in use.
By taking simple care steps, you can extend your jacket’s life and keep it looking fresh.
