Steiner 1084-18WW Flame-resistant Welding Sleeve

Product Description

The STEINER 1084-18WW is a flame-resistant cotton sleeve designed to protect the arms of welders and other trade workers during welding operations and related heat-exposure tasks. Constructed from 9-ounce cotton with elastane plaiting, the sleeve provides lightweight coverage without restricting movement. It measures 18 inches in overall length and fits over the arm with elastic openings at both ends for a secure, tool-free fit. The single-ply design keeps weight down while still meeting flame-resistant requirements for welding environments. Welders, fabricators, and trade professionals working around open flame, spatter, or radiant heat will find this sleeve a practical PPE addition.

This sleeve is intended for use in welding applications where arm protection from spatter, sparks, and incidental flame contact is required. The universal sizing and elastic-end closure make it suitable for a wide range of users across residential, commercial, and industrial job sites. It is commonly used alongside welding jackets, gloves, and other PPE during MIG, TIG, and stick welding work. The lightweight cotton construction is well suited to environments where extended wear comfort matters.

Key Features

• Flame-resistant cotton construction rated at 9 ounces per square yard
• 18-inch overall length provides full forearm and upper arm coverage
• Elastic openings at both ends for a secure, adjustable fit without closures or fasteners
• Elastane plaiting improves stretch and fit retention over repeated use
• Single-ply, lightweight design reduces fatigue during extended welding operations
• No thumb hole keeps the design simple and reduces snagging risk

Compatibility

Designed as a universal-fit flame-resistant sleeve for welding applications. No specific equipment or system compatibility is required for use.

Installation Notes

Slip the sleeve over the arm before beginning any welding or heat-related work, ensuring the elastic ends seat securely above the wrist and at the upper arm. Inspect the sleeve before each use for burns, holes, or degraded elastic that could reduce protection. Flame-resistant garments should not be washed with fabric softeners or bleach, as these can reduce flame-resistant properties. Follow OSHA PPE guidelines and the employer hazard assessment when selecting and using arm protection for welding tasks.
