Steiner 397-6X6 Fiberglass Welding Blanket 6x6 Ft

Product Description

The STEINER 397-6X6 is a coated fiberglass welding blanket designed to protect personnel, equipment, and surrounding work areas from weld spatter, sparks, and radiant heat. Measuring 6 feet high by 6 feet wide, this blanket is constructed from fiberglass fabric with a material weight of 26 oz per square yard and a thickness of 0.05 inches. It carries an FM Approved rating and is rated for continuous use at temperatures up to 1200 degrees F. Side-mounted grommets allow for secure hanging or draping during active welding, cutting, or grinding operations. Welders, pipefitters, and maintenance techs working in fabrication shops or on-site will find this a reliable barrier blanket.

This welding blanket is suited for both light industrial and heavy fabrication environments where spark and spatter containment is required. Typical applications include welding curtain setups, equipment shielding, structural steel work, and pipe welding in confined or adjacent-work-area scenarios. The 6 x 6 foot size makes it practical for covering nearby machinery, flooring, or combustible materials during hot work operations. Facilities requiring FM Approved blankets for compliance with fire protection standards will find this blanket meets that requirement.

Key Features

• FM Approved rating for use in environments with fire protection compliance requirements
• Continuous maximum temperature rating of 1200 degrees F
• 26 oz per square yard coated fiberglass construction for durable spatter and spark resistance
• Side-mounted grommets allow for easy hanging, draping, or securing to fixtures
• Black color absorbs radiant heat and reduces glare in active work areas
• 6 x 6 foot coverage area suits a wide range of shielding and containment setups

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose welding blanket for use in fabrication, maintenance, and construction environments where spark, spatter, and heat shielding is required during hot work operations.

Installation Notes

Welders, pipefitters, and industrial maintenance technicians typically deploy this blanket before initiating any hot work. Use the side grommets to hang the blanket from fixtures, pipe racks, or purpose-built curtain frames to keep it clear of the weld zone. Inspect the blanket before each use for tears, burn-through, or compromised coating that could reduce its protective performance. Follow applicable facility hot work permit procedures and NFPA guidelines when positioning fire blankets and barriers on the job site.
