TOPDC Welding Gloves 14 Inches Fire/Heat Resistant Leather For Mig,Tig,Stick,Forge,BBQ,Grill, Fireplace,Wood Stove, Furnace,Pot,Oven

Teaching my boy to weld and needed a second pair of gloves. These were more affordable than picking up some name brand ones from our welding supply shop so I grabbed them. They are nice and thick and seem well made. They are a little bigger than I thought they would be as far as fit but my son's hands are bigger and they fit him perfect so I guess he can have the new gloves and I'll keep using my old ones. As far as function and protection, they perform exactly as I would expect any decent pair of welding gloves to.

Now that I'm doing much more out of position stick welding, and much longer welds, I appreciate having these gloves. Great heat protection (as long as I'm being responsible) and my sweaty hands don't yank out the lining when I take them off. The only thing is I have big bear paw hands and need another size up from XL, but once these broke in, they were good to go--even though it takes a while to wiggle into them. They are worth it, though.

I use them for arc welding class. They are pretty durable, and you smell burning leather far before you start to feel heat in your hands. They have held up pretty well, but after a semester (4 months) of class, my right hand (dominant hand) glove is looking pretty rough. That's due to my inexperience and my bad habit of trying to pick up work pieces with my glove when I should be using my pliers instead. Like I said, you smell burning leather well before you start to feel it in your hands, and that's more than enough of an indicator for you to stop and figure out another way to do what you're doing. I'll upload pictures of the gloves later.The dexterity while wearing the gloves is ok. I am able to maneuver the electrode holder pretty well. My trick to make sure the gloves go all the way on my hand is to hold my jacket sleeves while I pull the glove on. This helps make sure my welding jacket sleeves don't push the glove off.There's probably better welding gloves out there, but for the price these are hard to beat, especially if you're a beginner and you have to buy all your own PPE like me.

They are more flexible than a heavy welding glove but did just fine for welding an exhaust up yesterday.I will update this review when this pair finally is burnt out and no longer useful

Exactly what I need

Great price, quick delivery. Quality item

Great Product

Got these to replace my first pair for welding class. The longer covers better for slag sneaking under your gloves. Also, they’re VERY insulated. Caught myself hold t joints bare gloves for minutes when my old pair would have started to stinging my fingers in seconds
