Lincoln Electric KH813 Black One Size Flame-Resistant Welding Sleeves

Protects me while stick welding in the overhead position. Even if there’s spatter falling all over my arm these sleeves allow it to just skid off instead of melting into my shirt and burning me. Pretty comfortable, however I am a pretty skinny guy with spaghetti arms so I could use a little bit of a tighter elastic on the top by my shoulder but you get what you get for $10. There are great high quality welding sleeves for the money, you barely notice that you’re wearing them because they’re so lightweight. I have burnt a few holes in them but they are still extremely durable, if you’re positioned bad the arc will tell you lol.

Absolutely worth the money. I like to wear one on my left arm as that gets the most fatter when I weld and it's still holding up great 3 months later. Made out of solid material is definitely fireproof and quality.

So just opened them straight from the mail threw them on went to welding recieved 6/13/20 2:32 p.m al time zone. They seem alright fairly well made. As most said if you have big arms these are not for you. I barely got them past my forearms and had to force them up my bi&tricepts then flex hard to pop a couple threads so they fit nicely. They will probably prematurely fail because of my big arms but hey they work. Super light good for light duty welding like tig and short arc mig. Ive seen some reviews state burn through. They are fire retardant not fire proof fyi. If you want them to last longer get some spray startch like used for ironing clothes with, hang them up and spray them down fairly heavy and let dry. The startch is good for light coating long sleeved cotton shirts used for welding as well. It makes the weld bbs roll off without burn through. Anyways, ive never owned a pair of these before or even a pair of tig mig gloves etc. Ive always dealt with the burns due to being broke during my late teen years of welding. These are super nice though i suggest using for light welding as stated before though and grabbing a revco (bsx) welding jacket for heavier type welding. These are great for hobbiest not so much for full timers that weld for a living other than light duty. Im sure at some point some snatch straps cut down will be needed before long to hold the sleeves up on my arms but overal wont be money wasted. This is my own opinions and thoughts others may differ. Some protection from the uv rays of welding is better than none though.

Just getting into welding, but one thing I knew not to skimp on was protective equipment. I mean, we are talking about high voltage and molten metal here. After finally getting some Argon/CO2 mix gas, I got to lay down some beads and these sleeves did great. Never had anything burn through and I knew that sparks were getting kicked up onto them. I trust these sleeves and will get another set whenever these need replacing, but I expect that to be much later down the road. Very satisfied with my purchase.

Great comfortable sturdy fabric. Worked well with the welder and didn't burn through once. Not too thick so they're comfortable ro wear and can bend arms easily. Would highly recommend.

I don't have huge arms, but these things will barely fit past my elbows.

I read the comments about being small and thought, they'll probably fit me. Now that I've used them. First, they're great. Second, I can see where someone with larger arms would have issue with these. I hope Lincoln Electric reads these, because I think a simple Velcro adjustable strap top and bottom, in conjunction with some elastic (but not around the whole as it is currently) would solve all of their fit/design problems. Like mechanics gloves - elastic with a Velcro strap to cinch down to size. Ok, so will these fit you???? For size comparison, lets get personal. I wear a 16.5" neck 34-35" arm length dress shirts, a Large for all other shirts, I have a 34-36" waist, depending on what I had for lunch, and I am 6'2" - 200lbs. They fit my small 13" office-made biceps and smaller typing-wrists just fine. Since I'm a freckled ginger-ish guy who works indoors, seriously, these will probably save my life from cancer while welding. If you read that thinking, wow, what a tiny sad little man... these wont fit you. Unfortunately they don't help my amateur welds look any better. I have not tried to light them on fire to test the flame resistance, but I did not get burned while welding yet. Lastly, the material is a bit stiff, like burlap, not soft cotton, maybe most like a Carhartt jacket.

I cannot comment on suitability for protection for welding protection. I bought these sleeves as arm protection when doing deep frying when wearing sleeveless outfit. Material : stiff cotton - will not give 100% protection if you get hot oil spilled on your arms -hopefully sufficient to protect from minor splattering oil.

Sitzen sehr gut. Ich habe keine kurzen Arme und doch reicht die Länge um auch mal im T-Shirt zu schweißen, im Sommer, ohne dicke Schweißerjacke. Angenehm zu tragen

Son bastante largas, en mi caso me llegan desde la muñeca a la axila el echo de que sean anchas me permite tener la camisola debajo y no se sienten ajustadas, es cómodo trabajar con ellas, recomendables.

Does what it's supposed to, for a bargain price.

These are great value for the cost. They’re very sturdy and actually hold up very well. Especially when I’m doing wire wheel grinding and you get the little fly away barbs or keeping grinding slag off your arms. They’re not too heavy. Not too hot to wear outside in the summer and as a medium sized guy they fit me great!
