Description:
A reinforced leather gauntlet for MIG welding. The Portwest A540 pairs a grain leather palm with a split leather back, then adds a fleece lining and aramid stitching for a welding gauntlet that handles heat and daily wear. Extra stitching on the palm, thumb and fingers helps it last for fabricators, maintenance welders and metal shops. See all work gloves.
