36 Kevlar Lined Welding Gloves Starting at $8.63
Upgrade your protection with Kevlar® lined welding gloves from Welder Supply. While standard cotton linings offer basic comfort, a Kevlar lining provides a dual layer of defense: superior insulation against extreme heat and ANSI-rated cut resistance to protect your hands from sharp metal edges and jagged slag. We carry top brands like Tillman and Revco Black Stallion that combine this advanced lining with premium leathers for the ultimate safety gear.

Why Choose Kevlar® Lined Welding Gloves?
Kevlar® is best known for its use in bulletproof vests, but in the welding world, it serves two critical purposes: Heat Isolation and Cut Resistance. A Kevlar lining does not melt or drip when exposed to high heat, making it safer than synthetic polyester blends. Furthermore, for welders handling sheet metal or grinding sharp edges, a Kevlar liner acts as a barrier against lacerations.
Kevlar Lining vs. Kevlar Stitching: What's the Difference?
It is important to distinguish between the two features, although the best gloves often have both:
- Kevlar Stitching: Refers to the thread used to sew the glove seams. Kevlar thread is flame-resistant and won't burn away under UV radiation or sparks, preventing the glove from falling apart.
- Kevlar Lining: Refers to the internal layer touching your hand. This provides the cut/puncture resistance and extra thermal barrier.
ANSI Cut Ratings Explained
Many of our Kevlar-lined gloves, such as the Miller Cut-Resistant MIG series, carry an ANSI cut rating (typically A2 to A5).
- ANSI A2-A3: Good for general material handling and light assembly.
- ANSI A4-A5: Recommended for heavy fabrication where handling jagged metal, glass, or heavy scrap is common.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do Kevlar lined gloves protect against electric shock?
While dry leather and Kevlar offer some electrical resistance, they are not rated as "electrical insulating gloves." Always follow proper safety protocols and ensure your gloves are dry to minimize the risk of shock.
Are Kevlar gloves washable?
Yes, Kevlar fiber itself is washable and does not lose its cut-resistant properties. However, since the outer shell is leather (cowhide, goatskin, etc.), you should use a specialized leather cleaner rather than soaking them in a washing machine, which can stiffen the leather.
Is Kevlar warmer than wool or cotton?
Kevlar provides excellent thermal insulation (heat resistance) without the bulk of thick wool. It is generally cooler and lighter than a heavy wool liner, but offers significantly more protection against contact heat.
