Flame- and Arc-Flash-Protection Knee Pads
These knee pads meet NFPA 70E standards for protection against electrical arc flashes for personal protection equipment (PPE) Category 2. Check the PPE category and minimum arc rating provided for your workplace, and then select all required clothing and personal protective equipment to meet the minimum arc rating. Arc rating measures a garment’s ability to insulate the wearer from burns; the higher the arc rating, the greater the flame resistance. These pads have a hard plastic cap that reduces resistance, making it easy to slide on hard surfaces. They have two adjustable buckles to modify the fit.

Welding Pads
Use these thick pads to cushion knees or brace elbows during long welding runs. They’re covered in a fiberglass fabric that holds up to sparks and spatter. For added protection, the top of the pad has a second layer of silicone-coated fiberglass that resists abrasion and tears. The foam filling is soft enough to kneel on but rigid enough to prop your arms when you’re welding in an awkward position. To carry these pads between jobs, fold them in half and secure with the hook and loop tabs at each end. You can also join pads end-to-end and create a larger work surface.
