Blankets have been tested according to specifications of the European standards EN 13501-1 and do not contain any asbestos or ceramic fibres. Cepro recommends using multiple layers and to use the blanket at an angle to the welding arc, as this provides the best protection.<br>When using any welding blanket, the welder must remember theses are consumable items. If you have continual use for a blanket its important to buy a higher quality, thicker blanket which will last longer and give a better level of protection in the long run.<\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading295_0792a4-fc, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading295_0792a4-fc[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading295_0792a4-fc\"]{text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading295_0792a4-fc mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading295_0792a4-fc[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading295_0792a4-fc\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading295_0792a4-fc wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading295_0792a4-fc\"><strong>Cepro Range<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<style>.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading295_4ba541-85, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading295_4ba541-85[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading295_4ba541-85\"]{text-align:center;font-style:normal;}.wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading295_4ba541-85 mark.kt-highlight, .wp-block-kadence-advancedheading.kt-adv-heading295_4ba541-85[data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading295_4ba541-85\"] mark.kt-highlight{font-style:normal;color:#f76a0c;padding-top:0px;padding-right:0px;padding-bottom:0px;padding-left:0px;}<\/style>\n<p class=\"kt-adv-heading295_4ba541-85 wp-block-kadence-advancedheading\" data-kb-block=\"kb-adv-heading295_4ba541-85\"><strong>Economy Welding Blankets <\/strong>\u2013 These welding blankets are made with top quality material whilst also a very competitive price.
