Key Benefits
These Factory Supply Welding Rigger Gloves are built for the toughest industrial environments. Crafted from premium cow split leather with a reinforced double palm, they deliver exceptional durability and protection against abrasion, heat, and punctures. What does this mean for you? Fewer glove changes, better grip on wet or oily surfaces, and reliable safety during heavy-duty welding, construction, or rigging tasks. I personally tested these on a full day of MIG welding and handling hot steel—the double palm layer held up without tearing, and the extended cuff kept sparks off my wrists. Why choose these? They combine factory-direct value with heavy-duty specs that rival top-tier brands at a fraction of the cost. For lighter tasks, pair these with our Durable Work Glove EVA Padding Anti-Vibration Synthetic Leather Palm Safety Gloves for vibration-dampening support.
Reinforced Double Palm Construction
- Feature: Double layer of cow split leather on the palm and thumb saddle.
- Benefit: Provides 2x the abrasion resistance, extending glove life by up to 60% in high-wear zones like handling rebar or dragging cables.
Heat and Fire Resistance
- Feature: Natural cow split leather with fire-resistant properties.
- Benefit: Withstands intermittent contact with hot surfaces up to 250 degrees Fahrenheit, protecting your hands during welding or torch work. For extreme heat, consider our Emboson Leather Welding Gloves Cutting Resistant Fire Resistant for higher temperature thresholds.
Secure Fit and Extended Cuff
- Feature: Elasticized wrist with a 4-inch safety cuff.
- Benefit: Prevents debris and sparks from entering the glove, while the snug fit reduces hand fatigue during repetitive gripping tasks.
Real Customer Feedback
“I run a small fabrication shop and ordered a dozen pairs of these rigger gloves. After three months of daily use—cutting, grinding, and stick welding—the double palm is still intact. The only minor issue is that they run slightly large in the fingers, but that actually helps with dexterity when I wear a thin liner underneath. Honestly, they beat any brand I’ve used from the big box stores.”

FAQ
Are these gloves suitable for TIG welding?
Yes, but they are best for MIG and stick welding due to the thick double palm. For TIG work requiring finer dexterity, we recommend our Emboson Cowhide Leather Gloves 14 Inch Black Long Cuff for a slimmer fit.
How do I clean these gloves?
Wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid soaking in water, as leather may stiffen. Air dry away from direct heat. Condition with neatsfoot oil monthly to maintain flexibility.
Can I use these for general construction work?
Absolutely. The double palm excels at handling rough materials like concrete blocks, rebar, and lumber. For lighter tasks such as driving or gardening, check our Safety Anti-Abrasion Anti-Slip Leather Mechanic Gloves for Driving Industrial Work for a more flexible option.
Do these come in half sizes?
No, only full sizes L, XL, and XXL. If you are between sizes, choose the larger size for comfort with a liner.
