Fireblanket Overview
Silco Shield® Fireblanket is designed to provide protection from the hazards of high heat, sparks and flame.

This fiberglass cloth blanket is made from woven yarns in a flexible substrate, it is then coated with a high-grade silicone rubber, making it perfect for a welding curtain. Fireblanket is used to provide shielding for worker life safety as well as protection of equipment, hoses and other critical components.
