Black Stallion FR Welding Jacket: Overview

Black Stallion’s F9-30C/BN line is designed for welders who need protection without the weight of full-leather. The jacket is a shop staple for MIG, TIG, and light stick — especially in warm environments where breathability matters.

Material & Build Quality

• Fabric: 9 oz flame-resistant cotton
• FR Rating: Meets ASTM D6413 (vertical flame test)
• Construction:
  • Snap front with storm flap
  • Adjustable wrist and waist snaps
  • High stand-up welder collar
  • Sewn with FR-thread

Why it works: FR cotton chars rather than melting, giving solid protection for sparks, grinding debris, and low-to-medium heat welding processes.

Fit & Comfort

• Lightweight compared to leather (great for long shifts)
• Good mobility for TIG and detail work
• Heat buildup stays manageable in summer or closed shop spaces
• True-to-size fit with room for layering in winter

Protection Level

Best for:

• MIG (light–medium)
• TIG
• Grinding, fabrication, fit-up
• General shop welding
• Light SMAW

Not recommended for:

• Heavy stick welding
• Carbon arc work
• Heavy spatter environments
  (Leather or a hybrid jacket is the better choice there.)

Who Should Buy It

This jacket hits the sweet spot for:

• Hobby welders wanting a budget FR upgrade
• Fabricators needing breathability + mobility
• Schools and shops issuing PPE to students
• Anyone working in summer heat or high-humidity environments

Safety Notes

• Use ANSI Z87.1-rated eye protection and FR-rated gloves.
• Keep the jacket buttoned fully during welding to avoid UV exposure.
• Inspect FR cotton for burn-through or heavy charring — replace as needed.
• Avoid washing with fabric softeners; they reduce the FR performance.
• Follow Black Stallion’s FR laundering instructions to maintain compliance.

FAQ

Is FR cotton good enough for welding?

Yes — for MIG, TIG, and general shop use. It’s not suitable for heavy stick or high-slag jobs where leather is required.

Does the jacket shrink?

FR cotton can shrink slightly after the first wash. Order true-to-size; most welders do not need to size up.

How long does the FR treatment last?

FR performance is built into the fabric and stays effective when washed correctly (no bleach or softeners).

Is this good for hot-weather welding?

Yes — that’s one of its biggest advantages versus leather.
