The MCR Safety 4550 Memphis welder’s foundry glove is designed for high-heat environments where close, dexterous hand protection is needed. This all-cow leather glove uses a clute pattern with a select shoulder 5-inch split leather cuff to enhance protection at the wrist and forearm while maintaining flexibility for grip tasks. It features a leather thumb strap for added reinforcement and a red jersey foam full-sock lining for comfort and insulation beneath the outer leather layer. The glove is sewn with DuPont Kevlar thread, which helps resist seam slippage and contributes to durability during demanding use.
With a full-back design and standard finger style, the glove provides coverage across the back of the hand while the 1.1–1.6 mm split leather ensures sturdy abrasion resistance. The palm is leather, and the cuff is leather, offering a consistent protective profile suitable for welding and foundry tasks where heat exposure is a concern. The glove is specified to protect up to 400°F, a key practical detail for selecting PPE in hot metal-handling applications. The combination of cowhide leather and a Kevlar-stitched seam is intended to balance protection with pliability, supporting precise manipulation of tools in a demanding workshop setting.
When selecting this glove, consider its fit and layering needs, particularly if you’ll be wearing liners or using it in conjunction with other PPE. The product is packaged as a dozen per package, with six dozen per case, so procurement planning can account for stocking levels in a maintenance or manufacturing environment. While the data confirms the glove’s high-heat designation and materials, verify sizing notes and try-on guidance within your own user trials to ensure the best balance of protection and dexterity for your operations.
