FAQs
What type of welding are these gloves best suited for?
These gloves are specifically designed and optimized for TIG welding.
How should I clean these welding gloves?
Wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid soaking or using harsh chemicals. Allow to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
What is the purpose of the 6" chrome cuff?
The 6" chrome cuff provides extended protection for your forearm and wrist area against heat, sparks, and abrasion.
Can these gloves be used for MIG or Stick welding?
While they offer general protection, they are specifically engineered for TIG welding. For MIG or Stick welding, gloves with different material compositions and features might be more suitable depending on the amperage and heat levels involved.
How many pairs of gloves are included in the pack?
The pack contains 10 pairs of gloves.
What material are the gloves made from?
The gloves are made from durable, high-grade materials suitable for welding protection.
What should I do if the gloves feel stiff?
If the gloves feel stiff, they may need a break-in period. You can also try conditioning the exterior leather sparingly, avoiding the inner lining. Ensure they are stored properly and not exposed to excessive heat or moisture.
Troubleshooting
Gloves feel too tight and restrict movement.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If they are new, they may need a short break-in period. Try wearing them for a short duration during less intricate tasks to allow the material to flex.
Reduced dexterity after prolonged use.
Check for any debris or moisture inside the glove. If the material feels stiff, it may require conditioning (use appropriate leather conditioner sparingly, avoiding the inner lining). Ensure the cuff is not overly restricting blood flow.
Visible wear and tear on the cuff or fingertips.
This indicates normal wear for the specific application. Inspect for any punctures or significant thinning. If the protective integrity is compromised, replace the pair to maintain safety standards.
Discomfort from the chrome cuff rubbing.
Ensure the cuff is positioned correctly over your sleeve or protective clothing. If irritation persists, consider wearing a thin liner glove underneath or ensure the outer garment provides a smooth transition.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These gloves require no setup. They are ready to wear straight from the packaging. Ensure you select the correct size for a comfortable and secure fit.
Compatibility: Designed specifically for TIG welding, these gloves are compatible with most TIG welding processes and equipment. They are intended for hand and forearm protection during welding operations and should not be used for handling extremely hot materials directly or for protection against electrical hazards.
Care: To maximize the lifespan of your Clarik SWP 1941 gloves:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a slightly damp cloth to remove surface dirt or dust. Avoid soaking the gloves or using harsh detergents, as this can degrade the leather and protective materials.
- Drying: If the gloves become wet, allow them to air dry naturally at room temperature. Do not use direct heat sources like heaters or ovens, as this can cause the material to crack or shrink.
- Storage: Store the gloves in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and chemicals. Hanging them or laying them flat is recommended to maintain their shape. Periodically check the gloves for any signs of wear, such as rips, tears, or thinning material, and replace them if compromised.
