Fun Fact #33: Did you know that welders in the 1940s used to wear leather aprons because welding jackets hadn't been invented yet?

by Tony Solano 19 Dec 2024 0 comments

The Evolution of Welding Gear

Back in the 1940s, before the invention of modern welding jackets, welders wore thick leather aprons to protect themselves from sparks, heat, and molten metal. The leather offered the best available protection at the time, though it wasn’t as comprehensive as today’s full-body protective welding gear. Over the years, welding gear has evolved into the flame-resistant jackets and helmets we see today, offering better mobility, comfort, and safety for welders working with high temperatures.


How Welding Gear Has Evolved

  • From Aprons to Jackets: Welders initially used aprons and thick gloves made of leather, but as welding became more industrialized, full jackets were designed to protect the arms and torso.

  • Welding Helmets: Early welding masks were much simpler, often just shields held by hand. Modern welding helmets now feature auto-darkening lenses, protecting welders from arc flashes while providing better visibility.
