Embracing Innovative Technology for a Secure Future
Molten Metal Splash Industry Application Description:
3H specializes in high-performance Flame Retardant (FR) fabrics for molten metal, designed specifically for the metallurgical, foundry, and metalworking industries to provide superior protection and long-lasting durability, ensuring the safety and comfort of workers in extreme environments.
Workers in the metallurgical and foundry industries are often exposed to extreme operating environments with high-temperature molten metal splashes, intense heat radiation, and flames. 3H's Molten Metal Resistant (MMR) fabrics are made with advanced flame retardant technology and comply with EN ISO 11612 standards D (Aluminium Molten Metal Splash Protection) and E (Ferrous Molten Metal Splash Protection) to protect against the risk of high-temperature burns caused by molten aluminum, ferrous and other metal splashes. Our fabrics offer excellent insulation. Our fabrics have excellent thermal insulation and anti-drip properties, preventing metal adhesion and reducing the risk of penetration, while maintaining breathability and comfort. Whether it's in a steel mill, aluminum smelter, or metal foundry, 3H anti-molten metal fabrics provide workers with the ultimate in reliable protection, ensuring both safety and operational efficiency.

In high-temperature industrial environments such as metallurgy, casting, and welding, molten metal splash is a major hazard for workers. FR (Flame Retardant) molten metal splash protective fabrics are specifically designed to withstand these challenging conditions. They effectively block hot metal droplets and sparks, preventing them from penetrating or igniting workwear, significantly reducing the risk of burns and fire. Their core function lies not only in flame retardancy but also in their high-density structure and specialized material combination, rapidly forming a thermal barrier upon contact with hot metal, providing a critical safety buffer for the wearer.
This type of protective fabric typically utilizes a multi-layer composite process. The outer layer is constructed from high-strength, high-temperature-resistant fibers (such as aramid, flame-retardant cotton, or blends), while the inner layer incorporates a reflective layer such as thermal insulation film or aluminum foil to enhance overall protection. Notable features include excellent molten metal adhesion resistance, ensuring that metal splashes do not adhere to surfaces and continue to transfer heat. They also offer excellent abrasion and tear resistance, making them suitable for high-intensity work environments. Some high-end products also incorporate anti-static and chemical protection features to meet the needs of complex risk scenarios such as the petrochemical and power industries.
FR molten metal splash protection fabrics are widely used in industries such as high-temperature furnace operations in steel mills, aluminum foundries, welding operations, and glass manufacturing. Typical applications include protective aprons, sleeves, and gloves for metallurgical workers, as well as local reinforcement for welding uniforms. In automated production lines, these fabrics can also be made into equipment covers or barrier curtains to prevent molten slag from damaging delicate instruments. With rising industrial safety standards, their application has expanded to fire emergency response and hazardous chemical handling, becoming an indispensable "second layer" in high-temperature, high-risk environments.
FR molten metal splash protection fabrics, through the in-depth integration of technology and materials, transform passive protection into active safety, providing a reliable line of defense against the hazards of hot metal in the industrial sector. As a leading manufacturer of flame-retardant fabrics, 3H Safety Technology Co., Ltd. not only produces high-quality flame-retardant fabrics but also contributes to the development and approval of industry standards. Our expert team has participated in the development of numerous domestic and international flame-retardant fabric standards, and our products are manufactured and tested in strict accordance with these standards.
