Signature medium-duty welding blanket · Howrah fabrication

Medium-duty welding blankets for Howrah fabrication bays

Bench welding, fixture work and hot jobs near panels need DSZMDWB2.4 — vermiculite coated, brown, non-metallic fabric reinforcement, listed at 900 °C to 1000 °C. That is a different order from heavy DSZVCF stock used on Kolkata dry docks and hull gas cutting. Signature Medium Duty Welding Blanket ships as finished pieces with length and width in metres. Manufactured in Ahmedabad and dispatched to the bay or stores address on your order.

Ship-repair heavy blankets — separate page

Dry docks, hull cutting and Haldia shutdown cover use heavy DSZVCF — not this medium-duty SKU.

Heavy range: Kolkata welding blanket city page and Signature Welding Blanket product page.

Bay jobs that fit DSZMDWB2.4

Plan by welding station and panel proximity — not ship-deck gas cutting. Each row is its own size and quantity line on the RFQ.

Howrah fabrication belt — not the dock front

Procurement may show a Kolkata office while blankets ship to the Howrah bay gate — specification follows the welding job, not the letterhead city.

  • Dasnagar and Liluah

    Howrah fabrication lanes beside foundry traffic

    Bench welding, fixture build and light structural repair with grinding between passes.

    Blanket line: DSZMDWB2.4 default; heavy DSZVCF only when foundry-side spatter persists

  • Belgachia and Salkia

    Engineering shops with panel and control work

    Hot work metres from electrical gear — non-metallic blanket face matters.

    Blanket line: DSZMDWB2.4; do not substitute heavy metallic stock for panel-adjacent jobs

  • Balitikuri and Jangalpur

    MSME welding and repair pockets

    Short campaigns where a blanket shields a single opening or bench.

    Blanket line: Order each bay size separately on the medium-duty PDP

  • Uluberia Industrial Park

    WBIIDC units with in-house fabrication

Guides and policies

Frequently asked questions

Which model do Howrah fabrication bays order on this page?

DSZMDWB2.4 — 2.4 mm, 1300 GSM, vermiculite coated, brown, non-metallic fabric reinforcement, listed at 900 °C to 1000 °C. Enter length and width in metres on the Signature Medium Duty Welding Blanket product page; 1 × 50 m is reference roll size, not the only format.

How is this different from the Kolkata welding blanket city page?

That page centres on heavy DSZVCF blankets for ship repair, dry docks and Haldia shutdowns at 1260 °C to 1760 °C. This page is only medium-duty DSZMDWB2.4 for lighter Howrah bay welding and work near panels — do not treat the heavy page as a substitute SKU list for medium duty.

When should we step up to heavy DSZVCF instead of DSZMDWB2.4?

Gas cutting on hull plate, long shutdown cover on piping, or foundry-side work that keeps a blanket down under heavy spatter belongs on heavy DSZVCF models. Everyday stick or MIG in a fab bay with grinding between passes usually stays on DSZMDWB2.4 unless your procedure specifies heavier build.

Why specify non-metallic reinforcement near switchboards?

DSZMDWB2.4 uses non-metallic fabric reinforcement — no steel wire in the blanket face. Heavy DSZVCF builds carry SS metallic reinforcement, which is the wrong choice when the cover sits against live cabling or panel work in a Howrah shop.

Is DSZ stock available in Kolkata or Howrah?

No local shelf. We manufacture in Ahmedabad and ship to the bay or stores address on the order. Need it urgently? Contact our sales team to discuss your requirement and available dispatch options.

When does a West Bengal order leave Ahmedabad?

Processing is 1–2 business days after payment. Shipping policy courier estimates are 1–3 days local, 2–5 within the state and 3–7 for the rest of India — estimates only. Quotation confirms dispatch, not arrival day.

How do we quote two bay layouts in one RFQ?

One line per finished size — length × width in metres and quantity per size. A second welding station is a second line. Do not mix heavy DSZVCF lines on the same medium-duty RFQ unless stores wants both families on one PO with clear model IDs.

Can we use 800 °C rating from older brochures?

No. Live product data lists 900 °C to 1000 °C for DSZMDWB2.4. Do not copy stale 800 °C starts or fixed 1 × 2 m catalogue sizes — order your L×W on the PDP.

What should welders inspect before reuse?

Check the brown vermiculite face for burn-through, tears or loose reinforcement. Retire blankets with compromised coating or fabric — there is no fixed reuse cycle on the spec sheet.

Do you name shipyards or claim site certifications here?

No. We do not name customer yards or claim site-specific approvals. Company ISO 9001:2015 supports vendor onboarding on /certificates. Put any tender standard on the RFQ for confirmation against live product panels only.

Quoting medium-duty blankets for Howrah fabrication bays?
