Industrial & PPE

From hydraulic press guards to heat resistant gloves, MailleTec has solutions for your shop floor problems.

Our flexible chainmail mesh is strong enough to hold up to industrial environments and has been used in metal refineries, oilfields, truck maintenance shops, lumber mills and manufacturing plants for years.

Made from 304 stainless steel and yet still flexible to wrap around almost anything, MailleTec chainmail mesh has been used as projectile, access, abrasion, heat and splatter guarding.

Our Mesh Is…

Abrasion Resistant
Slash Resistant
Heat Dissipating
Electrical Shielding
Fire Proof
Corrosion Resistant
Able to be hung, draped or wrapped around almost anything
Food Safe
Often easily repaired
Made with over 7200 individually welded rings per sq. ft.
Incredibly strong and puncture resistant
Made from North American 304 stainless steel so it is rust and weld spatter resistant.
Ideal for custom industrial projects. If you think chainmail might solve a machine or operational issue you have, we’d love to hear from you.

Ejection and Projectile Guarding

Our mesh is made with over 7200 individually welded rings per sq. foot and is incredibly strong and puncture resistant. To penetrate, a projectile needs to break one or more rings, which significantly reduces its energy. Even in the case of a breakthrough, force is reduced. Unlike coil guards, which deform after an incident, our projectile guarding isn’t damaged by most impacts and can be repaired instead of replaced.

Hydraulic Press Guards

Our guards are flexible enough to fit almost any sized or shaped machine while still being easy to access. Ideal for hydraulic press guards.

Nova Shield

Nova Shield Gloves

Reduce part handling time. Chainmail’s ability to dissipate heat means your can handle hotter parts longer.
No more messing with tongs – simply pick up the mold, crucible, or stock. Direct handling is faster, safer and more precise.
Gloves can be re-lined or repaired for a small fee, making Nova Shield last almost indefinitely.
Welded chainmail withstands cuts, abrasions, and punctures exceptionally well.

Can withstand contact temperatures of 1200+ Deg C
Radiant heat is also reduced significantly. Hands stay cooler and gloves last longer
Run longer beads. Great for pipe and production welding
Stainless steel construction means most spatter won’t stick
Repairable and can be relined with new base gloves

Custom Machine Guarding

We’ve worked with companies in the manufacturing, lumber, mining and oil industries (among many others!) to help them find solutions for their particular industrial safety and operational needs. Chainmail’s flexibility allows it to easily enclose a machine with non-standard parts. Our mesh can fit odd shaped or sized machines and can be installed in almost any setting. All of our chainmail is 100% stainless steel, welded, puncture and cut resistant, fire proof, heat dissipating and electrical shielding. Chainmail’s abrasion resistance and flexibility make it uniquely capable in a surprising number of projects.
