The KOSTO Aluskin Ellika women’s protective pants are designed for aluminum smelter, foundry and welding environments. Their flame-resistant fabric helps protect workers exposed to molten metal splashes, flames, heat and electric arc hazards. The lightweight 330 gsm fabric blend and fitted women’s cut support comfort, while the half-elastic back waist provides added flexibility. Nomex-resistant thread and reinforced seams at stress points enhance durability for demanding industrial work.
