Hello all, can someone suggest any brand of work glove that has heat or fire resistant stitching? so far I've gone through 3 pairs of work gloves when I'm using my angle grinder. it appears that the sparks are destroying the stitching and eventually the fingers come apart. I tried wearing my welding gloves, but they're too bulky for the job. Thanks

I use the cheapest leather uninsulated gloves I can buy in bulk. They may last a day or three, or on the rare occasion a whole week.
