Why it works
Protection where it counts
Reflects radiant heat
The aluminised outer reflects radiant heat and the lining cuts down heat conducted through to your hand.
Kevlar-lined grip
A para-aramid palm gives good grip and dexterity without giving up cut resistance.
EN 388 and EN 407 certified
Tested to EN 388 for mechanical risks and EN 407 for heat and flame, so the rating is independently verified.
Overview
