Thermal and mechanical protection

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

Bennett Safetywear’s new POLYSAFE- HT range of high performance gloves offers enhanced levels of both thermal and mechanical protection without compromising the dexterity, flexibility and comfort which have been long associated with their well-known POLYSAFE brand.

Manufactured at Bennett Safetywear's UK facility from a low-lint black para-aramid yarn, the POLYSAFE-HT range provides EN 407 Level 3 contact heat (up to 22 seconds @ 350°C, well in excess of the threshold time) and Level 4 convective heat protection, whilst affording the maximum levels achievable for both cut- and tear-resistance (levels 5 and 4 respectively) according to EN388.

In addition to the standard model with functional thermal lining, the range includes a version with a waterproof breathable membrane for use with liquids, including protection against steam burns, and a version with a waterproof and chemical nitrile resistant lining. A variety of lengths are available.

In addition to industrial applications, these gloves are suited for use in catering environments due to their impressive heat protection combined with low lint.
