The FR Arc Cut D13 Level 2 Glove offers reliable, high-performance protection against Arc Flash hazards, flames, and mechanical risks. Developed with inherent flame-resistant properties, it is specifically designed to safeguard workers from the intense thermal energy of an Arc Flash event (ATPV 9.5 cal/cm², Level 2), significantly reducing the risk of serious burns.
The 13-gauge knitted liner, made from a unique aramid-based FR yarn, provides cut resistance to Level D while maintaining excellent dexterity and tactile control for precision handling in high-risk environments. Its flame-resistant neoprene-coated palm delivers superior grip and control, even in challenging conditions, without compromising comfort or flexibility.
