Description
Steel Grip Thermonol: Aluminized High-Heat Foundry & Extrusion Glove
The Safe-T-Glove Steel Grip Thermonol glove is engineered as a superior defense for personnel working in environments with both intense radiant heat and contact heat exposure, such as foundries, steel mills, and aluminum extruding. This glove expertly combines two distinct high-performance materials to maximize safety and longevity.
Key Protection & Specifications
-
Dual-Hazard Protection: Designed to protect against high radiant heat, molten metal splash, and intermittent contact heat.
-
Max Intermittent Contact Heat: Handles up to 900°F of intermittent contact.
-
Length: 14-inch gauntlet for excellent wrist and forearm protection.
-
Lining: Wool-lined for added insulation and comfort.
-
Stitching: Sewn entirely with Kevlar® thread for maximum seam strength and durability under high heat.
Advanced Material Composition
-
Aluminized Back (Radiant Heat): The back of the glove is constructed from Aluminized Thermonol, a reflective material that bounces away up to 95% of radiant heat, keeping the hand cooler and preventing back-of-hand burns from furnace glow.
-
Thermonol Palm (Contact & Abrasion): The palm features 22-ounce heavyweight DuPont Kevlar® blend material. This dense construction provides exceptional resistance against abrasion and cuts while offering reliable intermittent contact heat protection up to 900°F.
Ideal Work Applications
-
Foundry Operations (Charging, Tapping, Pouring)
-
Steel Mills
-
Aluminum Extruding and other hot metal handling
-
Forging and Heat Treating
Safety Note: While designed for intermittent contact up to 900°F*, this glove is primarily intended for radiant heat reflection and cut/abrasion resistance.*
